Indeed, although there are some who think that English should be
frozen within the strictures of 19th century grammarians.
We're not French for God's sake.
We did inherit a lot of their words, however. Including "biscuit".
What's this got to do with the fact that the BBC are a bunch of >>>parasitic, pyschopathic liars?
The mere act of reporting a scientist's speculation which, with
hindsight, was inaccurate does not make anyone a liar; parasitic, >>pathological or otherwise. Perhaps you should explain that to Dyler
Turden or whatever his name is.
Hindsight be blowed. These parasitic liars *knew* there was no
substance to the claim at the time they ran the story.
It's hardly
surprising the public are so ill-informed, having to rely on sources
like the BBC for their news.

As Karl Marx wrote: "At a certain stage of development, the material
productive forces of society come into conflict with the existing
relations of production or - this merely expresses the same thing in
legal terms -
with the property relations within the framework of which they have
operated hitherto. From forms of development of the productive forces
these relations turn into their fetters. Then begins an era of social
revolution."
He wasn't right.
So far he has been. Revolution to follow :-)
I have yet to find Karl Marx right on anything.

The BBC exists to help mould favourable views of Marx’s so-called
‘social revolution’, assisted by the promoting of those movements aimed
at the dismantling of society into competing fragments. ‘Climate change’
helps by controlling and restricting behaviour and the focussing on
irrelevant minutiae such as ‘Have I put too much water in the kettle and
killed a polar bear?’.
