As the BBC are very keen to point out at the moment, we, the license payers, fund this.
And we're getting mighty sick of it.
Laura Kuenssberg has just managed to host an hour long political programme, without a single mention of one of the main parties being implicated in a Russian bribery scandal

How is that even fucking possible?

We're going to wreck this planet, and hence our civilisation. No ifs or buts. As a species, we are unwilling to take the tough actions that will mitigate the Climate Crisis.
The White House Effect is a distressing look back at how President George H. W. Bush came to abandon his climate ambitions. It is essential viewing and a glimpse at a world that could have been, says Bethan Ackerley
Must-watch documentary shows how Bush Senior failed the climate

Do not ever forget that the problems this country still face are down to 14yrs of neglect from the Tories.
14yrs of lying in your face.
14yrs of law breaking and diverting public funds to rich donors.
14yrs of undermining decency and respect.

Yeah, I don’t believe that, I don’t believe any of the propaganda they put out, they never tell the truth about anything…

I think you sort of disqualify yourself.
And one more thing. Anyone who publicly begs for, and publicly demands, the Nobel Peace Prize should never be given the Nobel Peace Prize.

And by the way Reform members; you bought his girlfriend a very nice pad in Clacton.
Ask him about that the next time you see him.
I wonder if BBC or Sky News will dedicate an hour to this......
It is infuriating that the right can just spin lies, which are reported by MSM and believed by the public. But by the time their lies are exposed the right have already moved on to the next lie for gullible people to swallow.

The USA is a hellhole, to smear immigrants like this on stage in front of the whole country when they had nothing to do with it.

This is disgusting.

Long story short, getting mad at train drivers, who are campaigning for better wages on their WORK, is never considered “the politics of envy” by Right-Wing commentators, unlike when discussing taxing idle wealth.

STAND WITH STRIKERS TODAY AND THEY WILL RETURN THE FAVOUR WHEN IT’S YOUR TURN!

Factually and grammatically incorrect.
The parlous lack of basic educational standards among this shrill cabal is what really stands out for me.
East Enders English in full flow.
People having a pop at train strikes this morning really show how individualism has plagued our country.

All of the right-wing commentators always become illiterate of inflation when it comes to strikes.

First, they always argue “train drivers are already paid well”, ignoring inflation.
