As I understand it, the BBC says it bases its Question Time line-up on the results of the last election.

So how come there was a Deform Ltd person on the panel in St Andrews, Fife, last night when they have no MSPs?

The Greens have 7 and the Lib Dems 5. Neither were represented.

Nuclear weapons are a waste of money, they only benefit the profit takers and their use would see the end of humanity.

There is no defence, they are a fallacy of military doctrine, so creating more, buying more just invites more war pigs to the trough.

#BBCRadio4 news at 6 pm, headline news is Reform and ex chair being put in charge of some DOGE lite programme.

#ChrisMason then credits Farage, without any irony, of being able to turn a crisis into a headline.
