Looks like the new Director General of the BBC is going to be a showbiz girl @maitlis.bsky.social Billie Piper. Or at least. That's the claim. I did talk to her a few times. No idea whet she made of me .

Davie didn't listen to a single word I said to him about what was going on inside BBC Broadcasting House. Complete waste of effort to talk to him...

It was great to see Betty Brown on last night's #Newsnight @vicderbyshire.bsky.social Cheered me up for the rest of the week 🙂 I first found out about the PO scandal from the Postmistress at Walkey PO in Sheffield. She was able to get legal help for that.

#WesStreeting is doing nothing for #NHS. He's replacing OUR doctors with poorly qualified staff and paying them more than the doctors who have trained for a long time. He's in the pockets of private healthcare leeches #Newsnight @privateeyenews.bsky.social

I couldn't possibly believe anything that Musk says because of what he said to me in South Africa and in the States about his various business practices. Which were declared to be illegal by the U.S. IRS and South African authorities.
"You spout shite on a podcast to reinforce your 𝘰𝘸𝘯 position that "civil war is coming"... it's a self-fulfilling prophecy."
Elon Musk has now claimed England’s ‘hobbit-like’ towns are rife with rape while on Joe Rogan’s podcast.
