The BBC has be seriously nobbled by the Tories.
I agree.
However, we desperately need a properly functioning BBC.

Totally correct. I have no sympathy for “saving” the BBC because Boris and Davie, Gibb et al have fatally wounded it. How can anyone lead it out of the mortuary?

Universal Credit allows bosses to get away with paying wages that are too low to live on. Don't stigmatise the millions of hard-working people who depend on it as 'lazy'.

Wrong. You can't be a 'legend' and 'engaged in rank racism and sexism' at the same time.
It's so frustrating. This misconception is still alive and kicking in today's science circles. Those labelled as 'geniuses' should not be forgiven their awfulness to others.

Nancy Pelosi's legacy historically will be as one of the most powerful women in U.S. politics. She was and still is the only woman to serve as House Speaker, and she was the chief architect of Obamacare. History will look back on her kindly, whereas Trump will be a dark stain to be glossed over.
