Trump's White House & fawning hacks here don't really care about the 0.001% that the BBC gets wrong. They care about all the stuff it gets right.

Raise your hand if your brain is sufficiently capable of complex thought to understand why advocating an explicitly Christian volunteer military is not ideal.
Add a dose of propaganda to your morning coffee.. This smells of Russian-like “special operation”

There is no need for a moral panic about the UK's welfare system.
Far from perfect but recent discourse is nuts
Spending is controlled, not spiralling

does seem tremendously unfair that, when the main centre left party breaks, we get centre right hegemony... but when the main centre right party breaks, we get the far right. the sheer asymmetry of it offends me
I think the thing people are grappling with is that the actual variable is "if the mainstream centre-right party has its back broken, then that creates space for the far right to thrive". That can be due to economic malaise but the link is far from inevitable or simple

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election.
70% of these donations went to Republicans.
Now, Trump and the GOP are gutting the FEC — which enforces campaign finance and anti-corruption laws.
See how this works?
