Fun (or not so fun) fact - the author of the “BBC bias” memo is a lobbyist for the American Pharmaceutical Group.
U.S. pharma companies recently threatened to abandon the UK unless the NHS pays more for its medicines.
They also donated millions to Trump’s campaign and inauguration

Emily Maitlis brags about her, Deb Cohen, and Hannah Barnes getting the Tavistock GIDS service shut down.
What she doesn't talk about is how Newsnight journalists manufactured outrage and concocted "scandals" based on unethical journalism - which they were called out for, but tried to hide...

I know literally nothing about Dirty Pair but I know homophobia when I see it.
Even if they're both super hetero (press X to Doubt) you don't get to tell people they're not allowed to have gay headcanons. You don't, in fact, support the queers if that annoys you.

Calm down about the Bond article. It’s empty poop. TL;DR. Unnamed sources cite an unconfirmed creative discussion from unknown people plus one quote from a not unnamed writer in no way connected to the development. Do not honor empty poop with perpetuation.

Right. Here's my big pitch:
Muppet James Bond
James Bond in…A Heart-Felt Goodbye
Dominic Cooper as Bond
Kermit M Frog
Mrs Moneypiggy
Beaker & Dr Bunsen HoneyQ
The agents of G.O.N.Z.O. want to kidnap the world's chickens. MI5 has a mole (Rizzo the Rat). An agent is undercover as a chef in Sweden.

OK hear me out, next James Bond is played by Pierce Brosnan.
Now you've managed to confuse audiences they won't care about how Bond comes back.
The perfect plan, no flaws.

James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Fun trivia: When interracial marriage was legalised in the US in 1967, according to Gallup public approval of it was only 20%. It only passed 50% approval in 1997.
When CA launched Prop 50, it was polling at 38%. And so, we did it anyway. Winning campaigns requires that your GOALS define your actions, recognizing opinion - including who agrees to vote - is malleable. In other words, be a thermostat, not a thermometer.
