Just watched Farage doing his ordinary chap just proud of his country schtick for his Party Political Broadcast. Serious question - was it directed by Chris Mason?

Wonder how Reform get away with their nastiest excesses? ITV local News has just reported that Labour and the Lib Dems have complained about some tweets posted by a Redcar candidate - whilst failing to mention what they were or even alluding to the content. Free ride.

Just heard Chris Mason's intro to Starmer's visit to China onR4 #WATO . Talking about him as if doing a voiceover to a true crime murder documentary describing the villain. Loathesome.

So in the middle of an international crisis Badenoch is briefing against her own country. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

#R4Today Chris Mason. "Kemi Badenoch masterstroke"

"US Vice President JD Vance says newly released footage shows the ICE agent was actig in self defence". This apparently is #BBCR4 impartiality and investigation of evidence. Gut churning.

The key question for Maduro right now is "how much will I have to give to Trump for my pardon?"

In this time of barbarians it makes turning to enlightenment and the best of human thought all the more important.

'The USA Seizes Control of the Worlds Largest Oil Reserves - 300 billion barrels'

Mamdani revoked all of Mayor Adams previous executive orders. This is how it's reported in the most 'progressive' national newspaper o the UK.... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Just a reminder to @news.sky.com and the rest of the British media. Starting every news report with 'President Trump says' is by definition not impartial reporting.

20% of ALL reported crime is assault on women and girls. 20%. This is just evil ignorant shit...

On R4Today Tice claimed that those reporting Farage's antisemitism at school are all liars and politically motivated. And this doesn't cause even a ripple in the media?

Heard about this latest atrocity on the World Service. Can't see it anywhere in the UK press this morning. Time for @mrjamesob.bsky.social to shine the only light on what's still happening? www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/11...

According to @bethrigby.bsky.social Farage's multi-witnessed and documented anti-semitism, islamaphobia and admiration for Hitler is just 'some remarks from many decades ago...that are disputed'. What the hell's going on with the UK press?

Alnmouth, Northumberland. Always amazing light, and always different.

At least he's single handedly revived the US wood carving and gilding tradition.

Having previously described Rachel Reeves as a 'woman problem', this morning Kemi Badenoch referred to the Chancellor as 'that woman'. Just remember this casual misogyny next time she's moaning and all hurty.

The best and most important image in all English art.

OK @mrjamesob.bsky.social see if you can find anything to top this one...

It's not just replicating it - I guarantee that Reform and Tory supporters see this only as an 'illegal' resisting the police and can't wait to see it here.

Waiting Starmers speech watching BBC Politics Live. The only discussion and interview question obsessively repeated and repeated is "do you agree are they/is he racist".

OK. When are the press going to stop sane-washing Trump? Guarantee they will selectively quote his unhinged UN rant. On the back of his flat-earth drugs policies yesterday. When is the point when they just show and tell in full - as it is.

Remember when the UK media uncovered potential wrongdoing and lies regarding the purchase of a house in Clacton by Nigel Farage? No, they don't either.

Dear #BBC. You don't label evidence or the truth 'left wing' just because someone on the right tells you it is.

Why am I seeing interviews in UK media with 'left wing' students? It's not left v right. It's the factionalism of the right that schooled a kid in gun culture twisted with so-called 'christian' certainty, a world of neo-nazis, factionalism, and unhinged infighting between right wing influencers.

What really annoys me about the self righteous left is that they despise and decry the Press for lies and propaganda - but are happy to jump on the same bandwagon if the lies and twisting are aimed at the Labour Party and individual MPs.

So the US Press thinks it acceptable to conduct an extensive interview with a 10 year old who's just survived a massl shooting. And the UK Press are happy the show the footage. How insanely fucked up has it all become.?

Sky News - 'Why are Reform leading the immigration discussion?". Sky News five minutes later - "Nigel Farage will be making a speech at 1030, we will be covering it live".

Let me get this straight. The morons complaining that asylum seekers are in 4 star hotels are objecting in court that they are no longer hotels but are now hostels and so are in breach of planning rules. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Watching Trump rant at great length about mail-in voting and then rambling into random attacks on the democrats- whist Zelensky has to sit there. He is insane. Ga-ga. Loopy. Round the bend. Doolally. And the world just carries on regardless.

Time to show all the archive footage of Roosevelt rolling out the red carpet for Hitler, calling him Adolf, and opining to the Press about what a great guy he was.

It's not true Putin made no concessions - he agreed to Trump's only objective - to tell the world the war would not have happened if Trump was President.

Just seen the stage for the Alaskan summit being hoovered on ITV news. It is just a sordid exhibition of insane pandering to two profoundly evil egomaniacs. Sordid is the only word I can muster.

The UK is now a country where the 'row' is not that a Tory MP is a xenophobe - it's that a theologian has the moral courage to call it out. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Look forward to details of age, gender and ethnicity of those in Surrey harrassing 'our' women. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Explain to me why this isn't called what it is - terrorism. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

As I read this Sky News is going batshit on Diane Abbot, like all the Press. Tomorrow they will ask yet again why Reform is doing so well in the polls...

Please explain to me why people who systematically terrorise, shoot, and beat people to death are called 'settlers' and not 'terrorists' by politicians and the Press.

#R4TWTW - After reporting record temperatures go straight to an intellectually bankrupt climate change denier to spout absolute drivel without any - any challenge. There is absolutely no justification to even platform such idiocy. None

The BBC #Radio4Today opened with the line that he had 'destroyed the Democratic Party establishment'. It jarred- so unnecessarily negative - his sweeping victory could have characterised any number of positive ways. Now I see...

It's what Jesus would have wanted.... www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Given Russia was apparently goaded into war, Zelinsky should shut up, and Trump is itching for a Trump Tower in Moscow, just exactly who does Hesgeth think we need to defend ourselves against? www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

The media are incapable of simply explaining the deal, assessing its likely impact, and reinforcing this with relevant expert experience. Their understanding of 'balance' is to simply amplify dissent.

Just a reminder - Christian teaching is that no one is a stranger.

Having discovered that the Brexit fix of punching themselves in the face didn't work, the same voters are now persuaded that kicking themselves in the face might work instead.

Just mid morning sky on an English river.

Proper old school journalism bringing the truth to light. #warcrimes news.sky.com/video/sky-in...

So the moment the US strong armed Ukraine into a mineral deal they announced they're ready to walk away from peace brokerage.

Here's what was being celebrated outside the High Court yesterday. Much more to come. The persecution of a minority to make hateful people somehow feel better. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
