The BBC belongs to Britain, not Trump, Farage or their cheerleaders at GB News.
Keir Starmer needs to stand up to Trump and defend our BBC, to keep it strong and truly independent.

The government needs to step up to protect the BBC and our country 👇
Trump and his cronies have the BBC in their sights. Leaders can’t stay silent while one of our great institutions is attacked.
We must defend its independence, end political appointments, and remove Robbie Gibb from the Board.

Trumpian politics reaching our own shores, and directly influencing the workings of our national institutions, is a deeply worrying development 👇
I had my disagreements with the BBC under Tim Davie but he was a decent man doing a difficult job.
To see Trump's White House claiming credit for his downfall and attacking the BBC should worry us all.

I hope the BBC will challenge Nigel Farage today over the economic damage caused by the Brexit he championed.
He needs to be held to account for the damage he's done instead of always being given an easy ride.

Nigel Farage being pushed into a dangerous corner by Donald Trump... dangerous for our whole country 😬
Bit of a Reform/Lib Dems row this morning. Nigel Farage asked about Donald Trump's unproven comments on the drug Tylenol and pregnancy on LBC:
"I have no idea ... you know, we were told thalidomide was a very safe drug and it wasn't. Who knows, Nick, I don't know."
