The fact that the BBC has made serious culpable errors does not negate the point that there is a real and concerted right-wing media campaign to destroy it. Both points can be true at the same time and the campaign would not end even if the errors did.

While funding to refurbish bedrooms and improve IT systems is welcome, you can't run a hospice with no staff.
As I point out in my speech last week, Labour's choice to tax hospices is having a severe impact.

You wait months for an incoherent speech on the economy, and then two come along in the same morning! My SKETCH of Rachel Reeves vs Kemi Badenoch vs Reality.
Making a mess of a mess | Robert Hutton | The Critic Magazine
To get one incoherent speech on the economy may be regarded as a misfortune. To get two in the same morning… well, it did at least move us towards an explanation of why people have to keep making them.

They are actually dementia screenings. And you are only asked by a doctor to take one if they notice cognitive decline.

Literally all it takes to be considered "brilliant" and a "rising star" on the right of British politics now is just a willingness to say something slightly more racist than all of your competitors
