Massive attack on BBC from forces that want it shut down. BBC makes mistakes but on whole is honourable. I think of outstanding reporters like Lyse Ducette, Steve Rosenberg, Jeremy Bowen, Orla Gurling and many others. It's OUR BBC and we can criticise but current USA administrators need to butt out.

I'd call the BBC a pro-Trump organisation.
The slightest thing he says tends to be in the headlines, they've hardly ever looked at his criminal charges and anti-constitutional operations, and they've never considered his mental capacity.

The hundreds of prisoners mistakenly released under the Conservatives didn't even merit coverage by BBC News and Chris Mason. However now that Labour is in government single accidental releases are met by bizarre over-the-top outrage. #Newsnight #r4today #wato #bbcpm

Part of this is accepting that some people have conditions that can only deteriorate, and that they mustn’t be forced into work to prove that. We mostly know what these conditions are. If they want people with MECFS and long Covid to work, fund the research.

#ZohranMamdani is NOT a “radical”, he campaigned on affordable housing, transport, childcare and easing the cost of living. Hardly radical - those are centrist policies in Europe. The BBC is lazily repeating MAGA attack lines instead of actually examining what he’s pledged to do. #r4today #NYC

For 61 years the #BBCWorldService has been broadcasting the latest in science via its weekly Science in Action programme. That dies in the next half hour, with this final edition, reflecting on the fall in trust in expertise driven by malign interests over recent years.

Yesterday the Scottish Government announced a further delay to the implementation of muirburn licencing.
That very same day, a muirburn in Aberdeenshire got out of control and started a wildfire.
We can’t afford any more delay. 👇

If blowing people out of the water without due process and renaming the Department of Defense to the Department of War gets someone the Nobel Peace Prize that would be another institution that would have trashed its reputation. #r4today

All we ever hear about or read about is migration, racism, antisemitism and Islamophobia. Hardly anything else gets a look in.
Well I’m sick to bloody death of it. It’s like some self fulfilling Farage wet dream.
Britain and its people are about so much more than this.

The political right in the US have been radicalised so much that Fox News hosts calling for the execution of homeless people or the bombing/gassing of those at the UN get to keep their jobs. This is partly because the rest of the media have normalised such behaviour. #Americast #r4today
