I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

Entirely agree with all of this. Phone-ins aren't journalism
Drop phone-ins.
Only attract discontented people.
Bulk of population, being content, don't phone in or listen.
So phone-in shows only platform a small unrepresentative few.
Vox Pops are pointless time wasting.

You’ll hear “the disability benefits bill is soaring” a lot today but remember. Public spending on pensioner entitlements has risen from 5.3% of GDP to 6% over the last 20 years, whilst the working-age benefits bill has remained static. Consider why one of these is controversial.

I note with interest right-wing media's total absence of any concerns about prominent BBC presenter Armstrong expressing his highly political opinions. As was always perfectly clear to many of us, the problem was not that Lineker had views, but the fact they didn't approve of his views.

Donald Trump sparked outrage worldwide with his shocking display of bullying at Friday's Oval office meeting with Ukraine’s President Zelensky. Now, over 145,000 of us are calling to cancel his second UK state visit - will you join the backlash too? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
No second state visit for Trump
Unbelievable. Keir Starmer has handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and should not go ahead.
