“Fearless journalism is what terrifies politicians, and it must not be cowed." The BBC must stand up to Trump's $1 billion lawsuit - or risk legitimising the president's false narrative of what really happened on January 6 www.thenewsagents.co.uk/article/if-t...

🚨🚨 " Surprise, surprise"; new @bylinetimes.bsky.social report by @nafeez.bsky.social reveals that BBC bias memo fuelling #trump's attack was authored by no else than... lobbyist Michael Prescott tied to #trump's pro-tech giants, #Oracle. bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/b...

Private companies operating care services in just three regions of England made £250m profits in 3 years, £87.7m of profits went to care providers owned by private equity controlled from tax havens. Profits mean money buys less. Higher taxes for less service. Say NO to privatisation.

🔴'BBC Bias’ Memo Was Authored by Lobbyist Tied to Pro-Trump Tech Giants The leaked memo that fuelled Trump’s attack on the BBC was written by a lobbyist at a firm paid by US tech giants tied to the President, reports @nafeez.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/b...

In part 2 of my @bylinetimes.bsky.social investigation, I reveal how the 'BBC bias' memo - written by a Trump-aligned lobbyist whose firm was paid up to a million by pro-Trump donor tech giants - was politically biased and reliant on pro-Trump partisan sources bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/p...

The BBC executive were infiltrated a while back by very shady characters with links to dodgy financial interests, the establishment press and the hard right Brexit wing of the Tory Party. Its a coup, alright. Always has been.

🧵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

🚨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...

Post Office Horizon IT contract extended for another year. PO to pay £41m to Fujitsu. Fujitsu was instrumental in persecution of innocent postmasters. £1.2bn compensation paid from public purse. More to follow. Fujitsu haven't paid a penny, no one has been charged. Why is Fujitsu being rewarded?

When Boris Johnson was Prime Minister one of his senior advisers confided to me that one of the only things in politics his boss actually cared about was “killing off the BBC”. Five years on, and it is a campaign that appears to be finally coming to fruition. bylinetimes.com/2025/11/10/t...

Ed Davey agrees with you 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is a genuinely intolerable reality…

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...

This is full of mildly astonishing revelations about right-wing influence at the BBC, but foremost among them is the fact that he was advised that writing for the New Statesman was effectively unacceptable but doing so for the Spectator was fine - indeed, advisable. I am flabbergasted.

Tesla engineer was concerned about known thermal runaway problems in the batteries, elon and his head of security concoted a mass shooter threat pretending to be him, leaked it to the press and got a bolo issued to tried to get him swatted, Elon then stiffed his head of security

Want to know why the prisons system seems to be suddenly falling apart? Well, it's not sudden. It's just suddenly being REPORTED. This rot was a deliberate policy choice, and I kept the receipts. Because I'm not the BBC. (A note on what Tories did to cause this, from The Decade In Tory)

The famously left-wing bias of the BBC. (From The Decade In Tory)

Conservative Shadow Culture Secretary Nigel Huddleston tells GB News that the BBC should "grovel" to Trump. Amazing how many British 'patriots' are spending their time telling our national broadcaster to prostrate itself before a hostile foreign leader

This petition will be mentioned in Parliament now that it has reached over 10,000 signatures. Please keep signing and sharing it, the more people who sign, the more attention it will garner for possible debate. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

This is actually good spin, or would have been. But the fact that the Democratic cave happened without even a coordinated, agreed-upon message like this indicates the depth of the leadership void.

🤬 Foreign Affairs: ▪️Russia plans to occupy Ukraine in three stages: first, capture Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, and Odessa to cut it off from the Black Sea; ▪️economic and political pressure; ▪️complete subordination of Ukraine according to the Belarusian scenario.

Great to see people catching up on Sir Robbie Gibb's role in setting up GB News - five years after @nafeez.bsky.social explained on @bylinetimes.bsky.social

The Israeli and Russian embassies have both joined Trump in criticising the broadcaster.

Nigel Farage, Boris Johnson, Donald Trump, the Murdoch press, the Tories' Shadow Culture Secretary, the Israeli Embassy in London & Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs have all now weighed in to the attack on the BBC. Crooks & liars all agree: It's time to kill the BBC.

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

Bird flu is being painted as a problem wild birds are inflicting on the poultry industry, but it's precisely the reverse. Where do they think it developed in the first place, if not in the disease incubators that are mass battery farms? share.google/K4FBGkiuuUdc...

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

Another case of Reform saying one thing then doing the other: A Reform-led council is planning to double council tax on second homes six months after party leader Nigel Farage denounced such policies as “madness” and “extortion” By me, for Politics Home www.politicshome.com/news/article...

John Le Carre was right about the British establishment and how the alumni of the best schools will sell out their own country for status and money and in particular a desperate desire for American attention

Breaking News! Code UFB!!! The three-year running mean for the global surface temperature anomaly now exceeds 1.50°C over the pre-industrial baseline, as of November 8, 2025. Are you there, COP 30? It's me, the Paris Agreement.

🇺🇸🇺🇦❗️Trump again stated that the US is no longer spending money on aid to Ukraine. "We spent $350 billion. We are not spending any more money. Now they pay us through NATO. And if I were not president, this war could lead to World War III. It will not lead anymore."

New post: Labour’s Brexit stance is as untenable as their tax pledge mainlymacro.blogspot.com/2025/11/labo... As public perception and econometric estimates of the damage caused by Brexit rise, Labour's refusal to discuss rejoining the EU's customs union or single market means more self harm.

The BBC is in crisis in the same way that GB News would be if you put Owen Jones on the board armed with a veto and plenty of coffee.

I do not understand the Labour government's reticence over defending the BBC and social media regulation. Their long-term survival basically depends on it. Their cowardice in the face of it may be the single thing they are most remembered for. on.ft.com/3JVxC1Z via @FT

Farage is proud of being Trump's British errand boy. Here are some photos of Trump with pedophiles.

lol she got his ass and he knows it

“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-...

When was the last time anyone at the BBC had to resign for misrepresenting a leftwinger?

If you have a doubt the MAGA attack on the BBC is not co-ordinated, read what GB News owner told the US “We need you to come and save us. To rescue us … You are making America great again… We need to make Britain great again” subscribe.bylinetimes.com/edition/79/a...

How by attempting to appease the forces on the right seeking to destroy them, the BBC has helped trigger a crisis that now threatens its very future bylinetimes.com/2025/11/10/t...

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?
