I'm sharing this here, as I have on Facebook and Instagram, but there's no account on here to share from, and I just think this is wonderful.

A really good balance of design and implementation, and appears to achieve everything it set out to do, and it *SO* appeals to my inner 'work nerd'.

A new mural has appeared in Ternopil, dedicated to children killed in Russia’s attack.

The artwork, showing a child shielding her toys from a Russian missile, was created by artist Andriy Yermolenko. He described it as “a cry for help to the global community.”

Farage said pretty much the same thing as the member of Reform Limited got bribed to say, lots of people are wondering why one person was paid to do it whilst Farage did it for nothing.

BBC has a case against Trump. WhiteHouse Chief Press Officer called the BBC ‘100% fake news.’ Which is defamatory and untrue.

I’m not saying I won’t moan about it when the time comes to pay, but I think the Govt should raise my income tax because I am profoundly worried about the state of public services.

Appointing Robbie Gibb was interfering in running the BBC. Leaving him in place condones it.

The disturbing escalation of the assault on the BBC should be alarming to anyone who cares about truth, accountability and democracy.
Influential board member, Robbie Gibb, former GBNews adviser, Brexit endorser and previous owner of the Jewish Chronicle, is orchestrating this assault from within.

Proof, if it was ever needed, that Robert Gibb is a snivelling, MAGA worshipping, right wing lobbyist suffering from the same affliction as Truss, Johnson et al, namely they have been promoted far in excess of their real world abilities.
Gibb is both tainted and damaged goods, and needs to go..

Boris Johnson says the idea that criticism of the BBC is being organised by the right is ‘complete and utter bollocks’, which makes me think there might be something in it.

Why can't the BBC just be more impartial towards President Trump, like GB News, says Nigel Farage.

🎯 Davey is spot on. "We can have criticism of the BBC, but within that, we need to recognise how valuable an institution it is [and how] precious to our country. And that's one of the reasons why people like President Trump and Nigel Farage, want to undermine the BBC." 👏🏽~AA

Panorama made a stupid editing mistake. But compare this to the deliberate and systemic attempt, sustained across years, to ensure that BBC output aligns ever more closely to the demands of economic power. Against your straw of bias, I raise you a haystack.

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …
