'BBC Bias' Memo Was Authored by Lobbyist Tied to Pro-Trump Tech Giants The leaked memo that fuelled Trump’s attack on the BBC was written by a lobbyist at a firm paid by US tech giants tied to the President

Serious bit of reporting on the #bbc β€œcrisis” by @bylinetimes.bsky.social here; it all looks very much like an orchestrated coup, or perhaps just carefully arranged sabotage by people with vested interests in seeing the public service broadcaster destroyed

Hospital consultants gearing up to join resident doctors in striking over pay Exclusive: Move could cause huge disruption and present ministers with major new headache

Will Wes Streeting says that Consultants too are "threats to the future of the NHS"? I expect he thinks everyone is, except for his private healthcare donors. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Exclusive: Violent Maccabi fans were organised fighters 'linked to IDF', UK police found MEE can reveal new intelligence which led to ban on Israeli Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from Aston Villa game this week

Dutch police told their British counterparts that over 200 Maccabi Tel Aviv football fans who wreaked havoc in Amsterdam in November 2024 were "linked to the Israel Defense Forces [IDF]", and that hundreds more were "experienced fighters", "highly organised" and "intent on causing serious violence"

One of Rachel Reeves' minions was on the news saying we all had to "do our bit" and pay more in taxes

No minion, we don't. We've been "doing our bit" for the past 18 years via austerity and yet the rich have been getting richer whilst we get poorer

Tax wealth, NOT work

Nigel Farage Says Minimum Wage Should Be Cut for Young People The Reform leader said cutting the minimum wage for young people would boost business, as he attacked plans to raise taxes on the wealthy

Nigel Farage, who has so far registered a total of Β£280,500 for four hours a month as a "brand ambassador" for a company selling gold bars, thinks a Β£10 an hour minimum wage for young people is too high bylinetimes.com/2025/11/03/n...

Private rent in Britain now swallows 44% of the average wage Monthly cost jumps to record Β£1,385 outside London, and Β£2,736 in the capital, with hotspots showing hefty rises

Private rent in UK now swallows 44% of the average wage.

Monthly cost jumps to record Β£1,385 outside London, Β£2,736 in the capital.

Lack of social and affordable housing, no rent controls, as govts appease corporations and the rich.

Profiteering creating poverty/despair, stifling economic growth.

Revealed: Over 50 Britons fought for Israel amid Gaza genocide Dozens of British nationals could be subject to war crimes investigations after serving in the IDF during its war on Gaza.

Over 50 Britons have joined the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) during the Gaza genocide, Declassified can reveal.

"UK citizens who join the Israeli military while it commits genocide are potential perpetrators of war crimes", lawyer Paul Heron said.

Corbyn demands Lisa Nandy retract 'misleading' Maccabi Tel Aviv smears against MPs Police intelligence explaining their reasoning for their ban on Israeli club's fans contradicts statements by government ministers

I have written to Lisa Nandy, following her grossly misleading comments over the Maccabi Tel Aviv ban.

This is about a group of fans with a history of racism and violence. It is not about banning Jewish people - and any attempt to conflate the two is shameful.

I've got lots of things to say about Jeremy Clarkson.

Really not worth it. He knows his game is over and so is resorting to personal attacks.

Weirdo bloke Polanski of the green party has had yet another ridiculous idea

"weirdo” β€œridiculous” - these are the playground taunts when you have no political arguments left to make.

And just like playground bullies, they come from a place of fear. Because they can see us organising and they don’t know how to respond.

The wealth of the richest 1% is expect to grow another Β£600bn in the next 5 years.

That is the same as 30m people claiming Universal Credit.

But there aren't 30m people claiming Universal Credit.

Can you understand?

Leaving the ECHR would allow the State Pension, the Minimum Wage, Sick Pay, Maternity Pay, Paid Holiday and working hour limits to all be abolished.

They would make hundreds of billions from this.

That is what they want.

The bad news: the company has less than Β£1m and is about to go into administration.
This will cost Mone fuck all and she still has a peerage.

This means that it is now Labour’s official position that Israel is committing genocide.

While at the same time, the Labour government continues to arm that genocide

Absolutely extraordinary!

"What the 𝘧𝘢𝘀𝘬 is Farage doing?"

That's easy to answer – he's copying Donald Trump by claiming migrants in the UK are stealing and eating swans from UK parks.

It's a lie, but that won't stop some people believing every word he says

It’s always interesting to see people with Hispanic, Italian, German, Irish last names lashing out at immigrants when grandpa came for the same reason (opportunities) and there was no immigration process. People just came. By ship, later by plane.

Well done to all those who have tirelessly campaigned for the recognition of Palestine β€” an inalienable right of the Palestinian people.

Next, the UK should recognise the genocide in Gaza, end its complicity in crimes against humanity, and stop arming Israel.
