Labour actually taking steps to combat the cherry-picking right wing media?? It's a Christmas miracle!

It's what social media once was and what it should be again!

"The football was on and he was a bit pissed" is quite possibly the worst response I've ever heard to an incident like this. It really does expose the level of laziness Reform is able to get away with when it comes to the press...

BECAUSE THERE WERE SEVERE LABOUR SHORTAGES, RUPERT. READ JUST ONE HISTORICAL PIECE OF TEXT ON THE SUBJECT FFS

The Left really deserves better...

"I'm voting for Your Party" "My party?" "No, Your Party" "What party?" "Your Party" "Your voting the party that I'm voting for?" "No I'm voting for Your Party" CLOWNS.

Sir Robbie Gibb's role in the BBC boardroom - to kill the BBC off. I’m often critical of the BBC about them platforming Reform and their constant reliance on what they believe is ‘balance’ BUT the politicising of the Board with people like Gibb needs to be addressed. Get him out.

Although as long as Robbie Gibb is still there it'll still be hopelessly biased toward the Right.

Alright now can the BBC hire a Director General who ISN'T a card carrying Tory?

Reform very unhappy with the coverage they got from Welsh media. The message is clear: the far-right can only succeed when they enjoy the fawning treatment that English media provide.

She rightly targeted billionaires but Billie Eillish donating millions to charities also places a spotlight on the international celebrities who talk a big game on fixing the world's problems but you know...don't do anything

The BBC thinks this worthy of its news homepage, but I’m still not seeing much about Reform’s financial relationship with Russia. If we had a serious media we might not collectively drunkenly stagger from one idiocy to the next.

This is why the left can't have nice things. For ONCE can we please have a political figure who endorses radical wealth redistribution but doesn't have the old "West=Bad let's cut Putin some slack" mental affliction?

BBC may as well have made the headline "Nigel Farage is right about everything"

Our media: Tony Blair met with Epstein 6 years before he was known to be a pedophile. Full coverage. Nathan Gill admits to 8 counts of treason last week. Silence.

Farage is rather obviously being protected by the media. It's going to take more than just Byline Times and Private Eye to really open it up. And it's pretty damn shaming to the craft of journalism.

The Left is ALWAYS doing this - misrepresenting themselves with a simplistic "catchy" title which makes it 10x easier for their opponents to attack them...

It's almost as if Reform UK are filled with ignorant fools who have been taken in by populist lies and shouldn't be anywhere near in charge of anything...

This is that cancel culture they so vehemently claim to reject.

Starmer seems to think he can point to a graph in 2028 that shows improvement and that'll win the election in 2029. Gordon Brown proved that approach does not work.

For 56 minutes Sky News and BBC News interrupted everything else and carried a Reform UK feed live, uninterrupted, unchallenged. The stream spluttered, froze, pixelated - dozens of times - still they stuck with it. FOR ONE HOUR. This is an editorial choice. No other party gets this coverage. ~AA

My head knows this is correct but my heart is not having any of it

I am planning to start a political project soon and as a result I'm gonna try to post on Bluesky more often. Here's a picture of my cat as a warm up:

Nothing will ever change in UK politics until the clear bias of the UK media is acknowledged and changed.

Tax the Rich! Tax the Rich! Ooops they are Taxing the Rich....

Very shocked and saddened to hear about Hefin David

Anyone else remember when Trans people just existed without being at the centre of a culture war waged by right-wingers to divide the Left? I miss that.

Can't believe I missed #Caturday

As imperfect as they were. Americans are going to wish the Democrats had won the election. They are going to wish they had chosen the boring, slightly imperfect administrators, adhering to the world order. All hell is now going to break loose. Britain Be careful what you wish for here.

Now that's the Labour I know and love!

Labour had a busy old week doing their jobs, working for the country. Not that you’d know it! Happy Sunday.

Proof that throwing money at something doesn't always make it better.

Instead of practicing DEI, employers should adopt the Trump hiring policy - appoint people who have done personal favours for you regardless of how woefully unqualified they are.

Truth over neutrality should be enshrined in law if we are ever going to fix democracy. End the nonsense practice of presenting "both sides of the debate" when one side of the debate is just false. News outlets reporting misinformation should be heavily fined.

“The Democrats didn’t do enough on Gaza, so I withheld my vote to make a statement.” “Well, Trump won and now he’s gonna destroy Gaza.” “Yep. We’re paying the price for the Democrats’ incompetence.” “‘We?’ The Gazans are paying the price, not us” Pause. “I needed to make a statement.”

It feels strange living in an era you know is going to be in A-Level History module in 20 years time...

Can't believe turning a popular mainstream website into a platform for Nazis and white Supremacists had financial ramifications...

"Reeves also enthused about one specific proposal, saying it was “great”, made by the EU’s new trade chief responsible for post-Brexit negotiations, Maroš Šefčovič , who floated the idea of the UK joining the Pan-Euro Mediterranean convention (PEM)." GOOD www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Yeah he’s going to interfere in an ongoing court case, pardon her and act like a dictator. Christ these people. If you knew ANYTHING you would know Labour’s prisons minister is formulating a policy to keep many women out if prison.

RIP David Lynch 😢

Pretty sure it's not up to women to "think carefully" about taking a higher-paid job than their partner. It's up to their partner to get the fuck over himself and be pleased for her.

I'd rather they stop doing this, but if they don't the centre and left should occupy that space. The attacks on Farage, Badenoch and Musk should be framed in patriotic rather than simply moral language.

I've been saying it for years - Conservatives have always just wanted the UK to be the 51st state of America. Their "patriotism" has always been nothing but posturing.

The tragic irony of Brexiteers scrambling to pledge their allegiance to an unelected foreign bureaucrat who is doggedly attempting to undermine the elected UK government...

The Prime minister hits back at Elon Musk ‘Those that are spreading lies and misinformation…are not interested in victims’

Blwyddyn Newydd Dda! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🥳🥂🎉

Debate about press' influence over public opinion here - that's besides the point though. Bias in the press undermines its very function by promoting misinformation, selective research and disproportionate levels of scrutiny. Press should be free of private and public influence, like NGOs.

Partisan media has infected UK democracy for far too long. MPs desperately need to pluck up some courage and address it.
