Sky News barely hiding their disappointment that immigration isn't the top issue with voters.
Not to be deterred they crack on with a photo of migrants in a lifeboat with the line 'more migrants have crossed the channel in small boats this year than in the whole of 2024'.

Just the BBC spreading DWP misinformation.
There has been an increase of claimants with no work requirements but also the migration of existing claimants from legacy benefits with NWR to UC.
So the number of claimants with NWR hasn't increased by as much as this scary graph suggests.

This from the latest BBC piece promoting Reform is grim.
There's already restrictions on migrants claiming welfare. Why can't Reeves say that instead of feeding the monster?
It isn't practical to ban those with ILTR from accessing welfare because of the toxic combination of low pay/high rents.

Dan Hodges is so wrong.
1-Numbers don't matter.
2-Musk fixes X to suppress LW voices.
3-May not believe in it but they have aligned themselves to the FR for their own gain.
4-Badenoch and Jenrick are riding the far right train to power. There is no chance of them condemning Robinson.

Charlie Kirk's beliefs were way out of line with the vast majority of British people.
Charlie Kirk was a major player in the culture that led to him being murdered.
His death is already being used to foment more violence.
The coverage is another low for the BBC.

This is misleading reporting by the BBC's Sarah Smith.
The vast majority of people who disagreed with Charlie Kirk are not celebrating his death.

When Farage got his arse handed to him on a plate over his free speech hypocrisy the BBC headlined it as a 'clash on freedom of speech'.
The other one they like to use is 'free speech row'.
Always both siding the liar always benefits the liar.

Farage being grilled by Raskin isn't on the BBC news app home page. Why not?
I searched Farage and this was the result
'Clash on freedom of speech'. Pathetic both siding.

How can the BBC headline writer be so gullible?
Trump did not get tough with Russia.
Trump will never get tough with Russia.
Even Trump's actual words 'I *may* impose sanctions and secondary tariffs' are not getting tough with Russia.
Get a grip!

The BBC repeats the falsehood that the Tories have 'long been' calling for a nationwide Inquiry into grooming gangs.
The Tories only became vocal on this in January when Elon Musk got involved.

These are the top replies on twitter to a BBC News tweet reporting the opening of another 12 NHS mpox vaccination centres.
This is typical of responses to any story relating to vaccines.
The BBC still being on twitter may be doing more harm than good.

This blackbird returned to my garden.
I fed its father meal worms, he brought his chicks for meal worms when they fledged. The two young blackbirds left my garden in the autumn.
This is a photo of one of the chicks after it returned the following spring.
