Nice weather for Tufted ducks at The Quarry #Cullercoats #whitleybay

BBC Panorama has a very questionable record as does BBC generally re Strictly for one recently. BBC seem to be going wild on investigative journalism lately. Never the less allegations are shocking and need immediate further investigation #bbcpm

"Two in three Britons (66%) think Starmer should not lead Labour into the next General Election but are divided on when he should go" The latest Ipsos Political Pulse, conducted between 8-12 May 2026 among 2,191 British adults in conjunction with ITV/Peston www.ipsos.com/en-uk/two-th... #R4Today

Thank you! I completely agree. I live in Manchester and voted Green last week. However, I wholeheartedly want Burnham to win for the benefit of our country. The consequences of him not doing are too dire to risk. Your response and outlook is extremely refreshing 🤗

I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter the dire threat of a Reform UK government elected on a minority of the vote

Spring leaves and a swan showing off

A surgeon is treated with massive respect by Nick Robinson. A bit tougher scrutiny needed particularly of alleged coup plotters in a factional labour fight #r4today

If Wes Streeting has got pps's to resign for him then he's not someone we want anywhere near PM job #r4today #c4news

Seems like the MPs are waiting for an emporers new clothes type speech later. #r4today

But what are the political tides on voting day in the UK #localelections #whiteybay #cullercoats #Tynemouth

📣Election Day! Polling stations are open! Your chance to vote for amazing Green councillors who have just 2 vested interests - your local community and your environment. Make hope normal again & Vote Green💚 (& remember to take photo ID to the polling station!)

I definitely don’t believe the government regulates the use of glyphosate. They can’t even get a grip on water companies dumping shit in our rivers #bbcr4today #r4today

News that the BBC won't report. Palestine Coalition letter to Met chief Mark Rowley regarding his remarks that they plan to march past synagogues. #wato

There is and can be no justification for stabbing/shooting/harming those who are simply going about their business. Disagree with others, argue with them, bring facts and data galore along and talk until you are exhausted. Then you find 'the other' is just like you #r4today

Lets be clear. This is about stealing an election, this time, with SCOTUS on their side. House Speaker says, “you’ve got to keep the grown ups in charge.” GOP doesnt care what the voters want. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Dear BBC, All you need to do is supply a few verified examples of times you used another party's banner while "explaining" their policies. Another complaint, yesterday. #R4Today

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact. How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

Well, quite. Until all this 5th largest economy stuff actually trickles down to the populace, it's pretty meaningless.

And yet... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We've overpaid you (weekend students, family carers...) and we're not going to consider whether there's any chance you can afford it; we just want the money back. Now. They've finally given way on the carers, but generally they don't seem to care how bad they look. #BBCPM

The BBC says the asylum system is being “systematically exploited” But the detail in the same article tells a much smaller story And the gap between the two is concerning during a live election campaign Stephen McNair puts the story under the microscope. eastangliabylines.co.uk/immigration/...

To understand why the USA is where it is today, all you need to do is see that Trump cannot tolerate even the mildest, insightful criticism from the Pope, but Trump will allow Putin to humiliate him deeply and constantly, while still craving Putin’s approval.

If you ask me, Sen. Jon Ossoff is sounding more and more like a potential 2028 presidential candidate.

Nick and Justin on full on "use fossil fuels" 'quality' interviewer journalism. Not even both siding the discussion today. Noisy repetitive interviewing. When he hadnt thought of new questions Nick just sounded more angry. How about using fossil fuels = Climate Change. Heard of that? #r4today

Danish Scurvy Grass looking good #WhitleyBay

Puzzled by litter but pleased to see Fulmers on the cliffs today #Whitleybay
