Fiona Bruce is a tory. Most employees of BBC come from traditional tory backgrounds, we shouldn't be surprised at right wing attitude and policies in the BBC

Remember this happens and has been happening every time with every single SNP representative…there is rarely an opportunity to counter the outright lies told by unionist politicians (more often than not supported or perpetrated by Bruce herself)…

Second nature to her. She's had years & years of experience doing that to anyone from the SNP.

I cannot watch that programme! I admire your courage in watching it and I totally agree re: Bruce. Sick of seeing her smug face on so many BBC programmes.

Fiona Bruce embodies a certain sort of BBC know-it-all smugness. A true heir to John Humphrys.

Fiona Bruce, "I'm going to move on. I know you want to come in Zack, you'll definitely get your chance"

After letting Zia Yusuf spew drivel for 1 minute and 55 seconds, Fiona Bruce cuts off Zack Polanski and doesn't let him correct Yusuf

Starbucks Announces Closure of Over 100 North American Stores #starbucks #storeclosures #coffee #corporateupdate #businessnews #restructuring #northamerica #retailnews #coffeeindustry #starbucksnews #businessupdate #corporatechanges

Starbucks has announced the closure of over 100 North American stores, representing approximately 1% of its corporate-owned locations. The company has not released an official list of affected stores; however, Business Insider has compiled a list based on reports from in-store staff, journalist visits, and the Starbucks store locator tool. The closures span several states, including California, Washington, New York, Texas, and Virginia, among others.

Notably, the iconic Capitol Hill Reserve Roastery in Seattle, which opened in 2014, is among the closures. This location was significant not only for its unique offerings but also as one of Starbucks' first unionized stores. Starbucks has stated that the decision to close this store is part of a broader initiative to close underperforming corporate-owned locations across North America. The company emphasized that the union status of the store played no role in the decision, and efforts are being made to reassign affected employees.

The closures are part of a broader restructuring effort by Starbucks, which also includes the layoff of approximately 900 non-retail employees. The company has estimated that the restructuring will cost around $1 billion, including expenses related to employee separation and early lease terminations. Despite these closures, Starbucks plans to open more stores and refurbish over 1,000 existing locations in fiscal year 2026.

AND call out every AIPAC compromised politician that supported Israel, flew to Israel, or stayed silent. AIPAC should be labeled a terrorist organization for supporting genocide and buying politicians. Clean house.

Absolutely right,but both you and I and the whole wide world knows that Netanyahu and his monsters will be back slaughtering once the dust has settled.
Whilst it is good to see the Israeli PRISONERS and the Palestinian HOSTAGES released,IDF will arrest anyone who moves in Palestine.

Starmer ... a genocide enabler. A supporter of a regime who are starving an entire population.

Thought I would say all this before the slithering toad does in fact end free speech unless it is something he agrees with.
