I understand the need to have an Army recruitment campaign but money from tax revenues going to Murdoch like this sticks in the craw.

The emerging story around Reform UK and Russia is not a loose collection of allegations, it's a set of verifiable events that, when placed side-by-side, raise structural questions about the party’s susceptibility to foreign influence operations.

JD Vance owns a company that buys American real estate and sells it to foreign investors. They specifically target Americans in crisis to buy their property for less than it is worth.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Whole fucking thing makes me sick to my stomach. An abject fucking liar, a man who lies as easily as he fucking breathes, threatening an organisation which strives for truthfulness. And plastic patriots like the Mail and Farage urging him on. Jackels.

Sadly, absolutely correct.
There was a time when I'd have cared deeply about the BBC.
But they adopted a deliberate policy of kowtowing to the right, backing away from every fight, believing compliance would protect the license fee, and the right would leave them alone.
Stand up to bullies, or get knocked down by reality.

The far right has been legitimised by Labour, Conservatives and Reform and all those journalists and channels that have either failed to hold them to account or actively supported them - meanwhile, international law has been eviscerated - the weak, the cowardly and the greedy have succeeded

I genuinely do NOT understand the idiocy of having Putin proxies on TV News, like Sergei Markov just now screaming Russian propaganda on Sky News for ten minutes.
We are at war with Russia. When before has UK media ever platformed enemy states who attack our allies and poison people in our streets?
