Robbie Gibb should have been ruled out of the running for the BBC Board in 2021: it was clear he'd been closely involved in setting up GB News - an ideological project aiming to rival to the BBC, & therefore a clear conflict of interest. The fact he was still allowed to join always rang alarm bells.

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.

Fun fact: Today is the 1 year anniversary of Farage's foreign national girlfriend Ferrari buying his house. With unexplained wealth. That should be investigated...

The Kremlin trolls are slipping up. In their haste to defend Farage and Trump they are revealing their support for Russia, like the one writing "Ukraine will perish". Be absolutely clear, Russia is deeply involved in the present attack on the BBC and British democracy. @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Millions of us are still struggling to access affordable NHS dental care. I’ve signed 38 Degrees’ petition demanding Keir Starmer properly funds NHS dentistry now, will you join me? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/fu...

The Telegraph's "attacks on the BBC are not remotely done in good faith & are the result of the publisher’s ideological & commercial interests. There is no world in which The Telegraph’s output would survive the level of scrutiny applied to the BBC’s journalism.” open.substack.com/pub/writesbr...

Every poll, survey, opinion piece, research and documentary confirms the disaster that is Brexit. Immeasurable damage, economically, socially, scientifically, security, politically. It is utter madness not to start reversing Brexit. @labourlewis.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=6l0G...

Ofcom should force GB News to drop the word News and re- brand as GB RW Propaganda Show. That way those thick shits that watch it will then know what they are watching.

There is a deep irony in the Head Of Racism at @lbc.co.uk @nickferrarilbc.bsky.social complaining about bias at the BBC. The fat lump hasn’t encountered an immigrant, asylum seeker or brown person he didn’t immediately label as a criminal or rapist.

The platforming of Farage for years before he became an MP was disgraceful. Question Time is the second most blatantly biased propaganda show after the laughingly ‘flagship’ Laura Kuenssberg airtime filler.

👇EXACTLY 👇

Seriously? He has no idea how insurance works or how to govern. I’ll never get over 77 million people thinking a man this incompetent belongs anywhere near the Oval Office.

It’s as if they think we’ve all been in a coma for the last 15 years, rather than watching the Tories smash it all up in front of us. Very good on our ‘let’s-not-bother-with-right-wing-racism-or-Farage’s-corruption-and-let’s-blame-Labour-for-everything’ media. www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/the-great-...

One man does not speak for the millions who fought in the war any more than he speaks for history. The deliberate weaponisation of an elderly veteran by a bunch of right-wing chancers only demonstrates - once again - that remembrance has been hijacked and weaponised by morons. I wish it wasn't so

Yep. And to think that so many people think this man is some sort of hero is such a sign of our twisted times.

Tory policy: Let's spend 14 years asset stripping the country for our own ends & when we're finally voted out & things begin crumbling around us, we can blame the current government. Slow hand clap Chris Philp, you hypocritical prick.

Saying 'we have a plan' means nothing if you won’t show the policy. Badenoch's whole idea is basically magic: slash taxes and services, and somehow expect the economy to boom. We’ve heard this song before - spoiler: it always wrecks public services and screws over the people who need them most.

Excessive force. PERIOD! They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor. 📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

Reform UK Council Grifter in Northumberland. Councillor Shaun Knowles turned up to a meeting yesterday for the first time in just under 6 months. This means he avoids disqualification by just a few days and keeps his councillor salary.

Hi, I’m God. Jesus and I agree that starving the poor so you can build yourself golden bathrooms and golden ballrooms is evil. Anyone who does that shall burn for eternity. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Thanks, God

“His main theme was that the country was fucked. Largely because of Brexit. Weirdly, he has no memory of being the main architect behind the Brexit vote. He seems to think it happened in a world in which he played no part.” Farage - the foghorn of failure. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

She should have added that when the Tory’s were in government they didn’t think that this brave railway worker deserved a pay rise and that the rail unions were extremists for being concerned that driver only trains put staff and customers at risk.

YOUNG PEOPLE. LISTEN UP. Today Nigel Farage said the government should cut the minimum wage for young people ...to “raise aspiration” and “boost business" It's £10ph FFS! Lower your pay so you’ll dream bigger DO YOU SEE IT NOW? Spread far & wide. bylinetimes.com/2025/11/03/n...

Nigel Farage, whose party recently put a teenager with zero work experience of any kind, in charge of running an entire county, is currently giving a speech railing against "unqualified" politicians being put in charge of Government departments

“Frankfurt, Madrid, Milan and Paris are all doing better than they were. It has been at London’s expense. There is no question about that.” ~AA www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Finland knows that Socialism works. They house all the homeless people, and have the least in the world. They closed all paid Education in 1976 and now have the best education system in the world. They are the happiest country in the world. Be like Finland.

I am old enough to remember when Nick Robinson berated an RMT spokesperson, as they were taking industrial action against the former Government wanting to introduce driver only trains. I doubt he reflects on the stance he took then. #R4Today

Will the RW media remember the driver and conductor of the Huntingdon attack, and how many lives they saved, the next time train companies try to eliminate staff and they strike, citing passenger safety?

Reform UK will forever be tainted by Nathan Gill their Welsh Leader, and the attempt by so many of the party’s leadership to cover up knowing him. Nigel Farage, Richard Tice, Dr David Bull all knew him well and stood by him in the European Parliament as he made speeches for cash.

RefUKuenssberg gave, yet again, a platform to an unelected millionaire, Mo, representing a party with just 5 MPs, to talk shit about things he hasn’t got a clue about. #ukpolitics

It’s pitiful. Reform’s idea of a ‘better deal’ is a ‘no deal’ Brexit and flouncing out of the ECHR too. Trying to claim that *this* Brexit is a bad one because they rushed at it is genuinely laughable. #shitshow

Morning America! Here in stuffy old-fashioned blighty, we've unceremoniously kicked out an actual royal prince who hasn't (yet) been convicted of anything. Could you maybe do the same with your Epstein pal, self-confessed molester, and convicted felon of a President? share.google/jV4xA3tD7TaQ...

Here we have it, Rachel Reeves Estate agent has made a statement apologising for their error. The licence was supposed to be being applied for by them but due to circumstances including the sudden resignation of the property manager it never happened. Rachel Reeves is innocent.

My message to the American Republican voters. Please take a long hard look and listen to Trump, and if you think like the rest of the world that he’s just fvcking stupid. He is no where near as stupid as you for voting for him.

Adolph Hitler's lavish ballroom, which was paid for by wealthy industrialists currying favor, was torn down after the horrors of WWII. Trump's Epstein Ballroom will likely suffer the same fate.

In the past year Labour has signed trade deals with the USA, India and the EU, secured £200bn investment in the UK, contracted £10bn frigates to Norway and £5bn to Denmark. Today, an £8bn deal for fighters with Turkey. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Good to have a competent government in charge.

A self confessed murderer thinks he’s a serious contender for a Nobel peace prize.

So Reform UK Ltd don’t like ANYONE who is not white. It’s not just about immigration or asylum seekers. But we always knew didn’t we?

It speaks volumes about the dire state of British politics that an MP can say that she gets mad about seeing Black and Asian people in adverts on TV and she hasn't immediately been expelled from her party - a party that hopes to form the next Govt.

Off the top of my head, there have been four egregious examples of weapons grade public racism in the last couple of weeks - Jenrick; the Express hack; Captain Concrete & the Reform woman. The way they are treated by employers, punters & wider media, will directly influence how much more we see.

In the last 30 years. University has become unaffordable. Homes have become unaffordable. Healthcare has become unaffordable/non existent. Heating has become unaffordable. All the jobs are Minimum Wage. The screws are only turned on you so billionaires can become trillionaires

I guess Farage has now got 2 choices: 1) That’s not a racist comment. 2) Get out of my Party. Which means he either admits he’s running a racist party or he loses another MP.
