I just want trans people the world over to be able to live in peace, and I don't think that should be an unreasonable ask or expectation.

Iโ€™m not a great political analyst, but I do feel Labour have made a tactical error by opting to be cunts.

Wouldnโ€™t it be great if someone OTHER than racists got pandered to once in a while? Why do they get all the pandering? Wouldnโ€™t it be nice to live in a society where the โ€œconcernsโ€ of people who ARENโ€™T semi-literate piss-blooded wife-beaters were treated as a priority?

My memory of Pig-gate day is of the sides of my head hurting for having laughed for about nine straight hours as the jokes just kept coming.
I think my favourite was โ€œThe Prosciutto Affairโ€โ€ฆ

itโ€™s a real problem for the bbc that other news outlets have been successfully lying to their audiences for years to the point that the bbc seem โ€œout of touchโ€ to people whoโ€™ve swallowed those lies, and someone at the bbc should resign over this

If a genie gave Democrats three wishes, they'd negotiate down to one, and then wish for something they think Republicans might like.

Dominic Cummings, in an earlier incarnation, ran a secretly-funded 'think tank' dedicated to attacking the Beeb while Robbie Gibb glided effortlessly from GBNews to the BBC & started lecturing staff on impartiality. Imagine (cos you'll have to) how the 'left-wing' equivalent would be reported.

In 'How They Broke Britain', I do a pretty good job of detailing the depth & breadth of Tufton Street/Tory/Murdoch/Mail attempts to scupper the BBC, even as I castigate some presenters for going too easy on precisely the people who seek the Corporation's abolition. But I should have done more. 1/2

The BBCโ€™s Attempts to Appease the 'Right-Wing Coup' Against It Are Now Seeding Its Own Destruction By attempting to appease those forces seeking to destroy them, the BBC has helped trigger a crisis that now threatens its very future, argues Adam Bienkov

When Boris Johnson was Prime Minister one of his senior advisers confided to me that one of the only things in politics his boss actually cared about was โ€œkilling off the BBCโ€.

Five years on, and it is a campaign that appears to be finally coming to fruition.
