I would like to see numbers on this. I am the same (though was not as avid a R4 listener as some it seems 🤣) & now don’t do any BBC news! I think their viewership/listeners must have cratered as the right wing loons are now deep into GBeebies and YT conspiracy garbage so won’t be replacing anyone!
May 20, 2025 at 12:30 PM
Why are Labour not addressing the clear bias of the BBC? They are doing exactly what Biden admin did and tried to play politics by old rules - all they are doing is creating a pause between right wing loon govts!
May 20, 2025 at 12:24 PM
How is that even betraying Brexit? That is like saying Labour winning the last election was a betrayal of the previous election result!

We either fully rejoin or create the exact same relationship, probably at much more cost, with lots of deals that aren’t called but are the same as CU and SM!

Is that today? Don’t see it reported anywhere else!

PS. JVL ( @jvl.bsky.social ) being on bsky is one of the best things about it - he hated Xitter before it was cool 🤣

It’s so true! I think it is hard to ignore how Trump’s birtherism landed so well for many looking for the reaction to Obama being elected. It was such a shock to the fundamentalists in the right wing that the unthinkable happened and they reacted with moving further right!

Thoughts on Polis now?? bsky.app/profile/shan...

Polis is still soft-pedaling Trumpism

Thoughts on this Tom? Do you agree with the stance and will you be referring to it as the Gulf or America? bsky.app/profile/thea...
Trump’s decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico may be upsetting to some, writes @giladedelman.bsky.social, but “in a democracy, values are determined by majority rule, and they don’t shift in only one direction. They can shift back”:
‘The Gulf of America’ Is the Wrong Fight to Pick
The more that politicians mess around with place names, the more important it is to respond according to consistent principles.

Ben, I really know not a lot, but is there any state laws that are being broken here? Seems like fed laws don’t apply to the MAGAs and won’t proceed but what about state?

I am hoping “caution” is not the same as you discarding it as an option as you do know that this has to be an option - and very soon! “Freedom isn’t free” - is that not how the saying goes? Generations have braved much more danger than this to gain and keep American’s freedom.

Exactly this!!

Great movie. Was surprised to find that Dominic Sessa, who played Angus, had never acted in anything before this. A really good debut performance!

Hadn’t seen this before - great essay from Claire. Thanks @jvl.bsky.social for highlighting!
December 20, 2024 at 11:13 PM
Great piece and great points. I also remember, when smartphones became ubiquitous I just knew that was the end of police brutality and clampdowns on protests - as everyone will be able to see the truth in realtime! #yeahNowIFeelStoopid

And also the EU one was not driven by Russian bots on Xitter!

Yes!!

I think you know the answer to that…

Indeed. As you also said, the alternative will be this bsky.app/profile/mcub...
I think the wrong questions r being asked about the proposed tariffs. The real question Is how little will he accept from Mexico , Canada and China in order to be able to say the threat of tariffs worked ?
