Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

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.

Absolute perfection. #Reform
Our Granddad is 100 and fought in D-day and he thinks Farage is the right man to sort Britain out. He says he reminds him of one of the commanders he fought alongside with distinction. In the next few weeks he's going to auction off his medals and donate all the money to Reform. Anyone know how much an Iron Cross is worth?

There are too many people with She added, "I respect their angry red faces on television."

This is the man the BBC elevated & is refusing to investigate despite @carolecadwalla.bsky.social l & @bylinetimes.bsky.social
having done all the work for them .
Do we have a precedent for a this ? A national broadcaster ignoring possible treason , isn’t that in itself sort of treasonous 🥴 ?

Seems @Nigel_Farage is trying damage limitation on the Reform Russian Bribes scandal.

He’s known Nathan Gill for 20 years, and claims he knew nothing.

No one believes you, Nigel.

Keep the story moving. Questions must be answered.

Photo of page in Private Eye LATEST 'BIG BEAST' DEFECTS TO REFORM by Our BBC Correspondent E.Z. Questions FOLLOWING on from Nadine Dorries, Reform was celebrating another big-name defection to the party after their conference in Birmingham, as rumours swirled that Chris Mason had defected to Reform. "Chris's breathless coverage of our conference could have come straight from our press office," said a jubilant Reform spokesman. "Watching him fanboy Nigel Farage and talk up his prospects to be the next Prime Minister, despite Reform only having four MPs, left us in no doubt that Chris was one of us." Chris Mason, however, played down the prospect of him defecting to Reform, saying, as a senior BBC political correspondent, he must remain totally impartial and in favour of the Conservative party at all times. ---+++--- REFORM MEMBERS ASK: WHY ARE ALL THESE PEOPLE BEING ALLOWED IN? by Our Man In Birmingham Lee Vurr

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before.

Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

Respect to RTD for quickly casting Piper as the new Doctor Who, before the BBC could give it to Farage.
