To be fair to Emma Barnett she made the complete arse Mel Stride sound like an even bigger complete arse on #r4today

Please don't criticise poor Beth even though she's a Farage's biggest fangirl who uses her platform to cheerlead and normalise fascism in this country.
Have had a bit of criticism here from those who say me/broadcasters giving Reform too much coverage. Read the article I wrote. The point is, Reform is challenging Tories & becoming the (bigger) vessel compared to other parties w voters disillusioned in politics. How this plays out critical 2 next GE
Reform just 1pp behind Lab, acc to YouGov poll for @SkyNews & pushed Tories into 3rd place

- Lab 26% (35% in GE)
- Reform UK 25% (15%)
- Cons 22% (24%)
- Lib Dem 14% (13%)
- Greens 8% (7%)

Musk's lies and misinformation have travelled across the world and been swallowed hook, line and sinker by the gullible before the truth has even got out of bed and put it's bloody pants on.

It's time Lisa Nandy got off her arse and take seriously the danger that Musk poses to our country.

Why doesn't BBC News just rebrand as ABC News (American Broadcasting Corporation) because the news it's currently churning out is nearly 100% US centric.

It's a good job there's no war in Ukraine, no genocide in Gaza and the UK isn't under a dangerous far-right threat.

Lisa Nandy doing an excellent job of defending Rachel Reeves and the budget on #r4today

She's doing an excellent job as the minister for Culture and Sport but ffs what's she doing about Media? ... especially the BBC with it's sinister agenda to undermine our government.

Just like much of the furore this week, here is an example of a law passed 4 years ago and the Tories did nothing with it. Within months of us being in power we delivered the scheme because we are about actual actions and real outcomes. They talked we walked. www.burytimes.co.uk/news/2484314...

We can no longer ignore the sinister campaign by the BBC to actively undermine our democratically elected government.

After 15 long years we've finally got an Education Secretary that understands the job, that can do the job and actually wants the job.

Bridget Phillipson take a bow ... you're absolutely bloody marvellous👏👏👏

The leader of his Majesty's opposition Kemi Badenoch has just spent #PMQs propangandising and auditioning for Elon fucking Musk.

She doesn't give an absolute shit for the victims.
January 8, 2025 at 12:25 PM
I've always believed that Chris Mason is a little fucking weasel that would say anything to curry favour with his Tory BBC bosses .... and today is no exception.
January 7, 2025 at 10:04 AM
Rather than deranged libellous rants @BBCNews are reporting Musk's unfounded accusations as "scathing criticism" ... which rather implies there's some merit to these unhinged allegations.

The BBC are now actively helping Musk to undermine UK democracy.

Being the world's richest man and being the world's most unhinged and demented prick are not mutually exclusive characteristics.

Fact.

I'm old enough to remember when everyone thought Trump would be the biggest demented dickhead in his upcoming administration.

Elon the Melt is doing a fucking fabulous job of making shit for brains Trump look like a stable genius.

Anyway you can put me down as a Christmas miracle... I'm a 56 year post- menopausal woman who's pregnant with triplets.

I will soon be giving birth to Lindor, Baileys and Maris Piper.

Seasonal greetings and Yuletide felicitations to all.

Those sad fuckers camping out in the dark to see the Royals on their way to church.

When asked why one man said- after their year of health troubles the Royals are now more in tune with the people ..... it'll be that 37 hours Charlie spent on a trolley in A&E.

Merry Xmas and Abolish the Monarchy.
December 25, 2024 at 1:19 PM
My darling husband has just stopped me mid flow in the Xmas cleaning frenzy to announce with great pride that he'd just completed a small task.

Consequently he's now on his way to A&E to remove the gold star and Blue Peter badge from his bloody arse.

If you want a taste of what it's like to watch North Korean TV catch the ridiculous puff piece on the Royals that BBC News are pedalling ... so far this year they've cured cancer, saved the world and worked like dogs.

The only mention of Harry was when they referred to him as the 'party prince'.

The far-right is rising across Europe, but we're seeing early tentative signs that they can be frozen out of power. What's required is an absolute refusal from decent people on the centre-right to work with them inews.co.uk/opinion/nige...

So, Kemi ‘No-Gaffes’ Badenoch tips another bag of Tory rubbish into the House of Lords, degrading the place again with some of the worst, most undeserving wingnuts going.

Toby culture-war-dickhead Young.
Therese sewage-enabler Coffey.

Embarrassingly dismal choices by another dismal Tory leader.

You set a thief to catch a thief .... one dishonest person can guess what another dishonest person might do.

Which makes the upcoming announcement of the 'prince of darkness' Peter Mandelson as the new UK Ambassador to the US absolutely bloody perfect.

Nigel Farage doesn't need to spend a penny on a PR team when he's got the BBC's political editor Chris Mason doing it for free courtesy of our fucking licence fee.
