Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms.
He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth.
Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it.

You may have missed this gem yesterday. From which we learn that:
1. Betting shops are really good for the mental health of isolated people.
2. Most drug-takers are not a problem.
3. Kids put tuppence in slot machines in the hope of getting rich.
4. Farage probably has a gambling industry donor.

Why isn't Scotland allowed to have it's own broadcasting? Why, because then we'd be able to counter all those everything in Scotland is 💩 stories with facts and WM controlled BBC cannot allow that for fear we'd leave the UK and take our hugely valuable resources with us.

Not forgetting the BBC’s almost allergic reaction to Scottish Independence and the outsider status of Scotland, Wales, Ireland, English Regions of the North. BBC generally good, BBC News/BBC News Scotland are propaganda for the dominant discourse and long term institutional elites.

Westminster-controlled “Scottish” parties would rather defend their leaders failures at Westminster than recognise the success of Scotland’s policies.
They’ll defend Westminsters failures and attack Scotland’s achievements.
