Stand for breaking down barriers rather than creating them.
But this morning after a difficult week, they look to be in chaos and indecisive.
A press conference last week and confirming on Monday that income tax will increase. Telling us that without increasing it, capital spending will be cut.
Now suddenly, they're not doing it

They are doing their best whilst being undermined by most of the media who are pro-Tory and pro-Farage

Abolishing PCCs is the right thing to do
Hardly anyone turns out in the elections for them unless more important elections are taking place at the same time. Most people don't even know what they do.
And seems to me that it causes duplication

Huh? How do you do a "balancing" program when one candidate did an insurgency trying to overturn the election and the other...didn't?
Would Prescott have been satisfied with an hour of people telling BBC journalists why they didn't try and stoke a riot to overturn Trump's second win?

Michael Prescott was ‘“shocked” that after an hour-long Panorama documentary dealing with Trump and the January 6 insurgency, there was no “similar, balancing” programme about Kamala Harris.’
More read about the machinations between the BBC resignations, the more worrying it becomes

The departure of Tim Davie and Deborah Turness means the BBC is leaderless when it needs leadership more than ever. Where are the people at the head of the BBC standing up for it?

In other words, US politicians and pressure groups can pipe the party line directly into millions of households unchallenged, in a way that is much harder in the UK.
This has a huge impact both on trust and cohesion, and on whether politicians feel the need to appeal to moderates or just partisans.

Here’s the same data, but with trust broken down by political views (circles are trust among people on the left, +s the right).
It’s not just that the BBC is widely consumed — it also has solid trust on both left & right, whereas trust in the biggest US media brands is hugely polarised.

Really clear that this whole BBC attack is coordinated including internal elements.
The BBC has already been a 2nd advertising space for Farage and co.
Obviously, not extreme enough for The Telegraph..

Can the media now focus on how Farage's Mrs financed nearly £900k cash to buy a house, despite her parents not being able to afford it and her working as a waitress so also unable.
Please.
Reeves not paying £900 was insignificant in comparison and she did no wrong.

So why does the BBC label the academic and economist Faiza Shaheen an "activist" but refuse to do the same for the former academic, turned anti-migrant activist Matt Goodwin?
