Very poor performance from BBC Chair Samir Shah today. Time for him to jog on too. Zero leadership, dithering & glacially slow decision making & procrastination. No wonder Robbie Gibb is running rings around him & BBC Board. Let’s end political appointees Lisa Nandy & get rid #SavetheBBC

Very insightful & thank you for sharing. As a mixed race I watched her performance in Parliament last week in absolute horror. She was verging on gleeful in her delivery. I remain in shock that this is where Labour are going on immigration & asylum. It will not end well for them or the migrants

#strictly Fantastic opening group dance with the Strictly Allstars tonight at Blackpool. Danny Mac has still got all the right moves. Fabulous

This is brilliant and exactly what he deserves!

La Voix was missed on #strictly tonight and it’s sad she’s not returning. Am going to miss those Tess jibes

Looks like @zackpolanski.bsky.social is on again this week. Right now his presence is the only reason to watch this or any tv political show

Best dance of the night for me is the Paso from Karen & Carlos. With no previous dance experience she was fearless & quite brilliant #strictly

I must have been watching a different dance. George’s salsa was not worthy of 10’s #strictly

I don’t enjoy the couples choice dances but Alex @ Jojo created an engaging dance tonight. They are all getting a little too personal for me each week. Let’s focus on the dancing #strictly

#strictly Fabulous opening to the show with the iconic Steps. Loved it

A total con-man representing Reform UK set up by white rich right wing men & enabled by a desperate & shameless RW rich brown man

Eloquently put …..

"Quiet Piggy!"

This is so true & well put …

Love this podcast & am looking forward to this new episode that is very timely with what is now happening to what was our party

MY VOICE MY CHOICE Girls are not underage. They are children. Children can't consent to sex. It's rape.

People still seem to be battling with understanding this in 21st century

I see that legislation to stop the sale of wet wipes containing plastic will be coming into force in UK in 18 months to combat ‘fat bergs’. Having lived in France & now Italy since 2020 I am a total convert to the use of the bidet. It is so civilised! We Brits are squeamish but they work & are green

It is quite shocking to hear someone talk about their lived experience like this. Heartbreaking actually. But I strongly believe that the dehumanising immigration rhetoric being used by the Tories, Reform and regrettably Labour gives succour and confidence to racists to talk and behave this way

Yes, she was really low par today. As a full fat left wing Labour MP, I’ve seen her really go for it on previous occasions

Am watching this now & wondering why she had to be the RW representative today? It is so lazy & shortsighted by #bbcNews Rebecca Long-Bailey is on her own as the voice of the Left

Absolutely & there is no real public discourse on this. Universal Basic Income? What’s happening?

Serving behind the counter in the family Newsagents business in 1974 aged 10. I’m a golden oldie now. Then aged 16 a Saturday job in the Hosiery section at the Swan & Edgar department store (now closed) at Piccadilly in London. Fun times

So Trump is now authorising the release of the #epsteinfiles as essentially he knows he will probably lose the vote but we will all believe that this is what he wanted to do all along 😹

I absolutely despise this man along with George Osbourne is partner in crime. They just walked away from the wreckage of austerity & Brexit and have not an iota of shame

This …..

The Westminster @teamlabouruk.bsky.social is on track to ruin the election chances for @scottishlabour.bsky.social next year it would seem. The SNP are turning it round as progressives jump ship

Alex Norris the Labour minister doing the news round today on TV and radio sounds like a total Tory. He is an automaton without an ounce of compassionate nuance in his voice or demeanour. Is this Blue Labour? I hate it

I would add Zia Yusuf from Reform UK to the list. A massive racist enabler & a total darling to their supporters

It was bad luck for Vicki that she had a jive this week. A tough dance for most people of the celebs #strictly

As a former Folkestone resident it was a massive achievement for Tony Vaughan to be elected as a Labour MP there. It has been rock solid Tory for decades. He cannot want to be a one term MP plus he has Filipino heritage. Can he lead a backbencher revolt on this?
