If we are to truly grasp the nettle on the issue of agricultural pollution in the Wye, we need a Water Protection Zone - I pressed the government to meet with me and other local MPs to discuss how we can progress implementation of this.

Suspect some female Tory MPs are quietly dying inside at this. When you’re so desperate to get in a bit of gratuitous foreigner-bashing that you find yourself arguing *against* preventative strategies that try to prevent sexual violence, ffs, what have you become?
Dog-whistle and factually incorrect. Ladies, raise your hand if you were sexually assaulted by a boy at school? I’d wager this or a family member is most women’s first experience of sexual violence

just catching up with this - an amazing example of misleading statistics.

Badenoch tries to blame the government for teacher numbers falling, but the fall was between November 2023 *and November 2024* (it's just that the figures were published in 2025). we don't have 2025 figure.

The reaction to the Panorama edit has been nothing short of hysterical. Yes the BBC has some impartiality problems. But its biggest isn't the one you think.

I don't know what is more depressing. That the BBC seems to have no clue what democratic socialism is or that someone who comments on politics for a living thinks it's the same as communism.

Coal mining shaped the south Wales valleys but it also left a dangerous legacy.

Abandoned coal tips still threaten our communities, as shown by recent landslides.

The UK Government must commit to fully funding remediation work.

No one quite deserves to be made to look such a fool as Matt Goodwin. This is truly heartening.
My goodness Matt Goodwin comes across as an obnoxious hateful one-trick pony. Glad much of the #bbcqt audience saw through his schtick and agree.

This is really poor by BBC researchers and producers. Goodwin hasn't been an active academic for a number of years, yet is described as one (thus legitimating his relentless Reform activism and constant bad faith misrepresentation of evidence). 1/?
Wikipedia says Shaheen is an academic. BBCQT implies you can’t trust what she says b/c she’s an ‘activist’. Someone who Wikipedia calls ‘a former academic’ who now campaigns for Reform & wants to be its first Home Secretary is an ‘academic & author’ who you can trust. Maybe they use Grokipedia now.
