BBC Bosses Draw Up Plans to Win Over Reform Voters by Changing News and Drama Output The Director General Tim Davie and other executives discussed altering BBC β€œstory selection” in order to secure the "trust" of supporters of Nigel Farage’s party

The BBC is explicitly, consciously pivoting right to pander to a party with just 5 MPs.
Where's the outrage?
Where's the coverage?!
They are converting our national broadcaster into a mouthpiece for the far right and no one is doing anything about it!

Nigel Farage wants attention for *saying* he’d scrap the 2-child benefit cap. But in the vote against it, did he show up?

No. Zero Reform MPs voted against the cap in July.

Green MPs put it in our costed manifesto, signed the motion, and voted to scrap it. Actions not words.

Trans Rights Are Human Rights.

Trans Rights Are Human Rights.

πŸ’š Trans Rights = Human Rights.

After hearing today's supreme court verdict, we know many of you will be concerned about what this means for your future in our society. Trans people will still be protected under the law, but this ruling is potentially harmful and insidious.

✊ We stand with you.

How many times do we have to say it? *Austerity doesn’t work*. More cuts to public spending is economically illiterate and morally indefensible - people didn’t vote Labour to get more Tory austerity. FFS tax extreme wealth, don’t slash public services @patmillsuk.bsky.social

Labour are going ahead with their vicious welfare cuts that could affect some of the UK’s most severely disabled people.

Not even the Conservatives sank this low.

Two-party politics is dead. Only the Green Party would tax the super-rich properly and protect the most vulnerable.
