Global opinion on Trump is polarized and largely negative. Per Pew's June 2025 survey of 24 nations, a median 34% express confidence in his leadership, with 62% lacking it—lowest in Europe and allies, where he's seen as arrogant and dangerous.

Trump would hate if you liked & reposted this 🤣

Perhaps she’s just thinking of a belated Gap Yah. A 1 or 2 year work visa? Although obviously she’ll pick up a stunningly fit and wealthy Australian who’ll be a star character in years to come. #TheArchers

Text of email Two BBC slogans - "Inform, Educate, Entertain" and "The fight for truth is on" https://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/2024/bbc-news-trust-is-earned We've spent a couple of days now discussing the "problem" of "small boats", and claims that immigrants are responsible for a disproportionate number of serious crimes. The government has played along with this narrative - it's all a serious problem - and various BBC programmes have quoted figures from Robert Jenrick, which appear to be taken from a Daily Telegraph story, quoting Nigel Farage, who in turn quotes an organisation called the Centre for Migration Control, which appears to be a one man band - the trading name of Athelney Campaigns Ltd, run by one Robert Bates. I've heard Robert Cuffe of BBC Verify telling us the figures should be treated with caution, but the story doesn't change. Yesterday, Yougov released figures https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/52704-is-there-public-support-for-large-scale-removals-of-migrants which would be no surprise to anyone who's read - or presented - the news over the last few years: - 45% of Britons would support a halt in immigration and deportation of recent arrivals (that's not quite what the Yougov report says, of course, but it's the kind of headline the papers produce from the figures, and the kind of headline you read out at nine minutes past six) - 47% of Britons think there are more migrants staying in the UK illegally than legally, when a comparison of those arriving in small boats (the headline number, arriving in an irregular/illegal way but immediately taking on the legal status of asylum seeker) with those arriving with government-issued visas (for work, to join family members, to escape Ukraine, Afghanistan, Hong Kong...) shows the "illegal" number is around 4% of the total It's not your job to argue for or against immigration or asylum. But you do, calling arrivals over the Channel a "problem" - not because of the exploitation or the deaths; you

Excellent. It was disappointing yesterday to hear Robinson mentioning the long overdue BBC Verify statement whilst simultaneously doing a “No but, Yes but” routine. He and Rajan are well out of line. #R4Today

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Have we heard anything from this man? Is he keeping a very low profile? Has he achieved as much as investigative journalists producing the radio 4 documentary and now the report on
BBC News? Do they talk and share information?

Was a border security guru ever appointed? If so, do they speak to the investigative journalists who have so far exposed at least 2 gangs?

Imagine Ben’s surprise when Lily walks into the hospital he’s working at in Australia. #TheArchers

Still confused about Lily. She’s graduated with a first. I thought she was doing estate management, and yet all we’ve heard suggests hospitality management.

Perhaps it may prompt folk to wonder why the media and some politicians push for these inaccuracies to come about?
