Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms. He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

Robbie Gibb who cancelled a BBC investigation into Farage's Leave dot EU campaign shortly before the EU Ref Arron Banks thanked him for it "Robbie Gibb is being quite helpful and says he’s trying to hose it down." - @channel4news.bsky.social in 2019

The first step towards saving our precious BBC: remove Robbie Gibb from the board | Ed Davey

I've started a petition – will you sign it? Remove Robbie Gibb from the Board of the BBC. Sir Robbie Gibb has long been regarded as a malign influence within BBC News and is widely held responsible for the departure of many excellent journalists from the organisation.

Should Gibb be sacked? yes, obviously. He's an abomination of basic journalistic standards. His GB News channel spreads conspiracy theory & disinformation. His Jewish Chronicle newspaper spreads invented stories. He is plainly trying to undermine the BBC so it's as bad as everything else he touches.

🎯 Davey is spot on. "We can have criticism of the BBC, but within that, we need to recognise how valuable an institution it is [and how] precious to our country. And that's one of the reasons why people like President Trump and Nigel Farage, want to undermine the BBC." 👏🏽~AA

Elon is a raving lunatic.

Powerful and moving interview with Virginia Giuffre's brother Sky and sister-in-law Amanda: "He's just Andrew. He's no longer a prince... This normal girl, from a normal family, has taken down a prince. We are so proud of her." "She was extraordinary. She did the extraordinary."

@meidastouch.com Prince Andrew hosted Epstein, Maxwell and Weinstein at Royal Lodge www.bbc.com/news/article... British newspapers are relentless and will keep digging.This type of story validates what survivors say and shows how corrupt DoJ are for not releasing files and exposing the pedophiles

It’s time for Prince Andrew to come and explain his use of Royal Lodge at taxpayers’ expense. I hope MPs from across the House join my campaign.

Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation. But I'm drawing hope from the past week that we frogs may be a bit more aware of our situation than those allegorical frogs. #Hop

When the regime is toppled, the 18th of October should be made into a national holiday: No Kings Day. And the official mascot? A frog, of course 🐸🐸 #NoKings #FrogsTogetherStrong #Amphifa

Frogs for freedom. #NoKings

Well done Dubliners!

The world joined us and said, “No Kings.”

But seriously, what is wrong with this demented animal? (In the full video, he bombs No Kings protesters with diarrhea from a jet with KING TRUMP on the side of it.)

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos." factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com....

#FarageBoats “I would gently point out to Nigel Farage and others that before we left the EU, we had a returns agreement with every country in the EU and he told the country it would make no difference if we left. He was wrong about that,” www.theguardian.com/law/2025/oct...

The last thing #Farage wants is a stop to the small boats. They are his passport to wealth on his gravy train of hate and divisiveness. He caused this problem by pulling us out of the Dublin agreement with his #Brexit They are #FarageBoats #FarageBoats #FarageBoats #FarageBoats #FarageBoats

Go Ed! #FarageBoats

The Brexit effect is clear and obvious The Farage boats Or Brexit boats Both seem appropriate

This is what Farage's Brexit did to the figures for migrants arriving in small boats. Before Brexit there was a negligible amount. Farage told us it would be controlled by Brexit. Farage, the root cause of all this, is apparently the most popular political leader in the UK right now???

“I would gently point out to Nigel Farage that before we left the EU we had a returns agreement with every country in the EU. He told the country it would make no difference if we left. He was wrong about that. These are Farage boats in many senses coming across the channel” 👏 PM Keir Starmer

Starmer: “Controlling migration is a reasonable goal- but if you throw bricks and smash up private property that is thuggery…if you incite violence that’s criminal…if you graffiti on a Chinese takeaway telling them to go home, that’s not pride that’s racism.”

Starmer firing shots at Nigel Farage in his Labour conference speech.

A pattern is developing where everyone who fights back against a Trump attack inevitably wins with their reputation much better than before, and everyone who caves to him looks like shit and has Trump coming back for more a month later.

For some perspective on this whole ass autism shit. Autism was first included in the DSM-III in 1980 and has been updated in every DSM since. Acetaminophen or Paracetamol has been commercially produced since fucking 1878!!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracet...

One of the biggest topics of discussion at #LDConf has been the threat from Reform and how we fight back. The depressing spectacle of the Conservatives' capitulation to the populist right, and Labour's equivocation, means it falls to the Lib Dems to lead the charge against Farage. And we will! 💪🏻🔶

The libdems have to have a conference for Ed Davey to appear several items down the BBC news items. Farage just has to open his mouth and he appears at item number two on evening broadcast.

🎺🎺We are proud to announce that the new @greenparty.org.uk leader, @zackpolanski.bsky.social will be joining our protest against Donald Trump on September 17😎😎

This is excellent and long overdue

Nigel Farage is the biggest charlatan in British political history. And here's what his constitutents in Clacton really think:

On the same day in the Telegraph:

Angela Raynor resigns. @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Now do Farage, who has bought his house in Clacton under his girlfriends name, and used a private company to avoid tax on his gbnews wages. Do your job bbc! www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0...

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell. Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass. That, right there, is the problem.

A courteous but very impressive rebuke to Nigel Farage from the Bishop of Oxford. "I heard no compassion in what you said...". "I disagree profoundly with your attempts to ... increase fear of the stranger in our communities". Do read. blogs.oxford.anglican.org/an-open-lett...

I guess someone else is feeling the gravitational pull of the coalescing new left party.

Nigel Farage pretending to be patriotic while pledging to rip up Britain's proud record of leading the world on human rights.

Maria Kirch was an astronomer, and the first woman to discover a comet. Even though her husband took the credit. #GirlPower

Watch @EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk call out the BBC for their failure to hold Nigel Farage to account.

Well done both supervisors and student - the examiners were certainly happy! And a great chance to catch up with @drzoewaller.bsky.social and Gary Parkinson.
