This is a very interesting insight into the BBC.
The reaction to the Panorama edit has been nothing short of hysterical. Yes the BBC has some impartiality problems. But its biggest isn't the one you think.

New piece from me.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten.

Despite the so called Reform UK Ltd surge they have only managed to keep hold of 50% of their seats in by-elections since May

By contrast Liberal Democrats have retained 93%.

More proof the Russians are not welcome in our politics. 🇷🇺

Liberal Democrat gain from Reform, by a comfortqble margin.

Since May there've been 8 by-elections caused by Reform councillors resigning within monthss of being elected. Of those, they've successfully defended only 4 - retention rate of only 50%.

Of the four lost, Liberal Democrats have gained 2.
Bromsgrove South (Worcestershire) Council By-Election Result:

🔶 LDM: 51.9% (+20.3)
➡️ RFM: 33.4% (-1.5)
🌳 CON: 11.3% (-5.8)
🌹 LAB: 3.4% (-4.1)

No GRN (-5.5) or Ind (-3.4) as previous.

Liberal Democrat GAIN from Reform.
Changes w/ 2025.

Just heard Chris Philp on BBC’s Today programme explaining why the Tories want to leave the ECHR. He claimed ECHR isn’t mentioned in Belfast Agreement - which is simply untrue. The UK govt agreed to incorporate it into NI law & give direct access to the courts (Strand 3). Why no BBC fact-check?

Indeed so, literally IN the agreement 🤷‍♂️astounding that journalists don’t know to google facts when a politician lies
