So will the BBC be doorstepping Nigel Farage or Zia Yusuf for comment? They're never usually backwards at interviewing them. Also will #GBeebies cover the news at all?

We are PRIVATE citizens; the government should know the bare minimum about us.

The government, supposedly, consists of PUBLIC servants. We should know everything about them.

Starmer and his cohorts have it arse-backwards.

I didn’t know who Charlie Kirk was before he was killed.
I don’t care who Charlie Kirk was, he has no impact on my life.
Why the hell is Charlie Kirk headline news in the UK?

The Sun in 2025 vs The Sun in 2016.

Another Brexit lie busted.

Of course the Sun’s new article makes no apology, or even mention, of their 2016 front page splash - which was ruled “misleading” by the press watchdog at the time - but what did The Sun care, when the lie served its purpose anyway.

Why, you might ask, do the BBC and Sky News, casting their editorial guidelines to the wind, keep giving massive airtime to the far right, while shutting out leftwing voices? Don't their bosses understand the likely consequences?
Only one explanation now remains.
They do.
And it is what they want.

Disappointing to watch Martin Geissler not challenge Reforms new MSP when he asserts that Reform are a centre right party. Centre right parties don't deport people, scrap human rights laws or withdraw from international treaties. #scotcast

The scenes in Gaza are horrifying to watch. Israel is deliberately starving civilians. Children are dying as food and aid are blocked.

Nothing can justify it. Enough is enough.

The UK government must force Israel to let aid into Gaza, and the killing must stop. Now.

Gaza is being deliberately starved to death in front of the whole world, and the only people being arrested over it are those who opposed the crime.

So, the BBC has platformed Nigel Farage 38 times on Question Time and will not show Kneecap performing a set at Glastonbury.

Impartial broadcaster eh?

If you do pay your licence, stop now.

The #BBC have a #Glastonbury problem. So worried are they about offending right-wing media that not only can they not show #Kneecap live. Presenters dare not mention Kneecap or the brilliant set from #BobVylan earlier. They have to create a parallel fake festival not to offend r/w media.

This weird little country of ours is moving into a dangerous place. When the powers that be are more concerned about making an example of those protesting genocide, than taking action against those carrying out genocide, there's something far wrong.

There can be no justification for Labour's continued material support of the Israeli genocide being inflicted on Gaza.

It's a disgrace that they arm, support and whitewash these war crimes. It must end now.

The Prime Minister’s statement on immigration today will damage our economy, the NHS, social care and our universities. It ignores the need to boost Scotland’s working age population.

This sort of divisive language only plays into Nigel Farage’s hands.

Not in Scotland’s name.

Happy #VEDay everyone. A chance to remember when Britain fought fascism instead of voting it into its councils, or selling it arms.

Lots of comments on #VEDay coverage about how proud we should be about the pomp and ceremony - "Nobody does it quite like us!". I'd rather be able to be proud about us eliminating child poverty and giving people a decent pension.
