A woman who lives in Dubai & never actually watches the BBC tells us who should be its next Director General.😳
She then tells us who should be chief of an NHS she never uses. Not only that, she comments about Govt. departments that don’t actually govern her!
SmallTalk TV! 😂

Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms.
He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

You may have missed this gem yesterday. From which we learn that:
1. Betting shops are really good for the mental health of isolated people.
2. Most drug-takers are not a problem.
3. Kids put tuppence in slot machines in the hope of getting rich.
4. Farage probably has a gambling industry donor.

As I’ve seen this confused a few times, please note that Robin Gibb was a much-beloved member of the Bee Gees, whilst Robbie Gibb is the BBC board member who also, totally coincidentally, was editorial adviser in the set-up of GB News.
I know, Bee Gees, GBeebies, a bit confusing…

It takes an obscene amount of hubris to lecture the BBC when you have The Telegraph’s record on truth-telling.

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?

Sky News just had Kelvin Mackenzie on, former editor of The Sun, one of the people at the centre of probably the most disgraceful front page in newspaper history, complaining about BBC journalists not being objective and 'fake news'. Astonishing. ~AA

It's looking more and more like it was Klopps team that won the league last season. How the owners allowed this fraud to spend that amount of dosh on that shite is bewildering. Great to see it though!!!

Love this photo of two of our greatest PMs at the Cenotaph today.
Boris looks trim, fit and very much in good health.
Liz Truss looks as though she’s had a lot of pork recently and might be trickling down for the nation again.
God bless them both!

Another very pertinent fact that I have not seen mentioned ANYWHERE: In 14 years of Tory rule we had 14 Prisons Ministers - six in a single year, at one point - and a total of 11 Justice Secretaries, including Grayling, Raab, and Truss. In 13 years of Labour it was three: Irvine, Falconer, Straw. 🤔

The refs and VAR just basically make a rule up to deny Everton a goal nowadays don't they. I reckon this is because we dared to challenge Masters over the points deductions. And yes. I do believe the Premier league is corrupt as fuck.

Yet another game where Everton end up with more bookings than the opposition despite Grealish and Ndiaye getting wellied every time they touched the ball. Fucking joke.

Gana Guaye was exceptionally brilliant today. Dewsbury Hall was miles better than his last few games. Myko upped his performance level and fair play to Barry. Put a great shift in. Defence was boss all round. UTFT.

21 out of 33 Conservative shadow ministers in the Lords have paid jobs outside Parliament.
Shadow ministers paid to ‘advise’ the same industries they’re meant to scrutinise. Conflict of interest institutionalized. Paymasters served.
Can't get good society without ending political bribery.
