Why this isn’t a happy Veterans Day OPINION: With the military being used to occupy American cities, honoring veterans without acknowledging unlawful deployment stateside is a disservice to the nation, Joseph Holsworth writes.

🧡A veteran speaks out on Trump this Veteran's Day.

"There is not a single man or woman in uniform who signed up to deploy to American cities for this mission. There is no honor in this service. "

"Wantonly deploying our service members to do the bidding of a dictatorial regime...

Yes, but that is self inflicted, and as far as trains are concerned really not much to do with being in or out of the EU.

Thousands on benefits could have energy debt cancelled by Ofgem Regulator Ofgem plans to cut Β£500m from the stack of customer debt - but other billpayers will cover the cost.

The energy bill write off con.

Fuel poverty rising, debt Β£4.4bn. Ofgem says Β£500m could be written off.

It would be added to the bills of other customers. Energy companies made Β£514bn operating profit since 2020.

No cut in their profit. Debt would be rebuilt

Nationalise energy. End profiteering

Fun (or not so fun) fact - the author of the β€œBBC bias” memo is a lobbyist for the American Pharmaceutical Group.

U.S. pharma companies recently threatened to abandon the UK unless the NHS pays more for its medicines.

They also donated millions to Trump’s campaign and inauguration

A group of international economists now estimate the economic cost of leaving the EU at 6–8% of GDP, exceeding earlier forecasts.

Be aware ...
Having used and abused the BBC for the last decade, the fascists now want to destroy it so their media mogul friends can asset strip it to the bone.
If this campaign succeeds, they'll move on to the even bigger prize, which is the NHS.

Sir Robbie Gibb's role in the BBC boardroom - to kill the BBC off.

I’m often critical of the BBC about them platforming Reform and their constant reliance on what they believe is β€˜balance’ BUT the politicising of the Board with people like Gibb needs to be addressed. Get him out.

Ed Davey about traitorous Putin's pet Farage: He is basically teaming up with Trump to criticize the BBC, it's shocking & unpatriotic. It shows he wants Trump's America, with his attacks on free media, coming to the UK.. election interference has come from Farage's friend... Putin.. #ukpolitics

Actual statement from someone who works for a Water Company on Panorama.

"Unless we're pushed to do something the environment is never our priority. Reputation and profit are the most important factors."

The whole lot needs nationalising right now.

See what’s happening. A Trumpist US media company has taken over Channel 5. Another US company is gunning for ITV. Our social media is saturated by Musk’s calls for civil war in the UK. The BBC is the last thing standing, and Trump/Johnson are trying to bring it down

The resignations of Tim Davie and Deborah Turness must be an opportunity for the BBC to turn a new leaf, rebuild trust and resist those like Nigel Farage who want to destroy it

We must stand up for a strong, independent BBC, to stop Trump’s America becoming Farage's Britain.

Just absolutely classic BBC. You've just broadcast the most successful programme of the year, uniting Gen Z kids online and Boomers on broadcast in a return to appointment television. And instead of celebrating, your DG reigns due to a made-up right-wing scandal.
