Well that sums up Gibb’s unsuitability for the job perfectly. And Mason’s

Robbie Gibb describes the BBC's Political Editor Chris Mason as the "unsung hero of covering politics" and "absolutely first rate"

Robbie Gibb had "no editorial role" at the Jewish Chronicle in the same way as Rupert Murdoch had no editorial role at the media outlets he used to exert political influence for many years.

Gibb also had no editorial role at the BBC but still used his position to bully & browbeat BBC journalists.

Gibb said he never interfered editorially in the Jewish Chronicle

Hmm - seems like accuracy is not one of his strong points

And isn’t there some kind of sanction for misleading parliament?

Just missed the murderous new attack on Kyiv, but happy to report the city keeps its spirit of dignity - grief sometimes but also joy - in defiance of Putin’s miserable brutalities

Harpin also records that Gibb interviewed him for deputy editor’s job. Gibb offered the job to Jake Wallis Simons instead leeharpin.substack.com/p/leaving-the-…

Gibb; “ I had no editorial role whatsoever at the Jewish Chronicle”. Lee Harpin, reporter at the paper; “RG made a habit of calling into the office on print days to check up on what stories were topping the news list, and offering a view’”

“Farage has already changed the UK (for the worse) more than any other living politician”

(Martin Wolf, Financial Times)

“The Kremlin’s greatest strategic victory of the last decade wasn’t a tidal wave of drones hitting Ukraine, or a tank column in Donbas.

It’s their power to hack social media” 🎯 ⁦‪@TheRickWilson‬⁩

Every day now, it becomes apparent that Gibb was shovelled into the BBC by Johnson to hasten its destruction from within.
Gibb has switched his allegiance from the failed Tories to Farage and his Reform "company" with ease. Are Labour and Lisa Nandy simply blind to what is unfolding?

Best gift ever.

The problems of democracy over the last decade have largely been created by mainstream media platforming RW arseholes & promoting their hate filled misinformation.

A bit of honest, proper journalism is the vaccine democracy needs!

If he had any respect for the BBC charter then he would go the fact is he has no respect for the institution where he is employed. He is a disgrace and no doubt planted into the role with the sole intention of destroying it.

Sir Robbie Gibb says he has ‘no intention of resigning’

Then the the public who pay the BBC honcho responsible for ‘impartiality’, having been an early founder of GB News, owner of the Jewish Chronicle when its standards evaporated, should make sure he’s sacked. What a rip off

We all know someone stuck in a monopoly-media bubble.

Because most of our media is very much part of the problem, I cannot recommend @bylinetimes.bsky.social enough, if you want to know what’s going on. Latest edition is particularly essential reading on the BBC & the far right scapegoating agenda.

This post from Peter Jukes sums up the importance, level and scale of everything.

Gill is the first significant locking up for collusion with Russia of many who have for years assisted the Kremlin and Putin infiltrate and severely damage not just UK politics, but media, finance, public society…

Ukraine won’t be defeated. Ukrainian culture, Ukrainian identity, Ukrainian dignity have only increased since I last visited Kyiv just after the Euromaidan 11 years ago.

The Poles were subjugated for 200 years, and yet military might and the betrayal of allies, could not crush them either

Travis Bickle "wasn't so much a warning to us as a role model"
@peterjukes.bsky.social

This was an interesting admission. A hint at male teenager's vulnerability to a dark side.

An insight into how the far right attract so many young men?

For me it was also the revolutionary left. See the Hemingway reference

You’re making me blush

It should be acknowledged:

The British UK media - BIG press - have been nowhere on this throughout. Small independent new providers pushed all the way for years:
