Yet again just a negative headline with the actual price rise only mentioned near the end.

I’ve thought this for some time as IMO he seems unable to report just the facts when it comes to the current govt. He’s always looking for a negative. Time for change at the BBC and also Sky News needs a change of personnel too, Sam Coates is the same.

Agree.
Do think we need a change in attitude to flats though. As a flat dweller (not London), there’s still a sense of disapproval from some when they hear you live in a flat, yet ours is modern, spacious, very fuel efficient & conveniently located. Flats in towns & cities abroad seem more accepted

Sam Coates spent more time talking about the cost of the actual enquiry & asking what Starmer is going to do about named Civil Servants, than the actual damning findings re Boris Johnson & his Govt & the probable excess number of deaths. Awful journalism (if you can even call his reporting that).

The 750-page document also has stinging criticism of “toxic and chaotic” culture inside Boris Johnson’s Downing Street – which it said the then PM. actively embraced – in which loudest voices held sway and women were sidelined.

Agree. James O’Brien is the only one I listen too now. Don’t know what’s happened to LBC.
I also preferred it when the newsreader was Theo Usherwood as he seemed balanced in his reporting.

Absolutely ridiculous. What’s the matter with people. I don’t get it.
As you say, people think a party that has never governed is the best! (hopefully they will never get the chance either)

Absolutely spot on analysis & very concerning. 👏👏
