In these times of rancour & division, it’s comforting to find things on which we can all agree: Kent County Council, for example, really does provide a perfect illustration of how well Reform would run the country. I agree with Nigel!

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

Boris Johnson says the idea that criticism of the BBC is being organised by the right is ‘complete and utter bollocks’, which makes me think there might be something in it.

Everton game moved last minute to a ridiculous time that'll cause travel chaos because a crying Sky 6 club demands it. Of course.

Lest we forget the millions sent to their deaths or who suffered horrendous injuries and who returned to a Britain that largely ignored their physical and mental suffering. Also the ruling classes who made such a mess of the peace that it led to the rise of fascism in Europe.

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.

Poppy debate rears its head regarding Irish players etc.
I don't think people should be called out for not wearing one.
From my perspective having visited the Somme and Ypres Salient it's remembering the ordinary people who gave their lives protecting others.
Not glorifying the army or war.
