Q: Is the president prepared to bankrupt the BBC?
LEAVITT: This is a leftist propaganda machine that unfortunately is subsidized by British taxpayers, and he thinks that's extremely unfortunate for the great people of the UK

We are so far through the looking glass that the man who tried to overthrow an election becomes president, the people who attacked the Capitol are turned into martyrs, & it's the BBC that gets punished - cheered on by the worst news outlets in the UK & the two most dishonest politicians of our age.
It’s not at all clear to me how the BBC can do any kind of serious journalism if its top two bosses can be forced to quit over such an obviously confected scandal. There is no substantive error here. How can the BBC report on Trump, or Farage, or anyone else, in these circumstances?

Pathetic. You can try and explain the Overton window theory until the cows come home, this is nothing but cowardice to Trump, right wing papers, reform etc. If the BBC has any chance of survival in the next decade it needs to fight not bend

If parties want credit for telling hard truths, they need to tell them when they're genuinely hard.
If Labour had told the truth about taxes & the costs of Brexit before the election, its majority would be smaller.
But it would have more real power & the public would put more faith in its judgment

She is telling an accurate story of recent history - the triple punch of austerity, Brexit and covid. It's spot on. But it is terribly strange to say it now in government when you were not prepared to say it in opposition.

How has it taken 17 months in power for Labour to finally tell the truth. Covid cost a fortune, Brexit ruined growth and austerity harm growth. Borrowing more was never going to be enough, tax rises were always going to happen but they need to get it right.

Kinnock is one of the finest proponents of progressive thought in this country and the best prime minister we never had.
In 2010, an interviewer told Neil Kinnock that the Labour Party "never used to understand aspiration".
Kinnock gave an absolutely brilliant answer that should be learned by heart by every Labour MP. (0.42 to 1.22)

I disagree with Zarah Sultana on many things but I do kinda feel sorry for her wandering into battle with a bunch of people who've been doing Bennite factionalism for the last 50 years.

You'd feel pretty foolish if your political heroes were involved in this
The split in Your Party has broken into the open.
Jeremy Corbyn urges supporters not to donate to the link promoted by Zarah Sultana. Sultana responds calling it a "sexist boys club."

Sky News says police are "overwhelmed by the numbers". Met coped perfectly well with 2x as many at the pro-Gaza rally, 5x as many at the anti-Brexit march, and 15x as many at London Pride.
They're not overwhelmed by the numbers. They're overwhelmed by the ratio of violent thugs in those numbers.
