Hmm…. A Daily Mail headline so clearly designed to make you furious.

Being shared by salivating Tory MPs who love a good rage farming story!

So, what’s going on here?

🚨Some major errors & misleading claims from experienced presenter Nick Robinson on BBC Radio 4 Today, when discussing British Steel with Treasury Minister James Murray

I hope these are corrected on tomorrow's programme, and Robinson sticks to the facts in future.

Here's what he got wrong... 🧵

Britain’s actual tariffs on US goods ≈ 4%. Trump told us in yesterday’s exec order that “non tariff barriers” are “often an even greater threat” that must to be stopped. “Non-tariff barriers” = regulation to protect food, medicine, climate, health services... You’d think the BBC might… tell us this?

With the weather like it is at the moment we thought we'd design some new unisex T-shirts. So we have a D for Detail magazine in an Ivy League Letterman style and for those of you getting back out on two wheels – a Scooterist tee with a suitably 'chromed-up' typeface.

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

“The world has changed” says Chancellor on #bbclaurak.
Yes it has - so why stick to outdated counterproductive austerity agenda & arbitrary fiscal rules? You can’t cut your way to growth. Taxes on extreme wealth of super rich would be fairer & more effective than more cuts @patmillsuk.bsky.social

As Wes Streeting trumpets the role of the private sector in “saving the NHS”, it’s worth remembering what happened the only time a whole NHS hospital was handed to the private sector to run.

The care failings - gaining the worst CQC rating ever - were *chilling* (& barely reported at the time):

BBC political analysis is reaching a nadir. Superficial, persistently adopting far right framing, utterly without insight. Just properly piss-poor. The fact that someone with a working brain could write this piece without seeking medical attention is astonishing.
Remember that Emily Maitlis was hounded out of the BBC after being hauled over the coals because of accusations of breaching impartiality rules. Yet Justin Webb just carries on and on

Contrary to common beliefs, we find that misinformation isn’t universal or a general condition of our media ecosystem.

Instead, it's specifically associated with radical-right populist parties that spread misinformation as a political strategy. 5/

The problem is less how much media covers reform, more that it covers them on THEIR terms.

It’s about Muslims & boats & boats & boats.

Never ever are they challenged on their desire to scrap the NHS or their economic policy (or lack thereof).
That’s why they benefit from disproportionate coverage.
