Ok, that one’s going on the list! Thanks, Lauren

Tinning this from my podcast library.

Anne McElvoy is an ‘acquaintance’ of Ghislaine Maxwell and @samcoatessky.bsky.social is a clickbait ferret.

@therestpolitics.bsky.social and @newsagents.bsky.social are all you need.

@skynewsrss.bsky.social, do better.

Army pauses use of Ajax armoured fighting vehicles after dozens of soldiers fall ill The Ministry of Defence said "around 30 personnel presented noise and vibration symptoms" after tests were carried out following an exercise.

Another absolute nonsense in military procurement. The UK has wasted billions with inadequate defence contractors over the last 20 years.

You deliver the product, at spec, on time. Or you don’t deliver and you don’t get paid.

We need to get tough.

Maybe take the misogynist Piers Morgan off the top of your profile, @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social…

Just a thought.

I had the honor of joining one of my favorite actors, Stellan Skarsgard, to explore what role art plays in a democracy, the state of global politics, and how we can avoid the "doom loop."

Is that in Covent Garden?

My attendance record in the European Parliament was the 4th worst out of 751 MEPs, yet I managed to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation.
Thankfully this is of no interest to the media.

Viola Fletcher, Oldest Survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Dies at 111

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

@supertanskiiii.bsky.social, what were we discussing earlier?

Misogyny is now mainstream and has entered @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social of all bloody things!

Christ, I’m fuming. I have two daughters and I can’t believe this is where we are.

Oh, and when he said he went to YouTube to court the youth, no he didn’t.

Talk TV was moved to YouTube because of poor viewership and because it was losing money hand over fist.

Also, for a guy who walked off GMB because a weatherman called him out over Harry and Megan… WTF???

Sorry. That’s not the same as calling out misogyny. He should have been hauled over the coals for that.

And Megan Markle should be the next DG of the BBC.

Howdya like them apples, Piers?

When my book gets published, you can have us both on and I’ll bury Piers Morgan for you.

Holy shit.

My father would watch @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social religiously.

What I’ve just witnessed would have him turning in his grave.

@laylamoran.bsky.social encouraging Piers Morgan to be the next head of the BBC after referring to “Rachel from accounts unchallenged.

🤢 🤢 🤮 🤮

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social and @vicderbyshire.bsky.social, what the fuck are you doing?

Piers Morgan has just referred to “Rachel from Accounts”, went completely unchallenged. Layla Moran is playing Lib Dem fantasy politics.

No government representative on the sofa. This is a fucking disgrace.

Trouble is, the “not in a hurtful or insulting way” isn’t born out by the facts.

Also, why do it in the first place, Nigel? (Because you want those angry votes, don’t you? You little shitweasel)

Believe Nigel Farage about anything and you need to give your head a wobble ….

Farage has just told the media his historic racism was “banter in a playground”.

No word yet on what he considers his present day racism to be.

#Farage

I agree but I also think it’s the far left and a lot of mainstream journalists too. Maybe the latter don’t ‘hate’ her but their behaviour towards RR is reprehensible and vile.

Live updates: Judge dismisses case against former FBI head James Comey A judge rules the US attorney, who brought the case against Trump's political foe, was improperly appointed.

Well, nobody saw this coming!!!

Oh no, that was something else…

Everyone and their goldfish saw this coming.

Of course it is, Tan.

Did they ever say “Jeremy from Accounts” or “George from Accounts”? Of course not.

But “Rachel from Accounts” has been written on the Sky News website FFS!!

Humble pie will be served dished out of a cannon.

It’s worth reminding ‘journalists’ that Kamikaze Kwarteng had dinner with Hedge Fund Managers the night before his mini-budget!!

The level of vitriol aimed at Rachel Reeves is staggering.

On Wednesday, I suspect that there will be two or three measures announced in the budget which will change things substantially for the better. One of these I have lobbied for and has only been reported once in the FT…

Apart from the fact that half of what’s listed here is wrong, you have a point.

I implore someone, anyone, in the media…

Do your job

And the next time you have Farage on, please ask him directly:

…what were the motivations behind this?

To all the UK journalists asking the Government what’s in Wednesdays. Budget and getting grumpy because they have no answers…

Can I remind you that Kamikaze Kwarteng decided to have dinner with Hedge Fund Managers the evening before the disastrous mini-budget?

Sam “I’m hearing” Coates, this is you

Farage and Gill were both members of the European Parliament when Farage was a paid guest on RT. If there isn’t a police investigation into Farage, there should be.

@samcoatessky.bsky.social :

“Abolishing the two-child benefit cap doesn’t help [economic] growth”.

Sorry, Sam. That’s bollocks. It absolutely helps growth.
