He'll be on Shelagh's show next week to talk about how it was a huge misrepresentation. @lbc.co.uk

As much as Ken is correct, many of Reform's cult fans don't care about it, since incompetence is a feature of their lives.

That being said, I do think Streeting is Labour's best chance (currently) of winning the next election. 4 years is a long time though. Someone else could emerge.

Nick Ferrari and Natasha Clark fawning over Wes Streeting is nothing but a ruse to destabilise the government. I hope he doesn't let it to get to his head.

My favorite Donald Trump fact is that in 2016, there was a leak of a conversation during an Access Hollywood interview where what he said about his treatment of women was so egregious that the interviewer lost his job. Then Donald Trump went on to be elected president. Twice.

Nick Ferrari to Lisa Nandy when talking about her partnership with King Charles and Idris Elba: "I'm very fond of two of those three!" *Chortle, chortle, snort* Why do you think Ferrari isn't "fond of" Idris Elba? (I can think of three reasons) Answers on a postcard... @lbc.co.uk

Exactly this

The actual report says (on page 1 no less): "There is no single solution that will address all the factors that affected Sara, and this review has resisted simplistic responses to the complex set of circumstances of Sara’s life and death."

Which element of this do you think Nick Ferrari is focusing on? Ignoring the multiple serious failings along the way from actual authorities, he focuses on the racism element. @lbc.co.uk

The soft pedaling language being used to describe the men in the Epstein files is enraging. They didn’t “have sex with underage girls”. They raped them. Sex implies consent. The survivors deserve better than this. Use the correct language. Say what these men did.

Reform Ltd on BBC Question Time again tonight. Tell me again how the BBC isn’t the marketing arm of Farage’s party?

Remember Virginia.🕊️

There has now been 9 episodes of #BBCQT since it returned from its summer break A Reform representative/mouthpiece has appeared on 5 of them: Kruger - Nov 13 Goodwin - Oct 30 Dorries - Oct 23 Yusuf - Oct 9 Tice - Sept 25 But please tell me more about the BBC’s left wing bias

You realize his guilt when the most litigious guy on the planet isn’t making lawsuit threats.

It’s 5:45 EST and the Sherbet Pervert hasn’t Truthed a single time today. Something must really be bothering him.

The BBC saga is now Keir Starmer's fault according to Ben Kentish. @lbc.co.uk

I have to give Iain Dale props for getting Dimbleby and Oborne on to completely shut his entire worldview on Israel down. It's just a shame he or many other presenters don't listen and/or gaslight with less erudite or famous contributors who make EXACTLY the same points. @lbc.co.uk

I call BS on this. No-one fears being called racist if you're not actually a racist. More right wing claptrap. www.lbc.co.uk/article/murd...

Epstein thought trump was gross.

For all of those idiot (mostly naive, centrist, establishment) journos who spent years querying whether the "kompromat" idea was real.

Prediction: Any AI job losses will all be Labour and Keir Starmer's fault. @lbc.co.uk

"But we must compete with the oth-" That's just it. You don't. You are THE public broadcaster. No other body shares your mission. Why add to the noise? The BBC has an opportunity to say "you've heard all the breathless gossip - tune in at 6pm for the facts". To bring light rather than heat.

Might as well just get Starmer's replacement in now.

Re this caller saying the billionaire class being "in them": No tin foil hats necessary. @mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk

To knit together two stories: through intimidation, litigation & extortion, Trump is clearly trying to create a media ecosystem where nobody asks him about Epstein - or indeed anything discomfiting. It is appalling to see so many UK media individuals & institutions aiding & abetting his corruption.

Concrete evidence that "Mad" Mike Graham has been sacked. #Racist

This is how fake accounts are driving division over on X What a shame that the UK's Online Safety Bill doesn't protect our democracy from division online

The BBC is in crisis in the same way that GB News would be if you put Owen Jones on the board armed with a veto and plenty of coffee.

I'm glad James noticed himself, but he's being obnoxious with his base this morning...

And Starmer has definitely shortened his days in office with what happened last night... This might happen before May...

Right wing media like Wes Streeting. Even more so this morning. Ferrari and his callers were just singing his praises. So yeah, manoeuvres are clearly afoot. @lbc.co.uk

I'm not about to go up against Joshua Rozenberg on legal analysis, but his assessment on Radio 4 right now seems a bit odd. First, BBC player *isn't* available in Florida, is it? That's why you need a vpn to watch the Beeb there.

You may have missed this gem yesterday. From which we learn that: 1. Betting shops are really good for the mental health of isolated people. 2. Most drug-takers are not a problem. 3. Kids put tuppence in slot machines in the hope of getting rich. 4. Farage probably has a gambling industry donor.

Thread 🧵 | My Experience with Bullying #AntiBullyingWeek 1/8 Everyone says school days are “the best days of your life.” I wish that were true. Here’s what I went through.

Went on LBC News earlier to discuss the BBC shambles. I said the BBC has kowtowed to Trump in the US and conservative outlets here - both of which want the Beeb dead. Two of the most senior people quit over a 10-second clip using Trump’s exact words, albeit put closer together than he’d like.

Trump and his cronies have the BBC in their sights. Leaders can’t stay silent while one of our great institutions is attacked. We must defend its independence, end political appointments, and remove Robbie Gibb from the Board.

Notable that the supposedly “patriotic” wing of British politics wants to destroy / defund almost all of our national institutions

Similar to what I tweeted the other day, I'd be more interested in a Sky News investigation into bias at the BBC. Specifically the news/politics output across TV and flagship radio (i.e. not local). That would include: - Key staff - Key programmes - Panel balance - Transparency of guest funding

A centrist caller to Shelagh when asked about the potential of anti-BBC agents working for the BBC: "I tend to avoid conspiracy theories when I can" This is "progressive" or "centrist" ignorance. And people like him are partly responsible for this mess. UK media is full of this. @lbc.co.uk

We cannot, repeat cannot allow this man to become the PM. Forget all your fantasy politicians - the left needs to unite and vote accordingly.

Incidentally, I don't think I notice a black person at that event, other than Aurora. And this is the second time recently she gets booed at one of their pressers.

A remarkable choice of booking...

If you have a doubt the MAGA attack on the BBC is not co-ordinated, read what GB News owner told the US “We need you to come and save us. To rescue us … You are making America great again… We need to make Britain great again” subscribe.bylinetimes.com/edition/79/a...

There isn’t much evidence that layoffs are being caused by AI taking people’s jobs. For big tech, such as Amazon’s recent layoffs, the reason seems to be a combination of cutting headcount to balance increased spending on AI infrastructure and anticipation of (not realized) AI productivity gains.

Just occurred that the BBC is the most literal example of Conquest's third law in that it is actually run by a cabal of its enemies.

Its decision to leave the Tory appointees in post at the BBC is one of so many Labour have made that I can't begin to understand. Any guesses?

Caller to Shelagh just now: "You have to keep quiet if you're a Tory working for the BBC or you won't get promoted." Shelagh's response: **TUMBLEWEED** Not a peep about: Robbie Gibb, Tim Davie, Richard Sharp, Samir Shah, Kuenssberg, Chris Mason, Nick Robinson etc Criminal omission. @lbc.co.uk
