I generally rate Chris Mason but it would make things easier for all if Robbie Gibb - Brexiter & Theresa Mayβs director of comms at Number 10 - were not still a non-executive director of the BBC. Everything he touches turns to shit. Including, at the moment, a lot of the Beebβs political journalism.

Ed Davey, "I'm afraid Nigel Farage should be apologising for helping cause this problem in the first place"
"Before Brexit we didn't have a small boats problem because we had 27 return agreements with EU countries and we could return people"
-Maybe we should call them Farage's Brexit Boats

It is foolish to say that everyone at the Unite Our Kingdom protest was far right. Some were just racists, others were simply thick twats, many were bored football hooligans and thousands more were gullible fuckwits.

The Fash & The Furious: Tiny Tommy's Festival of Radicalisation, Racism, Flagshagging & Idiocy
YouTube video by Supertanskiii
Tiny Tommyβs idiots were out in force screaming about loving Britain while flogging it to Moscow for a bag of coke.
Like the foreigners, criminals and scum that sold out their country for Putin as guest speakers.
This isnβt pride, itβs radicalisation.

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations
When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

Pecksniff: If news is the first rough draft of history, we will be considered mad
In which Mr Pecksniff lays before his readers for their approval certain observations and speculations reflecting on the political life
"Farage is flogging Reform football shirts to the faithful.
Only there is a 1936 anti-fascist law which prevents them from being worn in public."

When rightwingers make strident calls to 'defund the RNLI', remember that the RNLI doesn't get any state funding. It's supported entirely by voluntary donations.

#Farage ranting with his buddy on #LBC about how he wants the best people in his cabinet, with the requisite skills for the jobs, but not having to be an elected MP.
