If the Prescott memo is true, and there is a secret cabal of LGBTQ+ journalists stopping any negative stories about trans people being published or aired at BBC News, then, I have to say, they’re doing a really fucking shit job of that.

The line-up for the Brighton show is that good I’m considering heading down despite seeing it in London 2 days after.

Brighton & adjacent people sort yourselves out!
Big shifts in the ticket sales rankings! First Place Manchester, Second Place London, Third Place Edinburgh, and joint Fourth Bristol and Brighton. Bristol and Brighton, pull yourselves together.

Maybe a Director Specific would be more focused?

They've tried everything else, so I think it's time the BBC went for a Director General who's good at it.

Seems the bbc will do absolutely anything for celebrity traitors.

To be eligible to be the Director General of the BBC, you have to have been born on one of its programmes.

The sheer greasy desperation from these bastards that any violent crime is committed by an immigrant so they can continue their grift. Even when they know it isn't true. Foul.
Matt Goodwin attributes a crime that he now knows appears to have been committed by people born in Britain in the early 1990s to "mass uncontrolled immigration"

Ahem. Erm... if you enjoy this joke, why not come and see me make basically the same one but while pretending to be Geoffrey Chaucer this Christmas? 😬 linktr.ee/jlukeroberts
