Keep up the pressure on the BBC. There are more who urgently need to go - including Robbie Gibb! "Union demands Sir Robbie Gibb's removal from BBC board to defend 'political impartiality'" news.sky.com/story/union-...

The surprising truth about Reform voters – podcast

At least the UK has punished the Andrew formerly known as Prince, and Peter Mandelson for their Epstein links When will the US punish Trump, Bannon and Thiel?

The beginning of some positive things coming through from EU. As I mentioned yesterday. It’s my view we will see more of this in the coming months.

Pressure on Robbie Gibb to stand down increasing. Well-deserved union.bectu.org.uk/resource/let...

Fascinating stats here Research from @hopenothate.org.uk based on poll of 11,000 Reform UK supporters, the biggest survey of its kind, tells us more about who is intending to vote for the party than has been previously known. It reveals five distinct voter groups with sharply contrasting priorities

How Brexit impact on business investment left the UK lagging behind Europe. Britain may have missed out on more than $520 billion in investment since 2016 referendum. www.thenationalnews.com/business/eco...

Yesterday in Parliament I said that the government should leave X.

The more you look into the Prescott memo, the worse it gets

Farage is a ‘snake oil salesman’ he trades in racism n division - he sold Brexit to the gullible n the millionaire tax avoiders - and he’s doing the same now

The problem after 14 years of damage wreaked by the Tories is that we now have a f***ed up BBC and a f***ed up NHS. But, remember, the f***ing up has come from outside. It is not intrinsic We desperately need a properly functioning BBC and properly functioning NHS DEFEND THEM!

The idea that a country with anemic growth could voluntarily take this sort of economic hit without severe consequences was outrageous. The lying scum who promoted Brexit purely for their own selfish benefit, have done terrible harm to our country.

Polling shows that these voters are also deeply concerned about financial insecurity and economic inequality. For some #RefUK voters, the cost of living is twice as important as immigration.

Yet another reason why Reform UK would be torn apart really quickly in office... Not only would they lose loads of MPs amid the inevitable scandals and resignations, but their voter base is shallow with nothing in common. Can we not just avoid the whole debacle? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The letter the BBC could send back to Trump - brilliant stuff from @davidallengreen.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/emptycit...

Reform UK Ltd gets 92% of its funding from climate change deniers and fossil fuel corporate interests, provoking negative reactions.

I cannot fathom how any one person would prefer Farage and his incompetents over Starmer and his very competent government. They have met, or are on course to meet, 58 of their Manifesto commitments. And they’re only 16 months into their term.

That final point is absolutely crucial.

Yes it's a really important detail this.

At Byline Times we’ve published dozens of articles on Sir Robbie Gibb’s role at GB News, the Jewish Chronicle, and of course BBC News for nearly five years Tomorrow’s headlines today bylinetimes.com?s=Sir+Robbie...

"Robbie Gibb should have no role in appointing the next Director General, and given the Royal Charter gives the government the power to remove him will the Prime Minister sack him now?" asks Ed Davey. Starmer says he won't interfere in running the BBC

It takes an obscene amount of hubris to lecture the BBC when you have The Telegraph’s record on truth-telling. Some of the paper’s errors this year are so bad they’re almost laughable 👇🏻

Ed Davey calls for Robbie Gibb to be removed from the BBC board. The problem with Gibb is not that he is right-wing. The problem is that he is a fanatic who instead of trying to put his political prejudices aside, works to impose them on the BBC. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

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...

Excellent 12-part Byline Times thread bringing together and linking to evidence of collusion between conflict-of-interests BBC hierarchy and external forces aligned with Trump. Many names and organisations implicated in plotting to undermine, perhaps bring down the BBC - maybe even a takeover plot?

👉Bottom line: partisan sources + lobbying conflicts + a choreographed leak = a weaponised attack on public-service journalism. Read both parts: bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/b... • bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/p... 12/12

🚨UPDATE WITH COMMENT FROM THE BBC: Byline Times can confirm that of the four-person BBC panel that interviewed Prescott and made the decision to appoint him as an advisor, three of them had longstanding Conservative Party ties. bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/b...

This kind of (seemingly) reverse corruption needs a look 1. Reform MPs praise JCB endlessly, councillors promote the firm's tech on their authorities. 2. Then the boss gives a £200,000 party donation. To a cynical eye, it looks like an affiliate rewards scheme leftfootforward.org/2025/11/bill...

Lots of stuff here that you won't read in most of the legacy media which seems completely uninterested in the backgrounds, associations and possible motivations of those behind the BBC crisis. Why was the BBC having its homework marked by a lobbyist who hasn't worked as a journalist for 20 years?

🧵On our revelations today about the BBC Coup and the Prescott Dossier. The leaked ‘BBC Bias’ memo Trump used to attack the BBC was authored by Michael Prescott — a Hanover lobbyist paid by US tech/media giants tied to Trump. Full story: bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/b... 1/12

www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n... Good! I want Robbie Gibb to go too. This move rightwards is very disturbing.

“A sustained campaign of anti-migrant rhetoric is fuelling a growing cesspool of racism, including against international and ethnic minority nursing staff, without whom our health and care system would simply cease to function.” How disgraceful. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

The report has calculated that the Home Office’s three accommodation providers made a combined profit of £380m between September 2019 and August 2024. That equates to £146 a minute over five years Rats, overcrowding and malnutrition common. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Well, this is quite a serious allegation. I do hope the BBC shows true impartiality and investigate whether or not some of its Board members are systemically biased. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

This by Lewis Goodall on the internal ugliness at the BBC is very well worth reading: open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

I’ve written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage urging them to condemn Donald Trump’s attack on the BBC. The BBC belongs to Britain, not Trump. We must defend it together.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten. "I don't think that we should allow ourselves to be bullied into thinking that the BBC is only any good, if it reflects the prejudice of the last person who shouted at it." ~AA

"They are so convinced their politics isn’t really politics, but just some default setting shared with much of the country..." True of so many commentators on the Right.

The reaction to the Panorama edit has been nothing short of hysterical. Yes the BBC has some impartiality problems. But its biggest isn't the one you think. New piece from me. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

Let’s be clear – Trump and his friends are not brave crusaders fighting for journalistic integrity and factual reporting. They are seizing on a single mistake by one BBC programme as an excuse to undermine the whole organisation. We simply cannot let that happen. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

3/ It would be interesting to know exactly what role BBC Board member Robbie Gibb played in this affair. Whoever leaked Michael Prescott's inflammatory & ideologically loaded memo must have known what damage it would do to the BBC. Cui bono?

Donald Trump is not going to sue the BBC for $1 billion The real story today is both Reform/Farage and the Conservatives/Badenoch talking today about radically changing the BBC This is the real agenda

I've always felt that Johnson and Farage put self-interest over the national interest - hence their dallying with Putin and his oligarchs. But directly colluding with a foreign government to take down the BBC feels like an act of supreme treachery

This is well worth a listen. Farage & Gill are one. No wonder Nigel is rattled and calling press conferences at a rapid rate to change the subject. (If you're short of time skip it to 14:30 & listen for 2 mins.)

“A process of intimidation that the BBC’s supporters have long feared has been playing out behind closed doors is now unfolding in plain sight” - @theobserveruk.bsky.social on the “political interference” that led to the departure of two most senior figures at the BBC observer.co.uk/opinion-and-...

The verdict marks the culmination of a ten-year case that started in a fierce political battle within the Parliament in the run-up to Brexit. It's time we had sight of the Russia Report 👀 www.euractiv.com/news/belgian...

The CURRENT sitting MP for Clacton earns £511,000 as a presenter for GB News and took £281,000 as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion. So maybe sit this one out, you rancid herring.

Not forgetting that gagging clauses were written into contracts for charities working with the prison service preventing them from criticising any problems. ~AA www.irishlegal.com/articles/doz...
