"Abigail from Dewsbury" is a legend. I think she's on here too... She understands what's happening. The surge in Reform's success isn't organic. It's a combination of bot farms/computational propaganda with good old fashioned British media support. @lbc.co.uk

A very long and important THREAD - The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974. And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself. Not drugs. Not terrorism. Not "democracy." 1/

Of course, I was right. Tice all over the Sunday morning rounds defending Trump. "Robert from Dulwich" is now Miraj's first caller - currently also fellating Trump live on air. He's been calling the extremist presenters since Maajid Nutwaz. @lbc.co.uk

Two silver lining of Trump's behaviour: 1) We're more likely than ever to rejoin the EU. 2) Nazi Nige has less chance of becoming PM. I just feel terrible for all of the people's lives he's destroyinG. He's already trashed the USA beyond recognition. #Trump

I do like (broadly) what Polanski is doing, but didn't he talk about asking nicely for Putin to put his nuclear arms down? This is what I mean about the shameless attacks on Starmer.

Oh no! Nick Abbot’s going to do a serious show, isn’t he?

Everyone will be shocked for tonight, but the far right media are already preparing the propaganda lines and they'll be all over your TV/radio waves by tomorrow 9am. Listen out for: 1) Spurious rationalisations 2) 'Maduro was a tyrant anyway' 3) 'Trump has done a good thinf for the world' #Trump

Even GB News panellists are laughing at the idea of Trump/US running Venezuela. That's how batshit it is. #Epstein

I'm standing by this.

Jan 1. Jan 3.

Funny to hear the British media pretend any of this is surprising, despite the fact that most people with eyes and brains knew this was going to happen. All to stop us finding out who else was involved in his and Epstein's international grooming gang ring. #Trump #Venezuela

Starmer won't be able to win either way: 1) Stand up to Trump's actions - criticised by far right ecosystem and damage economy. 2) Use diplomacy - criticised by everyone on left and potentially lose even more voters. 3) Support Trump - criticised by EVERYONE (disingenuously by the far right)

Wow, so he really IS still smarting over that Nobel Peace Prize loss.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Events in Venezuela? Because of the Epstein files.

I’m starting to think that every option Trump is considering is just a list of things he can do to when he needs a distraction.

The Jack Smith testimony released yesterday was pretty damning. No-one's talking about that either.

Kidnapping the leader of a foreign state without any declaration of war and announcing it via social media is full-on rogue state stuff. From the world’s number one superpower.

Nigel Farage called Trump a “global peacemaker” who would prevent a “endless series of foreign wars” Boris Johnson said he would make the world "safe and stable" Why Trump's apologists were wrong and why those warning about the grave threat he poses were right www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/trumps-ill...

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

It's really rich for Trump to be waxing lyrical on the ills of the Iranian regime, when his ICE agents are doing equally despicable things to US citizens. If you haven't seen the multitude of videos of ICE's behaviour, then change your news source/s, as they're omitting to show you. #ICE #Fascist

And Lewis's narratives are very clever and historically connected, but I just don't think they matter where Trump is concerned. All this "I'm the peace president" and "there were no wars when Trump was in charge!!!" was just straight propaganda. Peddled by journalists the world over.

I know journalists have to try and come up with clever sounding narratives, but in this case the answer is simple: Trump does what he wants and almost no-one can stop him. He's backed by the richest people on the planet with the loudest megaphones. @lbc.co.uk @lewisgoodall.com

America is nothing but a rogue state now. If it suited the criminal he would not hesitate to kidnap someone in Europe or anywhere else and there is no working mechanism in America to stop this man.

I believe the US does have that right to defend herself.

It's not a stretch to assume that the Venezuela/Iran warmongering is a deflection from people talking about you know who. #YesWeAreStillTalkingAboutJeffreyEpstein

The brother was right as rain. #Venezuela #TrumpIsAWarlord

Woman on LBC now is referring to her personal ChatGPT bot as "he" and "him". The funny thing, she seemed to understand its dangers, but didn't seem to understand that she had **clearly** succumbed to them. Very worrying. I'd never heard someone so evidently captured by an LLM. @lbc.co.uk

LBC rn: "If you're a non-medical professional and wouldn't know how to spell ADHD, please call up and tell us how you think it's being overdiagnosed". @lbc.co.uk

This @nytimes.com account of the Trump administration's chaotic & disastrous Ukraine policy is great journalism; but for European readers, it shd end any lingering idea that we cd rely on the US if Russia attacked us: no-one around Trump cares about European security. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Not Somali.

This is the kind of story that slips by most broadcast outlets without someone like JOB on @lbc.co.uk. Most of them will be paid to "both sides" this, and start talking about Starmer and him defending Hizb ut-Tahrir 17 years ago (before he was an MP).

And, unlike toilet roll you don't even have to see it to know it's full of sh*t!

Starmer got called a traitor for doing his job - now Tories are sucking up to a sanctioned Russian oligarch and they say f**k all 👇 #ukpolitics politicsintheuk.substack.com/p/starmer-go...

Really pleased to hear someone call in and nominate Daley Thompson for a knighthood. It's criminal he's not got one (he is a CBE). Easily one of Britain's greatest track and field athletes. 4x WR 2x Olympic Gold 2x Euro Gold 1x World Gold 3x Commonwealth Gold Longest unbeaten record: 9 years .

This is the first year in about 16 (sans Tories) where there's no *obvious or credible* outrage about the New Year Honours List.

It always annoys me when people say "The British Empire also did a lot of good." It would not be acceptable to say that about any other murderous empires. (Unless any Germans want tell me different). @iaindale.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk

Seems par for the course these days. The BBC are complicit in the rise of the far right. Can you imagine the BBC platforming Mengeles or Hitler in the 1930s? Our species is regressing and rapidly it seems.

Chris Philp used that "scumbag" line to describe Alaa Abd Al-Fatteh on every news outlet this morning. Sadly he didn't have the same energy when describing Britain's favourite racist politician.

Just the BBC's flagship news programme platforming a noted white supremacist. Read more about him here: bylinetimes.com/2025/09/24/c... www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WjE...

Does Iain Dale listen to any news from outside of the UK? The man is super delusional about Trump's warmongering. He thinks that just because Trump hasn't "invaded" anywhere he doesn't have those designs. Proper clown. @iaindale.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk

2025: Liz Truss criticising Keir Starmer over the release of Alaa Abd El-Fattah 2022: Liz Truss as Foreign Secretary trying to secure the release of Alaa Abd El-Fattah

My guess is he's paid as the "extreme right/right wing conspiracy" representative at @lbc.co.uk.

Awaiting a Trump rant about beautiful ladies and freedom of speech. www.vanityfair.com/style/2021/1...

IF IT REALLY IS NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN THEN WHY THE FUCK DOES THE FILM HAVE LIKE 14 OLD MEN IN IT ?

If I had to guess, I would say he calls @alimiraj.bsky.social and Shelagh Fogarty the most. Go figure.

According to "Robert from Dulwich", Starmer is allowing an Egyptian extremist to come to the UK so he can win votes from the "pockets of extremists" in the UK. This is one of @lbc.co.uk's most frequent callers - specifically to the presenters who have extreme views (on domestic AND foreign policy).

Ali Farage

When Trump crumbles, Reform crumble and will revert to authoritarian Conservatism to survive. I expect a major propaganda wave after the May elections (with BBC leading), but thanks to the "Dulwich 28", Nazi Nige is a lot less likely to become PM than be was at the start of 2025. Happy New Year!

How convenient. Ali Miraj is doing his usual "pretend to care about the power of the big tech broligarchy" schtick! Then a pro-Russian caller rings in to spout utter propaganda against the European Union. This allows him to start waffling about Putinik Pavel Durov. @lbc.co.uk
