The disturbing escalation of the assault on the BBC should be alarming to anyone who cares about truth, accountability and democracy.
Influential board member, Robbie Gibb, former GBNews adviser, Brexit endorser and previous owner of the Jewish Chronicle, is orchestrating this assault from within.

Remember another Johnson denial:
"reports emerged that the politician was having an extramarital affair with Spectator columnist Petronella Wyatt. Mr Johnson initially dismissed the claims as an “inverted pyramid of piffle”, before more concrete evidence came to light."
He's not a serious person.
All the defences Boris Johnson used for scandals he’s faced during his career
Boris Johnson's twin careers in journalism and politics have seen him fired for making up quotes, sacked for a secret affair and investigated over the lavish refurbishment of his Downing Street flat

It is wild to me how much people love fake conspiracy theories but seem to completely ignore the harms of hierarchy, capitalism, and the structure of violence we call the state. War is what brought us borders, and it will be war and threats of war that keep borders.

BREAKING 🚨: Over 68,000 people are being driven from their homes every single day by floods, drought, and heat they didn’t cause.

Entire communities erased while world leaders debate our lives.

This isn’t a crisis, it’s violence, and it's happening right now.

No criticism of Trump will ever be acceptable to Trump. This is about intimidation and censorship. The man is a traitor, a fraudster, a fascist, a racist, a rapist, a pedophile and an imbecile. But he'll sue any media who says it. Don't settle. Let it go to court.

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.
