For 7 years Meghan was the "heartless daughter”… She stayed silent while our disgusting press gave her endless abuse And probably because she trusted the Met to do its job …and somehow she's still the one getting the blame?!

Fuck off #Farage. You have stated on the record that you wouldn't have accepted a loss in the referendum and would have continued to campaign for the UK to leave. #R4Today

Ali Fortescue to Ellie Chowns on the group Greens4Palestine: "This group obviously has a big influence over your partys direction... do you think they should be kicked out of the party?" Can you imagine a journalist asking, should Labour Friends of Israel be kicked out of Labour? Of course you cant

Farage tying himself in angry knots here ... as he refuses to answer the basic question: Is it racist to call Kemi Badenoch a "Nigerian scammer"?

The Conservatives wouldn't have had an 80-seat majority to "betray Brexit" without Farage's party standing down during that General Election - and it seems getting paid to do it. #r4today

#r4today is interviewing Nigel Farage today on UK betrayal of whatever, by anyone else other than himself. Just STOP #bbcnews giving a platform to the party polling in 3rd place

Replying to @zefrog.eu

The tory-installed clowns at #r4today have long had a love affair with right wing bloviators. I can never forget the endless cosy chats between Humprys and Farage in the lead up to the brexit vote. Sounds like Blue Robbo, Trumpy Webb and their mates are still at it. It's why I stopped tuning in.

As Nick Robinson interviews Farage on #r4today for the umpteenth time, may I remind you that BBC News has instituted a policy of trying to make itself more attractive to Reform voters. True story (see further down this thread for deets).

I Am Incorrigible@imincorrigible.bsky.social

Nick Robinson just asked John Curtice if the BBC giving a platform to Farage & Reform was responsible for their popularity; presumably hoping to hear the polling guru say a resounding "no". Instead, Curtice said, "it's not just that, it's also how he uses it" So the answer's clearly yes. #r4today

I get that the media is slow to catch up with things. I'm in the media, I am slow to catch up with things. But the week Reform's crowd looks like this, the BBC chooses _this week_ to go live to Farage's endless remarks on the budget; makes absolutely no sense

Adam Bienkov@adambienkov.bsky.social

By all accounts this is what most of the recent Reform media events have looked like. Bubble well and truly burst

The BBC needs to provide an explanation for this.

Reform Party UK Exposed@reformexposed.bsky.social

Yeah, this is getting absurd. Zero scrutiny. BBC News broadcasts Reform UK speeches in full without interruptions www.thenational.scot/news/2667178...

You don't need that Starbucks latte. 12,000 baristas have organized. They've spent years fighting for a fair first contract. They're demanding better pay, more hours, safe staffing and basic protections. Support the workers, not the corporation stonewalling them. Boycott Starbucks!

Just heard Farage on the news shrieking about how Burnham has no mandate to seek closer ties to EU. a) He can Fuck off b) show us any tangible benefit Brexit has given us c) Fuck off a bit further 🤨🤣
