I will only post useful things that a) might help people or b) make them soil themselves with laughter.

That is my solemn vow.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten.

Dominic Cummings, in an earlier incarnation, ran a secretly-funded 'think tank' dedicated to attacking the Beeb while Robbie Gibb glided effortlessly from GBNews to the BBC & started lecturing staff on impartiality. Imagine (cos you'll have to) how the 'left-wing' equivalent would be reported.

The sports broadcasting industry should grow a backbone, back Eni and give her work - she knows her stuff and they shouldn't be considering her as anything other than an asset rather than "too tricky to deal with" @shelaghfogarty.bsky.social

Should Gibb be sacked? yes, obviously. He's an abomination of basic journalistic standards. His GB News channel spreads conspiracy theory & disinformation. His Jewish Chronicle newspaper spreads invented stories. He is plainly trying to undermine the BBC so it's as bad as everything else he touches.

Absolutely this.
Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

I've heard it's the fault of the left leaning metropolitan elite as well as Davie not being far right enough

Just absolutely classic BBC. You've just broadcast the most successful programme of the year, uniting Gen Z kids online and Boomers on broadcast in a return to appointment television. And instead of celebrating, your DG reigns due to a made-up right-wing scandal.

I blame the left leaning metropolitan elite says Charles “I immediately demand more plums in my gob” Moore
the right winger who was appointed to lead the BBC in the hope of appeasing right wingers has been driven out by right wingers for not appeasing right wingers enough and the BBC has the chance to do the funniest thing ever

They seem to think that we want to hear what Farage wants to say BEFORE the leader of the third largest party

This is exactly the reason why they are compromised

When I first brought this up about 7 years ago in the wake of Brexit - an elderly gentleman rang into the local radio station I was appearing on and said that "while he respected my opinion" I should be shot.

That was it for me. After a lifetime of poppy wearing, I stopped.
Flags don’t mean what they used to just months ago. I’ve written about how I think the same is happening to the poppy.

One thing I noticed today on that topic: so many people are wearing poppies that look nothing like the various ones the Royal British Legion sells…
First the flag. Now the poppy
A sombre display of remembrance is being weaponised and policed by nationalists
