People and political parties should be standing up for the BBC against this Bully of a president.

"Three Rich Men"?

They'll want a lot in return for their money if Farage & his gang ever got elected to government.

So the racist turkeys who vote for him and ReformUK would be voting for Christmas and their own exploitation.

The biggest singular, most positive and most achievable press reform would be the banning of BBC "paper reviews".

The likes of the telegraph, mail and sun would be nothing without the BBC pushing their fringe bullshit to tens of millions, nearly every single hour of every single day.

I really think it’s time Justin packs up his things and heads over to GB News. He’s barely able to contain conspiracy theory leanings and MAGA admiration. He tries to disguise it as contrarianism, but it’s there bubbling away every time I listen to him #r4today

I'm on my way to a Chanukah event. It should be a celebration but instead our community is once again mourning.

I will be thinking of everyone in Australia and those around the world in the Jewish Community who know this fear and loss.

We stand with you.

The UK has been flying spy planes over Gaza for the duration of the genocide, providing intelligence to Israel to help coordinate its airstrikes. This data could've been provided to the ICJ & ICC. Instead, the UK is an active participant in the #GazaGenocide. #UKPolitics youtu.be/0fk3t28TiAc?...

He'll face far more aggressive and hectoring interviews than this, but @zackpolanski.bsky.social gave a confident performance under quite forensic questioning from Evan Davis.
