Not sure when we decided it’s a good idea to pretend Republicans are acting in good faith.

This cannot be reposted enough.

Enjoy @raskin.house.gov call Farage a “Putin-loving free speech imposter and Trump sycophant” to his face in the U.S. Congress a few months ago.

He’s not only that, though; he’s a conman, a liar, a charlatan, and a threat to British society and national security.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

I've always felt that Johnson and Farage put self-interest over the national interest - hence their dallying with Putin and his oligarchs. But directly colluding with a foreign government to take down the BBC feels like an act of supreme treachery

Just absolutely classic BBC. You've just broadcast the most successful programme of the year, uniting Gen Z kids online and Boomers on broadcast in a return to appointment television. And instead of celebrating, your DG reigns due to a made-up right-wing scandal.

"Either Schumer was scheming to end the shutdown behind the scenes, pretending to be against it while pinning the blame on the eight people who aren’t up for reelection anytime soon, or he has no control over his party. Either way, it proves the need for Democrats to jettison the minority leader."

Starmer has no imagination, zero political nous, and is obsessed with 'doing things correctly'.

I'd be willing to bet he wouldn't exceed the speed limit even if he were driving away from London to avoid an imminent nuclear strike.

Michael Prescott's report makes vital points about the importance of being accurate, and also how difficult that is. For instance, he describes himself as having been Political Editor of the Sunday Times for 10 years, which is not what the Guardian reported when he left the job.

I don't often call for resignations. But Sir Robbie Gibb's role in the BBC boardroom coup makes his continued role there untenable. He must resign or be removed
‘Gibb’s supporters say he is trying to save the BBC from itself; he was also heard last year to say that if he didn’t get his way, he would “blow the place up”.’
“a group of politically-appointed directors has forced the hand of Samir Shah,the chair, and the departure of the two most senior people in the organisation. Their resignations should be called out for what they are: political interference..”1/

For years, I have fully expected the hapless, twice-failed Tory council candidate, Tim Davie, to resign as BBC DG at the wrong moment over entirely the wrong issue.

Is it impartial enough to say he hasn't disappointed?

Its decision to leave the Tory appointees in post at the BBC is one of so many Labour have made that I can't begin to understand. Any guesses?

There appears to be no ends to the number of gravy trains set up by the corrupt tory government. No wonder there is no money left.
The government has recovered £74m from excessive profits made by companies running asylum accommodation, the BBC can reveal.

The Home Office said it had recouped the money following a review of contracts after Labour came to power last year.

Government recovers £74m from asylum hotel firms
The amount recouped remains a small percentage of the overall cost of asylum accommodation.

When someone pretends that something that happened four or five years ago is “ancient history,” they’re usually desperate to minimise or hide something.
"This is ancient history."

That is all Reform have to say about their former Welsh leaders links to the Kremlin.

No accountability.

As unpatriotic as you can get.

God knows how many times this has happened: Zero.

Much like Vance lying about Haitian immigrants eating people's pets, this is 100% racist bullshit being spewed by an unabashed white nationalist.
