The real BBC bias story, narrated by Anna Ford

So... these latest poll figures in Telegraph... here's the predicted seats: Conservatives 17 Labour 25 Greens 55 Lib Dems 73 Reform 386 What on earth will it take to make Starmer's government see proportional representation as an urgent priority...

Very powerful. 👏🏻👏🏻 www.bond.org.uk/news/2025/10...

A powerful summary. One of the most horrific examples of the consequences of the war on drugs. Of course that's not the only factor, but what we currently have is prohibition era America writ large across the world - with these kind of results.

Strong editorial from the Lancet. The Government needs to listen: “The dysfunctionalities of the pharma model will not be solved by ramping up drug prices”   www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Israel is committing war crimes daily. It’s illegal, apartheid occupation continues. But because 20 rather than 100 people a day are being murdered, the EU stops pretending that it *might* do something. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

The Spectator (owned by GBNews owner Paul Marshall - estimated wealth of £800 million) doesn’t like taxing wealth fairly. I wonder how they got to this editorial decision? Let’s tax wealth fairly, fund front line services & make hope normal again. join.greenparty.org.uk

Politics isn't working. It's time to call time on the broken culture in Westminster and have a fresh start with a fair voting system. Add your name to @electoralreform.bsky.social‬'s call to #MakeSeatsMatchVotes action.electoral-reform.org.uk/page/3782/pe...

Greta Thunberg, deported to Greece, says the targeting of the Sumud Flotilla is "not the story" @teenvogue.com — instead, she says: "Israel once again violated international humanitarian law by preventing aid from getting into Gaza while people are being starved.”

Congratulations to Dame Sarah Mullally DBE on becoming the first woman to serve as Archbishop of Canterbury. A truly historic moment that shows the importance of women’s leadership in every walk of life. Wishing her well in this new role.

I am horrified by the news of multiple stabbings at a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur. My thoughts are with the loved ones of the victims of this heinous antisemitic attack. We must defend a society where people of all faiths can practice their religion in safety and peace

Me on Sky News Breakfast: "Russia was banned (from Eurovision) after the invasion of Ukraine and I think that if we have one rule for Ukrainians and another rule for Palestinians it starts to look like we only care about white-skinned people and not brown-skinned people" news.sky.com/video/musici...

@labour4pr.bsky.social is one of the best campaigns I've ever known - truly brilliant. I just hope @andyburnham.bsky.social means next parliamentary year, and not after the next election. It would be dangerously irresponsible of us to risk another one with FPTP

I've no words...

Brave and inspiring... this is a great piece from @labourlewis.bsky.social 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ok. They’ve pissed me off. I’m back to tell you 3 things about ID cards: 1. Migrants ALREADY HAVE biometric ID cards & govts have been trying to digitise them for years w repeated fuckups & failures causing complete chaos - they don’t work, you do not want that system for you.

There has never been better conditions for a force to Labour's left. There has never been a bigger threat from fascism in Britain. If 'Your Party' implodes, that will be tragic - and unforgivable. New column 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Indeed... - and apparently not illegal to publicly project images of Elon Musk inciting people to fight or die... but illegal to express support for Palestine Action or publicise a politician's relationship with a sex offender.

We need to build solidarity across borders - between all those the global elite and far right work to divide. This idea - Global Public Investment (GPI) - is an important part of it I think... youtu.be/BP0iFv_Ec7U?... @globpubinvnet.bsky.social

@australianlabor.bsky.social Its offical Israel is committing a genocide. Australia is a signatory to the Genocide Convention and has a moral and legal obligation to act, we cannot wait any longer. Statements of “concern” are not enough while children starve and families are massacred.

“We’re not talking to anybody, we’re not being interviewed, we’re simply sitting there with a sign,” Whitmore-Jones told NBC News. Four words written on the sign triggered Whitmore-Jones' arrest: I support Palestine Action. www.nbcnews.com/world/united...

There is nowhere safe to go in Gaza. Israeli forces have ordered thousands of Palestinians in Gaza City to evacuate as the military prepares another major assault. States should act to prevent genocide in Gaza and press Israel to reverse course.

Brilliant... from @johnmcdonnellmp.bsky.social

In a nutshell. And the biggest issue isn't the money, but the power that goes with it. People like me have maybe talked too much about poverty and not enough about wealth.

"No one... should face violent threats or intimidation. Everyone should be able to protest and engage in non-violent disruption without being lumped in with Islamic State, al-Qaida or the IRA. Legislation to uphold our civil rights... should be cause-blind." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Let's all report #KeirStarmer and #YvetteCooper about Palestine Action...

This video truly captured the mood. The Guardian spoke to protesters and bystanders in Parliament Square, London, at the largest demonstration relating to Palestine Action since the group was proscribed as a terrorist organisation by the UK government. youtu.be/Mw3NYfVuF_M?...

But... collaborating with others doesn't mean having to lose your own identity... Surely that's the whole point of working together as distinct parties rather than merging.
