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.

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.

I look forward to the party conference and leader of the Greens at Westminster getting the same amount of coverage as the other party with 4 MPs - aye right! Unbelievable.

September 1, and across Ukraine, hundreds of thousands of schoolchildren and students are returning to school.

And fascist Russia just launched a MiG-31K warplane with a Kinzhal aeroballistic missile, triggering a countrywide air alert, sending them all to shelters.

Pathetic.

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone that Brexit has been slammed as a 'complete disaster' that 'ruined most of the country' in a poll marking nine years since the UK voted to leave the EU

Brexit a 'disaster' that 'ruined the country' - referendum 'should be repeated'
On the ninth anniversary of the day the UK voted to leave the EU, we asked readers to have their say on whether Brexit has been a success - and Mirror readers had a lot to say on the matter.

Meanwhile in London there’s a military parade for an actual King - looking at what the princes are wearing I’m wondering if there’s some trolling going on?

Most Brits think we should stay in the ECHR and protect our British-European values…

Makes perfect sense. And also-

1) It protects us from Trump-like behaviour with his own citizens

2) It underpins our criminal data-sharing with Europe.

Leave ECHR and we’d become a haven for criminals.
