Robbie Gibb should have been ruled out of the running for the BBC Board in 2021: it was clear he'd been closely involved in setting up GB News - an ideological project aiming to rival to the BBC, & therefore a clear conflict of interest. The fact he was still allowed to join always rang alarm bells.

Hi Nigel Farage, do you approve of your councillors calling people “black cock slapper junkies”, whilst talking to Paul Golding of Britain First?
Because your councillor Peter Mason did that, and Leader on Staffordshire Council Ian Cooper thinks it’s fine…

Sickening footage of South Durham Huntsman Richard Smith hitting a poor horse on the head as the hunt master Rob Wilkinson seemingly finds it all rather amusing.

“It’s a smear” - Donald Trump
There could be an email in there in which Trump confesses to being the second gunman on the grassy knoll, and his cult will love him for it.
Surely, if you know you are in the Epstein files, the best thing to do is to go public now, hold up your hands & confess to whatever you have done?
However bad for you, it will be better than keeping your head down and waiting until the Epstein files are released and we all know what you have done.

I'd like to think that Auntie would return the favour and stop platforming far-right racists and grifters, but inevitably, this will see the BBC crawl even further up Farage's poopipe.

As is often the case, it's the ones who are here legally that you've got to watch out for. Round them up and fuck them off.
Police have named the couple they’re looking for in connection to a racist incident on the tube and they’re wealthy Trump supporters and founders of an “anti-woke” PR firm.

We dubbed it ‘Hamasgate’, the right wing went crazy over a simple truism - even suggesting I’d broken UK terror laws. MPs, Peers, the Daily Mail obvs, GB News - and others. It was crazy. I sued the ones that wouldn't correct what they’d said - current score 9 - 0.

If we're talking about bias, why do BBC politics programmes, from Politics Live to the Laura Kuennsberg Show, still always begin with a look at the newspaper front pages, which are overwhelmingly biased in one direction. Helps frame the entire news agenda and debate in their favour
