The absolute state of the BBC news just now - which seems determined to drag the government down over the budget. Where was all this attention to minute detail and concern for absolute accuracy when the Tories were lying their way through their chaotic reign for 14 years? It's frankly absurd.

Logic and guesswork triumphed (😉) in the end... Cardle 5/5 Streak 4🔥 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🟢 🔴 🟢 🟢 🔴 🟢 🟢 🟢 🟢 www.playcardle.com

And Michael Gove and Daniel Hannan said we would not leave the Single Market and Customs Union. Lies.

Why are Tories not being hauled over the coals about this. They said 350m could be saved and given to NHS. They didn't say how much the country would lose from lost trade, lost investment, lost EU grants, EU funding, lost knowledge (eg on sharing crime data) Yet Labour getting trolled at budget.

The Gibb machine in overdrive mode.

Mason declares that in his judgement we have been misled by Rachel Reeves. It feels unprecedented that the BBC has made a "call" on a story, and is something that was absent throughout the terms of notorious liars such as Johnson. There were certainly no "calls" about Brexit lies. #r4today

Our media has become the story. What they decide is newsworthy, what they scream about, who they accuse, who they excuse, who they blame… They have an agenda entirely of their own. Not one rooted in public interest or national responsibility. But one that is deeply rightwing and undemocratic.

Our economic woes are caused by Brexit, (Ukraine), Covid, Brexit’s ugly baby - our dismal immigration policy, Truss budget, 14yrs of austerity… All rightwing policies. Quite mad that our media acts as if Labour’s budget is the end of days, when they failed to adequately scrutinise any of that👆shit.

I also managed to bag this fistful of car brochures for a tenner... 👍

Popped over to Bolton Wanderers for a 'toy and model collector's fair' and, suffice to say, landed a couple of touches. Pics were respectively £8, £18, and £10... (1/2)

Totally. (h/t @bear-xiong.bsky.social) I often wonder about the cost of my shoulder surgery a couple of years ago - thank god for the NHS...

The tide is turning. Even the Telegraph is now admitting the damage the Brexit deal has done to the economy.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Been an absolutely corking day leading three tours around @chethamslibrary.bsky.social, meeting folk from Brazil, Canada, Czechia, Georgia, Germany, Italy, Mexico, USA, and even Bury too! I do like this place...

Why does Gary Lineker get fired for something he said on Social Media. But Amol Rajan just has to 'apologise' for something he said on air?

It never ceases to amaze how those who profess to be big Christians tend to be anything but...

BREAKING NEWS... THIS is all you need to know about the current condition of the UNITED STATES economy. You DON'T want to know...

The irony is rich.

*Kemi reading the bible* "suffer little children" well that's enough for today, think I got the gist of it

I'm not saying the leader of the Conservative party's approach to politics is infantile, but she's just defended her latest attack on the Chancellor by saying "she started it"

It takes a special kind of right-wing British political party to literally sell black shirts. Are you going to tell them? Or shall I?

Security is built through cooperation, not isolation.

Another Brexity hypocrite... 🙄

Shabana Mahmood said this month that her migration policies are a "moral mission". Where is the morality in blocking an eight-year-old girl made destitute by a Hurricane from coming to the UK to join her parents? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Can someone show the White House Press Corpse a montage of the reporters who covered previous administrations, the ones who weren't complete cowards?

The White House press corps is a spineless disgrace - why did nobody speak out against Trump's attack on the reporter? (h/t @dannyblanchy.bsky.social) The only stupid person in that room is Trump. The US msm should hang him out to dry - there's surely plenty to go at... 🤷🏼‍♂️

Please do notice where this former Brexit Party and UKIP MEP resides these days... in a Château in France. They love Brexit Britain so much that they are living abroad!

🇺🇸"The BBC removed part of Rutger Bregman's Reith lecture, where he alleged Donald Trump was the most openly corrupt president in US history" 🔇"If the national broadcaster can't air defensible claims, what hope is there for any of our free press to effectively challenge power?"

BBC staff have now been banned from repeating the description of Donald Trump excised from Rutger’s Reith lecture. Makes his warning here all the more chilling. youtu.be/9UlYdocG5Bs

He is risen

Surely they can get a The Producers to do the voiceover.

One commentator has noted that the latest fall is as a result of policies put in place by the previous Tory administration. And, to be fair, the Tories did work tirelessly to make the UK an unwelcoming, impoverished, insufferable shithole... 🤷🏼‍♂️
