Amazing results from the BBC's "Our Future" public review - almost 1m respondents and impartiality/independence is the number 1, clearest message. Surely their leadership can't ignore this now? www.bbc.co.uk/ourbbcourfut...

I look forward to seeing this story receiving wall-to-wall coverage on the BBC News, now that they have openly admitted they are giving Farage and Reform more coverage due to their political “importance”

Right, the BBC’s platforming of Farage is getting completely out of hand. On the left, the 4 stories mentioning Ed Davey on the BBC News app since April 1st. On the right, some of the 40+ stories about Nigel Farage in the same period.

So let me get this straight: when Disney got involved with Doctor Who, they restarted the series count and promised it would be a fresh start, great for brand new viewers…

Harsh truth: if you reshare a piece of fake news to enquire whether it’s real, find out it’s not and then DON’T delete your post, I’m afraid you are very much part of the problem.

Just finished @emmakennedy.bsky.social‘s beautiful “Letters from Brenda” - next up is @herring1967.bsky.social‘s “Can I have my ball back”. Two books about the impact of losing a precious loved-one, told with humour and love.

This sort of crap is the worst type of click bait drivel and it drives me mad. An entire “article” about one whiny tweet. Imagine having to take credit due churning this nonsense out every day.

The #TraitorsUK featuring an INSANE task involving backward singing dolls on the day that David Lynch died feels VERY appropriate AND spooky.

While explaining the origin of “damp squib” to a colleague today, I used the term “special effects” and immediately felt 150 years old.

The detective work in this season of #TheTraitorsUK has been so abysmal. They’re all like “I’m voting for yourself Geoff, because you’ve got grey hair and that’s exactly the sort of hair a traitor would have”

I genuinely believe the bastardisation and attempt to re-define the word 'Woke' is the single biggest demonstration of what is wrong with the world right now. Every time somebody uses it in a negative way it makes me lose another tiny morsel of hope that society is in some way redeemable.
