I agree with this, but I think if the BBC were better led, it would make fewer culpable errors and it would both directly and indirectly be better placed to fight the real and concerted campaign against it.

An ex-Intel CEO’s mission to build a Christian AI: ‘hasten the coming of Christ’s return’ Patrick Gelsinger, executive chairman of Gloo, has made it his mission to advance Christian principles in Silicon Valley

At a fundamental level, we have to accept much of silicon valley has gone insane.

Is there a crowdfunding campaign we can donate to?

Mystery why this calamitous show, that literally nobody you know has ever watched, and its Woody Woodpecker host haven’t been carted off to the glue factory ages ago.

This is a very thorough and fair demolition of Zarah Sultana’s poor understanding or sympathy for a country currently resisting genocidal invasion.

We take no joy criticising a young left-wing UK political figure who has often spoken up for workers' rights and progressive causes. But these barely coherent comments from Zarah Sultana on Ukraine sum up much of what is wrong with her wing of the left www.instagram.com/reel/DQT62ys...

Another border control PR piece by the Times’ immigration enforcement stenographer. Not one mention of well-documented and longstanding violence by Bulgarian authorities against asylum seekers.

The home of the O'Donovan family is being used as a polling station in Coolmoyne, Co Tipperary. Around 250 people are eligible to vote at the house and after they cast their ballot, they will be treated to a cup of tea, a slice of apple or rhubarb tart, or a scone | More: rte.ie/b/1540324

The Home Secretary is very cross! And she wants Sun readers to know about it!

Westminster hacks who neither know nor care about geopolitics should not cover international summits.

“This summit wasn’t about migration, and there’s many pressing issues in the Balkans, but here’s a pointless analysis about small boats nonetheless.”

Wonder how long it will take the thugs in the street to adopt this weasel term.

“Cultural coherence”

Labour takes 24 hours to respond to neo-BNP proposals from the Tories and then issues a statement so bland and garbled that the reader is left wondering whether they oppose them or not.

Great piece. Meaningful writing.

US has seized survivors after strike on suspected drug-carrying vessel in Caribbean, AP sources say The U.S. has seized survivors after a strike on a suspected drug-carrying vessel in the Caribbean, the first since President Donald Trump began launching deadly attacks in the region this summer.

WHOA. The AP reports that in the latest strike on a boat alleged to be carrying drug smugglers (which has never been proven), there were actually survivors, and they've been rescued.

The Pentagon has yet to formally acknowledge they have survivors in custody.

Connolly's excuses for going on regime junkets are the height of arrogance and privilege, saying they “empowered me, enabled me & made me stronger as a voice for peace.” Unclear how she advanced the cause of peace by mingling with perpetrators of war crimes.

Being a useful idiot for the Assad regime should rule out being a candidate for Ireland’s President.

Can 100% see him actually doing this though.

But of course that would not elicit flashy macho headlines, so instead we'll send our boys in blue to Vojvodina with some night vision goggles.

Smuggling networks thrive with the connivance of compromised border officers. If the UK was remotely serious about this issue they would ramp up investment in civil society and independent media that can tackle and expose corruption.

Welcome to the UK. Your professional qualifications mean nothing. Recite the Wife of Bath's Tale or get out.

After Libyan gunfire, 140 people disembark in Pozzallo: one person is critically injured, two others seriously wounded

It receives little media attention these days but the Libyan militiamen that the EU funds and trains are shooting migrants indiscriminately. One man arrived in Italy yesterday with a bullet in his head. mediterranearescue.org/en/news/dopo...

Let’s check in on the warzone in Portland.

They should reply that they do the fucking news.

Old tosser executives throwing their junior underlings under the bus.

Ninety thousand pounds a year to post gifs of planes taking off and send ‘go home’ texts to international students. Nice work if you can get it!
