Reform UK Leicestershire are crooks.
They announced consultants Newton would do a £1.4m savings review.
That’s ballooned to £30m in 6 just days.
Leader Dan Harrison is a con man.

I didn’t think I could hate anyone the way I hate Farage. But what I hate more is the fact that everyone from the BBC to the government is indulging this third-rate Pound Shop wannabe dictator. Just take him on - he’s fucking useless!

Brilliant, so we the taxpayers and #BBC license fee payers have to pay up the mafioso in the White House who is suing the BBC for telling the truth about 6th Jan, but has done it in the wrong time order.

The fact that the BBC has made serious culpable errors does not negate the point that there is a real and concerted right-wing media campaign to destroy it. Both points can be true at the same time and the campaign would not end even if the errors did.

Dominic Cummings, in an earlier incarnation, ran a secretly-funded 'think tank' dedicated to attacking the Beeb while Robbie Gibb glided effortlessly from GBNews to the BBC & started lecturing staff on impartiality. Imagine (cos you'll have to) how the 'left-wing' equivalent would be reported.

In 'How They Broke Britain', I do a pretty good job of detailing the depth & breadth of Tufton Street/Tory/Murdoch/Mail attempts to scupper the BBC, even as I castigate some presenters for going too easy on precisely the people who seek the Corporation's abolition. But I should have done more. 1/2

Online violence against women, for want of a better word, is being perpetrated by fascists, Nazis, religious fundamentalists and incels. It will destroy the quality of our government and democracy., which depends on getting pluralist voices into decision-making.

It’s not at all clear to me how the BBC can do any kind of serious journalism if its top two bosses can be forced to quit over such an obviously confected scandal. There is no substantive error here. How can the BBC report on Trump, or Farage, or anyone else, in these circumstances?

Losing both the director-general and the very obvious heir apparent as the result of such an orchestrated attack is truly existential stuff for the BBC.
It’s also a *massive* challenge for Lisa Nandy, who has so far failed to impress anyone as culture secretary.

If developments in the United States take a more radical and violent turn then you can now pretty much guarantee that the BBC will only report the full extent of these escalation spirals long after their consequences have become too obvious to play down.
