@MichaelLCrick Pay the broadcasters sensible sustainable salaries and not the la la land amounts they are currently paid.

This is dreadful news. BBC journalism is one of Britain's greatest achievements and assets.

@bob_combedown What a mare!

No he should resign

@GPristo @bob_combedown @bathnes Their own usually.

@bathnes Oh no you’re not. Apart from protecting your supporters in the privilege LTN’s whose else lives have you improved.

We’ve set a balanced budget for 2026-27. Our budget protects services for children and older people and supports residents’ priorities including road maintenance, keeping streets clean and safe, and improving the local environment. More details in the comments👇

@BathEcho Any update on this accident?

@BathEcho Good job we aren’t levying tourist taxes, high parking fees, clean air zone taxes, rubbish bus services all of which are tourism friendly (not). How much council tax do the bollards cost btw?

City’s heritage said to bring in equivalent of £150 council tax rise bathecho.co.uk/news/politics/…

@landatthebottom Mmm - 25/04242/FUL. Interesting. Original Application cites agent as applicant (sneaky). Website cites a Mr P Roper - 2nd Application was required. Does anyone know a Mr P Roper who might not want application to become public knowledge? #CashForPlanning (never in BANES surely)!

What did the local parish council say? They aren't usually backward in coming forward. Nothing, and made sure the planner knew they didn't just not reply, they actively said nothing. 🤪

What do you reckon the chances are of getting planning permission to demolish and replace it with a modern building with 30% greater floorspace? In the Green Belt, and within the Cotswolds National Landscape Wrong. It is going thru on the nod tomorrow. Just you see.

@landatthebottom What’s the planning reference?

@bob_combedown 🎶 Theres a Guy works down the Council swears he’s honest.. He also swore to us that he’d be true.. There’s a Guy works down the Council swears he’s honest.. But he’s a liar and I’m not sure about the rest of ‘em too 🎶

There is clearly a reason why they have done this …why don’t the Cabinet question why!!!!!!!

@landatthebottom @john_wimperis @BathSpaUni There’sa guy who periodically speaks to the scrutiny committee. Asks some uncomfortable questions, the reports end up in Somerset Confidential. They are trying to get him banned from speaking.

Do you agree with Dr Bellamy? Straight up yes or no?

@sidcot You missed the i out of run there mate.

LibDem Run Bath

@toadmeister Young Brits and rich Brits.

Net immigration is headed to zero this year, but don't be fooled. Inward migration is still eye-wateringly high. The 'net' figure is only going down because so many young Brits are fleeing Starmer's Britain. dailysceptic.org/2026/01/14/as-…

@landatthebottom They’ll be setting up the Thought Police next - given that plenty think it anyway.

The Libdems have never really got over Musk calling Ed Davey a "snivelling cretin", have they?

We should take a moment to apologise to all those men who needlessly sacrificed their lives on the beaches of Normandy and beyond for the traitorous cowardice of the generation which came after. You gave your lives for nothing.

@jomickane Lefties are showing selves up as clueless knobs.

Lenny Henry has BLASTED snowmen saying all the famous snowmen have been WHITE proving a lack of diversity and inclusion in cinema. Lenny said: 'Frosty the snowman, white. Olaf, white. Jack Frost, white. Even the abominable snowman is white. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know what's going on here'. BORE OFF 🙄. Nothing to do with the fact that SNOW IS WHITE 🤣🤣

@landatthebottom @sidcot One rule for them and another for us. I’ve run out of fingers, toes and limbs to count on.

It's Bathnes.

@landatthebottom 50 sheds of sh1t isn’t a local expression for nothing.

"Higher footfall" at the Christmas market - I don't know, I only whizzed through on a couple of occasions. But I was talking to a restaurateur last night and he says "absolutely not". He told me "the Welsh just didn't show up". Like I say, I dunno, but it didn't feel busy to me.

@JackDeBath Ignorance never used to be a defence

Jesus wept, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) would be appalled

“You don't negotiate with someone who marches into another country, devastates it, killing whoever stands in his way. You get him out, you make him pay, and see that he is never in a position to do these things again.” I miss leaders with spines, unlike Keir Starmer.

@LibDems Or BBC could behave themselves for a change.

Back our BBC: libdems.org.uk/bbc

Trump’s $10bn lawsuit against the BBC is a threat to our democracy which would hit every licence fee payer in the pocket. The Prime Minister must stand up for our BBC and call on Trump to drop it.
