So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

This is an entirely preventable attack on our democracy.
A £9m donation from a man based on the other side of the world is illegitimate interference that will distort and unbalance our political system.
I'm deeply disturbed by Labour's failure to insulate UK democracy.

Portraying weakening the European Convention on Human Rights as the answer to the issues society faces is extremely dangerous. It opens the door to us one day leaving the ECHR altogether
Labour’s plan risks weakening protections for all of us. Human rights are universal - politicians may not always find them politically convenient but it shouldn’t fall to any government to say who those rights should and should not apply to. It’s a slippery slope to oblivion youtu.be/bl0Lm7v_T18?...

This Rayner thing has me furious. Yes she probably has to go but Farage is literally paid into and offshore vehicle to hide tax. Rees Mogg has a company in Cayman and countless other right wing grifters avoid and evade tax every day but absolute silence. Honestly hate the media in this country.
