Yes, Tiago. You are correct.

Rose from Tavistock and others have pointed this out. Fine actor that Spencer Tracy was 😊

Paul from Twickenham, needs to sort out this faux pas that he keeps repeating 😬

@natashadevon.bsky.social, I'll take ½ a mark for the SEND discussion circa 8.30pm 😇

But on a serious note... @johnharris1969.bsky.social has written authoritively and movingly on Special Educational Needs and Disability, and the fight for funding not to be cut.

Jamie from Burntwood (7.38pm) Re: Richard Tice.

'I’ll..raise one more point, the sight of children in classes wearing ear defenders, I’m sorry, this is just insane. It’s got to stop. The teachers want it to stop. Heads want it to stop. It’s not the right way forward'.

Sorry to be a pedant but Paul from Twickenham (circa 6.55pm) a regular caller to @lbc.co.uk, said @theguardian.com Columnist, Simon Jenkins, should watch 12 Angry Men, with Spencer Tracy.

Paul's made this mistake before. It's an all-star cast (Henry Fonda, Jack Klugman, etc) but Tracy ain't in it 😬

Rob Bates from the 'Centre for Migration Control' has just been on @lbc.co.uk with Vanessa Feltz (circa 3.35pm),spouting some bollocks Re: Asylum Seekers using taxis....🙄

Bates did not say he represented a shadily-funded, Right-Wing, Anti-Migrant pressure group.

Jeff Ford in 2011:

'[Ford] was no worried if Channel 5 was "not liked by a few people, if we're not liked by the chattering classes"'.

Having had Tory Pornographer, Richard Desmond, own Channel 5 for many years, this attitude doesn't surprise me.....🙄

Whilst Jeff Ford left Channel 4 long ago, I think he had a very malign influence on its output, where Poverty Porn, Poverty Safari, laughing at the poor programming, etc, increased in frequency.

Some good quotes from Ford, defending C5's exploitative output 👇🏾
