Yes I’ve seen that and in Lancaster…. It’s almost like it’s easy to criticise others yet when they get any form of power they are utterly useless and have to resign or are removed (yet still leading the polls hence my point)

I never ruled out prostitution as I leaned very early after my move to Bluesky kink shaming will not be tolerated here……. And whatever floats your boat

It does seem strange that after a change in government they didn’t replace all the people who were put onto the BBC board to promote Tory policy and now there’s talk that the same people are trying to make the BBC more pro Reform party

This time unlike all the previous times the BBC should just stop inviting him on and then when he screams it’s unfair he doesn’t get free airtime just publicly say “we didn’t invite you as you said you won’t come, publicly end your boycott of us and we may look at inviting you on shows again”

Lib Dem Leader @eddavey.libdems.org.uk:
"A great British institution is under attack from a foreign government. President Trump is trying to destroy our BBC... Trump has undermined press freedom in America. Now he's trying to do the same here, disgracefully egged on by the leader of Reform."

Sorry to hear things have got that bad…. You must be in a really bad place to do that job for food…… is prostitution or shoplifting not an option?
For the benefit of Bluesky it a joke as nobody of sound mind would want that job

This is certainly true but it’s also what reform voters say when they pay no attention to anything the party plans to do or have zero knowledge of any of the party’s scandals and failures

As soon as I saw the reports of Reform pulling out of a BBC programme first I thought this has nothing to do with standards at the BBC. Then I saw it was a documentary and was surprised they agreed to it in the first place and will now use any excuse to pull out as reality makes them look bad

Yep it’s crazy if the government are reconsidering it just to please a small amount of the population who won’t be please or probably vote for them. It was well publicised and with lots of notice and it’s all about the jump from 60 to 65 when most people now will have to wait until at least 67!

Trump's White House & fawning hacks here don't really care about the 0.001% that the BBC gets wrong. They care about all the stuff it gets right.

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

Look at the many many lawsuits that he has threatened that have come to nothing and the many he has lost in court because the man has no grasp of reality

Trump is in the main Hated in Britain for lots of valid reasons and somehow this Trump shill/wantabe is leading the Polls with his dodgy party, everyone should be reminded just how far up Trump arse Farage is

Will always defend it and be happy to play my license fee for TMS and BBC sounds alone. Plus after watching US news channels with their bias how anyone one from there has the balls to go after the BBC for bias is baffling.

Just play his whole speech followed by the rioting afterwards when they stormed the capital. Followed by what they said about Trump in court and the fact after their conviction Trump pardoned them!

I worked with a bloke who was in 2 Para when Charles did P company he had a lot of respect for him (not for Edward who was also there but putting little effort in) but with the medals at that time many people who did 22 years might only have 1-2 medals. Royals uniforms are very ceremonial

So to add to this nonsense I’ve just been on Facebook and there’s now some veterans groups getting angry at Lammy for wearing a veterans poppy and calling him a Walt! This is mainly for political & racist reasons without even mentioning it was passed to him to try and stop outrage

It would be funny though if he replied that he would appear in Congress after they’ve released the full Epstein files with every name and detail with nothing redacted

It’s just such a pointless headline. I mean I have zero time for Andrew nor am I defending him but any non US citizen who doesn’t live or do business in the US is just going to ignore any call to go before Congress

I think there must be lobbying to stop the private sale of fireworks due to the about of money made otherwise they would have been banned years ago when veterans with PTSD joined groups calling for the ban. If pets & veterans can’t get them banned in this country I can’t see it happening

Well it’s one of those things where you have to guess if Trump is billing the US millions for work that costs nowhere near that in clear corruption or if contractors always fleece him supplying cheap Gordy tat?
My guess would be both
