I generally rate Chris Mason but it would make things easier for all if Robbie Gibb - Brexiter & Theresa May’s director of comms at Number 10 - were not still a non-executive director of the BBC. Everything he touches turns to shit. Including, at the moment, a lot of the Beeb’s political journalism.
There should be a high bar for politicians attacking the media, but maybe Ed Davey has half a point here?

For example, the first three paragraphs of this BBC story repeat Reform's £243bn figure without saying that the thinktank behind the estimate now disowns it. (This is mentioned in paragraph 35)

Our new policy would make legal aid a guaranteed right, ensure no one is left without help because of where they live or what they earn, and rebuild a justice system that works for everyone.

Wow, this is how to call out Mr. Farage. Ed Davey has been the best of our leaders at this, but this is another level up even. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Scaramucci: "[Trump] is a perfectionist with aesthetics. There was symbolism to the family in the front row, billionaires in the second row, and cabinet in the third row. And there's messages there to corporate America and the global society: 'Take a bended knee to me.'" ~AA

We can't let British democracy turn into a plaything for overseas billionaires with short attention spans.

At PMQs, I urged the Prime Minister to work with us to make sure power always sits with the voters, not wealthy foreign oligarchs.

The LibDems have long campaigned for fair compensation for Waspi women. To refuse to implement the findings of an independent study is incredibly disappointing. I will continue to work with my party to ensure fair compensation @libdems.org.uk

No doubt the very same people signing who were outraged at the so called 'anti democratic revoke article 50 petition' which went over the 6 million mark.
Just catching up on this incredible new form of stupidity. I'm so pleased. It's a delight to watch the right engage in the kind of pointless theatrical bullshit progressives usually get lost in.
