Centrist. London. Pro EU. Rejoiner. Democracy is under threat, not only from the dictators & authoritarians that occupy the planet, but also from within existing democracies. Private power + wealth is being used to overturn & threaten our democracy.
It's a pantomime. "Did you here what she said"?. "Income tax is going up"!. "Oh no she didn't"!, "Oh yes she did"! and so on for days, until the hacks can rant about another rumour.

Agreed. They also pushed Brexit over the line, with their non-stop platforming of him and UKIP.

People of very senior rank should know better, but their egos take over. Leigh-Mallory was known for his and his arrogance. It cost him his life and that of his wife and eight aircrew. The wreckage of the Avro York can still be seen on the mountain crash site, as can the graveyard nearby.

No surprise, as the BBC news/media is still on the right, regardless if the DG and CEO were there, or not. They are on auto-pilot, still pumping out right-wing bias. The exGB News boss, who is now Director of BBC News programmes is still in situ'. Why didn't he resign?.

The BBC moved to the right. After 14 years of Conservative Government, Tory influence has penetrated the news and politics depts of the BBC. Senior bosses are reflective of this. They even agreed to promote the hard right Reform Party, on the news and drama. Bias and a breach of the BBC charter.

The BBC, DG and CEO resign over mistake in editing, yet their pro Reform stance passes through without comment. Straight away, this is BBC bias openly displayed. This is what they should have resigned over.

The game has changed. Now, it is the word of the press baron and media mogul, that control the news media. It's is widespread and sophisticated, compared to generations ago. They can buy a Government they want, though mass media and propaganda. Private power is the road to dictatorship.

It seems some Democrats, don't understand the evil that the Trump administration represents. These aren't the Republicans of 50 years ago. They've gone. We now have a supine GOP, that bows to the will of their Supreme leader & his fanatics. Like the Nazis, if you ignore them they will NOT go away!.

A convicted criminal and a wanted war criminal, criticise the BBC for editorial standards. The gutless Bosses at the BBC should have told them to, 'foxtrot oscar'.

Add in the furore in the media over migrant hotels etc. and then look at what caused it. Brexit and the resultant flood of migrants and massive increase in hotel use by the Tories.

It is private power and wealth, misused that is the real threat. We have seen it used in the US and we can see the result - Trump. Those same private, big money forces are in action in the UK, thru' our news media. FDR summed it all up:-

I think what is happening now in the UK, is similar to what has happened in the US. The same wealthy, right-wing powerful forces are out the oust the Labout Govt and get in a Reform/Tory one, that will govern for their benefit. FDR summed it up in a speech.

With this guy as Director of News, who sets editorial direction, we can see which way the BBC news has gone.

A handful of wealthy individuals managed to force the UK to leave the EU & we see the results. We're seeing, even more powerful, private forces setting about their work to destabilise the Govt & put in place a far-right, Trump style kleptocracy. Democracy is very fragile, when dark forces are about.
