Iโ€™ve never done it before but I put in a complaint to the BBC about disproportionate favoring of Reform. After Kuenssberg giving Yusuf free rein on Sunday, Politics today had two days of Reform, economic policy then Kruger today.
The LibDems, SNP, Greens are minimized or absent.

Hereโ€™s an idea. Why not process all the people that come over on the boats and see who they are and what they can do for the Uk. Put them to work, get them paying taxes, treat them like human beings and stop thinking because they are brown they are bad. Just an ideaโ€ฆโ€ฆ

The Monty Python law: โ€œthis is getting sillyโ€ is a good point at which to consider changing course.

Is the BBC giving too much airtime to Reform UK? With me in the studio to discuss this are Nigel Farage, Richard Tice, Lee Anderson and Sarah Pochin.

The media ain't have flogging the 'Ferry Fiasco' (trade mark Glenn Campbell) regarding the privatized harbour ferry terminal at Ardrossan who never spent a coin on the upgrade required for the new ferries who now dock at Troon. Turning it into a textbook SNPBAD weekend set piece smear.

Bercow was infinitely better than the stooge Lindsay Hoyle.

RT if you agree and to wind Nigel Farage up.

Instead of slashing welfare and disability benefits โ€” forcing more disabled people and children into poverty โ€” the government could introduce a 2% tax on assets over ยฃ10 million.

It would raise ยฃ24 billion โ€” five times the savings from these cuts.

This is austerity 2.0

Billy Connolly might tell a few dirty jokes. But he never once voted to maintain the two-child benefit cap, cut benefits for the disabled, axe winter fuel payments or illegally invaded any country in the Middle East.

115 years ago they promised to abolish the House of Lords, still waiting. Labour, especially in Scotland don't deserve a single vote. Long since lost any concept of being for the workers or Scotland.
