Should Gibb be sacked? yes, obviously. He's an abomination of basic journalistic standards. His GB News channel spreads conspiracy theory & disinformation. His Jewish Chronicle newspaper spreads invented stories. He is plainly trying to undermine the BBC so it's as bad as everything else he touches.

At its core, fascism is about cult leaders making money out of hate. There hasn't been a fascist leader yet who hasn't milked the nation he's supposedly "devoted" to for every penny it's got! Hitler did it. Putin does it. Trump does it. And Farage can't wait to do the same!

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/

Tim Davie leaves the BBC with his mission almost accomplished.

That mission, of course, was to destroy the BBC.

www.bylinesupplement.com/p/the-bbcs-r... The capture of the #BBC by the malevolent right wing, its cowardice and its failure to stand up for what’s right has been one of the biggest drivers of the destruction of the UK.

Starmer will go down in history as the man who destroyed a 100 year old Labour movement by selling it out to the rich for the sake of his own career and advancement. The Tories are dead, Labour is dead, time for a new left based on the Greens, the Celtic indy parties & the old Labour left.

Great to hear London Labour MPs panicking about losing their seats to the Green Party.

For clarity, though - this goes way beyond just London.

Across England & Wales, we're saying lower bills, tax billionaires and we're ready to take on Reform.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Labour were broken a long time ago.

Time to replace them with a party that actually represents everyone - not just the billionaires.

A party that rejects Reform - rather than copies them.

Time to make hope normal again.

Those of us in the UK watching the horror show currently happening in the US and thinking "it could never happen here" are very similar to those in the US who determined that it could never happen there. We are on the verge of a right-wing takeover. Do not look away.

Life certainly was better in the EU: Brits were richer, freer, happier, more respected. Whether they deserved it is quite another matter.

Nobody needs a FIFA Peace Price. Nobody asked for a FIFA Peace Prize. Your last two Men's World Cup hosts were Russia and Qatar. Your next Men's World Cup finals host is blowing up boats in the Caribbean right now. Shut the fuqq up, FIFA.
