What an incredible act of self harm Brexit was.
New Brexit economic impact report. It’s even worse than was predicted
A 6-8% reduction in GDP
Investment reduced 12-18%
Employment and productivity down 3-4%

Headline from a serious and long working paper on the economic impact of Brexit. Possible that this has been feeding into OBR and HMT discussions?

Neither Tim Davie nor Deborah Turness incited an insurrection against the US Capitol. Congressman didn’t have to flee for their lives because of a BBC Panorama edit.
That all happened because of President Donald Trump. If he didn’t resign, it’s truly *insane* that anyone else does.

Press Gazette: "No one today has mentioned the BBC’s disastrous indecision and refusal to air the brilliant Gaza: Doctors Under Attack documentary as among the mistakes leading up to this crisis." Channel 4 eventually aired it and it's already won awards.

Trump incited violence on 6 January 2021.
An outside producer made a bad edit when there's plenty of material to show that.
Today Trump is granting pardons to dozens of people involved in that day's attempt to sabotage the handover of power.
The BBC doesn't report, but flagellates itself.

Which British politician does the BBC News give prominence to in response to Samir Shah's letter? - No prize in guessing that it's Nigel Farage.
The BBC is institutionally biased in favour of Farage. That is the real scandal, and it is being covered up by the establishment.

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/

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.
