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.

People who have come to the United Kingdom legally, played by the rules and made it their home do not need to “go home”. This is their home.

I've written to Kemi Badenoch to give her the chance to reject these divisive calls from her frontbencher Katie Lam.

Jeffries: "You've got Leavitt, who's sick, she's out of control. I'm not sure if she's just demented, ignorant, a stone cold liar, or all of the above. But the notion that an official WH spokesperson would say that the D Party consists of 'terrorists, violent criminals & undocumented immigrants'..."

@mrjamesob.bsky.social good morning James. Can you start badgering for the government to leave X as a platform? This company’s owner is actively calling for violence and Gvt change, yet it’s crawling with official accounts. Something has to change it would also be good to see them on blue sky.

History repeats itself,
I can’t believe such a wretched, morbidly obese, drug addicted, deviant, illiterate, sexual predator found the secret sauce to turn half our country into absolute lunatics. Turning a blind eye daily to the most rampant corruption in American history as they genuflect before him.
