Guardian is an establishment media organisation of the left.It is not new media like Byline or Novara media.
The Guardian will support Polanski & the Greens then drop them like they dropped Corbyn.

This is how you dont go after Farage.
Galvanises his base supporters and converts voters who are not sure about voting Reform but decide the establishment will try anything to stop Reform.
Criticising Farage & Reforms policies would be more productive.

It will be dismissed because Farage was at school and this just looks like the establishment Guardian going after him instead of challenging his policies.

They both know more about their readership or potential readership than they ever have.

This is the Guardian.There is always one group who gains from something & one group who suffers.

I hope that makes you feel better.

The only confession people want to hear from AC is about the regret he has for fabricating the lies about going to war in Iraq.

They could U turn but I dont think there are enough voters that would get behind Labour.The voters that elected Starmer are now splintered across all the parties & would all have to vote for the same party to beat Reform.

Going to be a lot of unhappy people when they see their payslips when the changes take place.A lot of people dont pay attention until that moment.

That is ultimately what will happen because of the lack of promised growth & it could end this Labour government early if the cuts are forced on Labour.Their MPs will not vote for them & then a crisis follows because Labour MPs have to vote for cuts or allow Reform to be elected & implement cuts.

Starmer & Reeves plan to get Farage & Reform elected is going well this week.

A lot of people dont take an interest in politics until the amount on their payslip suddenly goes down.They won't care how government decided to do it.They will just know they will have less money to spend.

Not surprising when Lisa Nandy was saying the same earlier today on Times Radio.

This long lead up to the budget with various leaks creates so much uncertainty for business.We have never had so many customers holding off on decisions.
I cannot see how Starmer is PM after May elections.

Who is that person?Burnham,Khan & DMiliband left the field.

Same policies within the current financial position and you get a similar outcome with a different face on it.

Do you think they could be a bit more radical on rejoining the EU or did the Jo Swinson election burn them to badly?

I suppose the party itself & policies are probably to middle class to ever have a wider appeal.So they might increase their seats and be part of a coalition but never gain power.

It looks like a psychological battle between team mates this year.Piastri was stronger at the start of the year but they both look like different drivers now.

Why do you think Davey & the Libdems are not more popular?
I would have thought at least half the people who voted Lab at the last election would move to the Libdems in polls.

That could be the early downfall of the current government.New tax rises fail to bring in enough revenue & harm the economy.Labour back benchers will not vote for cuts.The bond market rules when borrowing is so high.

If the BBC had been doing that there would not be a problem.There is a serious lack of accountability that cannot be tackled.From Saville,Hugh Edwards etc & now this deliberate manipulation of Trumps speech to make Trump look worse.
Self defeating & will mean the BBC will likely go easier on Reform.

The problem with the BBC is it as mandatory to pay the tv licence & their failed attempts to appeal to everyone are driving away people.
If the BBC was a commercial broadcaster they would be held to account by their customers.

So what is wrong with truthful reporting from ITV,Sky,Times Radio,LBC etc.?

A lengthy article about politicians & their advisers getting involved in positions of power at the BBC.
Like most recent articles and comments about the BBC it demonstrates the BBC is not fit for purpose as a unbiased state broadcaster.Let the BBC become independent& free from political interference

That free model relied on advertising.If you hand out 10,000 copies that is quite a few eyeballs.

I believe NYT,The Times & Telegraph pay walls work and are profitable.Guardian also doing ok via its donation scheme.

Interesting.They are so similar yet I cannot imagine Corbyn himself joining The Green Party.That would be a journey for the Libdems.From Cleggs coalition days to some sort of agreement with the Greens.

When a"natural supporter" of the BBC is being openly critical then that should tell you something.
The BBC is losing viewers & listeners because people want their news with a bias.Byline Times,Novara,X,BSky& TikTok etc.has content that suits people's perspective.BBC just pretends to be unbiased.

I have not seen any lengthy in depth interviews with Polanski.
What are the main differences between Polanski & Corbyn?
My perspective is their ideology is broadly similar.

11.11.2025 12:40 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

That is why Polanski & Green Party will never be taken seriously.They fulfil a function as a party of protest but a world without war & poverty.It is desirable but not in any way realistic.
