Fun (or not so fun) fact - the author of the “BBC bias” memo is a lobbyist for the American Pharmaceutical Group.
U.S. pharma companies recently threatened to abandon the UK unless the NHS pays more for its medicines.
They also donated millions to Trump’s campaign and inauguration

I'm not sure if others have noticed this, but interesting that one of the Prescott criticisms of the BBC is based on those of the 'History Reclaimed' group, which is also associated with the 'Restore Trust' group's attacks on & so far unsuccessful attempts to take control of the National Trust. 1/3

No 10 says "no" when asked if PM thinks BBC is institutionally biased or corrupt.
"We support a strong, independent BBC and in an age of disinformation the argument for a robust, impartial UK news service is stronger than ever, but it's important that trust is maintained and errors are corrected."

They said it would be £1.4m.
They lied.
They said Reform DOGE would do all this.

Absolutely horrified when I read this article earlier. Nonetheless, I can believe it having seen the incessant swathes of St George's flags across England from Cornwall to Kent when I traversed the South by car in September & when I chatted to several elderly "friends" & family. Must be stopped!
