Interesting to see so many great British patriots right now begging an American president to bankrupt one of Britain’s last remaining truly national institutions.

If you're cheering Trump on then you have no right to call yourself a patriot.

You absolute moron.

Ah the 1970s.

Stagflation, three day weeks, collapsing infrastructure. Civil War in Northern Ireland. In yer face racism and bigotry everywhere. Bin strikes. Strikes in general. Blackouts. Industrial decline. Wage inequality. Dog crap everywhere. And households spent 25% of their income on food.

Reform Ltd on BBC Question Time again tonight.

Tell me again how the BBC isn’t the marketing arm of Farage’s party?

Two stories you may not have seen this week that would be a big deal in a normal country:

1) The β€˜dossier’ detailing the BBC’s editing of the Trump speech literally edited Trump’s speech.

2) The NBER calculated that Brexit’s longer term damage to GDP was greater than originally forecast.

JUST FANCY THAT!
3 Oct 2025: Nigel Farage updates his register of financial interests. Since becoming MP for Clacton in July last year he has earned Β£1.2m from his second jobs, more than any other MP.
30 Oct 2025: The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government's index of multiple deprivation reveals that Jaywick, in Farage's Clacton constituency, is the most deprived area in England. Farage says it is
"obviously sad that things aren't improving more quickly" but that having him as their
MP has "definitely helped".

Meanwhile… the grifting liar and Brexiter in chief, Farage… rakes it in from jobs *other than* being a constituency MP… and his constituency rots. Made poorer and angrier by his Brexit.

When they say everything is broken, this is what they mean.

I despair of Labour. Can we not just have a sensible budget, delivered on the day, that apologises for hard choices and then just gets on with giving us something that will give us some hope? All this briefing and speculation makes them look like clowns.

We keep being told that the
perpetrators of the Huntingdon
abomination are "British-born". OK.
So were the killers at Woolwich
barracks, Southport, Tavistock Square,
Westminster Bridge, Manchester
arena, London Bridge etc etc.
If you insist on denying that this has
anything to do with immigration policy,
I'm afraid you are not arguing in good
faith.

Tim Davie ex BBC Director General is a woke, liberal chai latte drinking socialist who promotes subversive politics. He deserves his sacking!

What?
He’s a Tory?😳

He was ex chair of Hammersmith & Fulham Conservative Party?
Reinstate him NOW!
The BBC needs people of his calbre!

Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms.

He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

All the BBC has to do is say fine, fuck off and come over here and make a spectacle of yourself so we can replay Jan 6th and see that edit was actually a reflection of what happened.

They shouldn't have done it, but such is the lack of journalistic ethics in the BBCβ€”becoming ever more biased.

"This week the woke right took to saying that people who are black aren't properly British" complains Danny Finkelstein.

No, Danny, Douglas Murray, who you patronised, promoted and admired, has been saying *exactly this* for over a decade.

Nigel Farage said their flagship council in Kent would be a "shop window" for how they would run the country.

Just months after taking over they're now set to slash multiple council committees as they struggle to fill posts after sacking nine of their own councillors
