@C4Dispatches @lewis_goodall Organised campaign against Labour by very angry racist billionaires, they own & control the media inc BBC, & so the media will do as they are told. Excellent PM, we are very lucky he's in charge. You're welcome.

About time

@cristo_burton @lawks1 @janwh_54 That’s right. In QT Fiona Bruce always said that the audience in QT reflected the voting in the previous GE. Always full of Tories.

@lawks1 @janwh_54 Can’t remember the BBC giving Labour this amount of coverage when they were leading the polls before the General Election which they won with quite a big majority. I always felt Labour won despite the BBC’s best efforts to ignore them as much as possible.

#BBCNews has justified their constant coverage of Reform UK Ltd by saying they're leading the polls & likely to form the next govt. Shouldn't that also apply to scrutiny of their alleged tax avoidance, money laundering, foreign influence, racism, etc? #politicslive #bbcqt

Why has @Ofcom allowed GB News to become the broadcasting arm of Reform UK? Chris Banatvala literally wrote the rules when he was i/c standards at Ofcom. He's on @mediaconfpod this week with @lionelbarber and me to discuss what's going on prospectmagazine.co.uk/podcasts/media…

@StoryTrading @pennycheck Starting a war is not ‘a small thing’.

@pennycheck Look at the big picture and all that Trump has achieved. This is a marathon not a sprint. Stop nit-picking at small things to try and support your world view. You'll be shocked at how freeing it can be.

Can someone explain to me why we shouldn't be full port shorting futs now down .33% ? Even if you think trump taco's on his ultimatum to Iran it is very unlikely that happens before let's say noon est tmrw hard for me to imagine mkt is much higher from here without clarity on this --- honestly wondering if there's a blind spot here seems to simple.

Clean information and clean elections are as important as clean water. But are the regulators up to the job? The way GB News has quietly been allowed to become Reform TV should alarm us all app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/72784/co…

In 2023, @KemiBadenoch hosted an Iftar at Lancaster House. I was there. Here’s what happened: • Call to prayer ✔️ • Men and women prayed separately ✔️ • She stayed, participated, ate food, and raised no issue ✔️ Fast forward to now and she claims Ramadan events with gender-separated prayer are “wrong” and should never have happened. So what changed? Not the practice. Not the format. Just the politics and her principles. If it was acceptable when she was in government hosting diplomats and business leaders, why is it suddenly “wrong” when it involves ordinary British Muslims? You can’t have it both way

As a priest, who has celebrated Holy Communion twice today and is departing for a Cistercian monastery tomorrow, can I just say that this 'Easter Egg rage' is nonsense. If you care that much, get yourself to church, and then perhaps you will realise that our faith is not based on confectionary or its packaging.

@Merlene66723974 @Rinni_369 @AllBiteNoBark88 No, it’s not. Ridiculous.

@Rinni_369 @AllBiteNoBark88 It is not a vague action. It is an orchestrated event leading to a vilification of all things christian.

#Boycott all brands that have ERASED the Word "Easter" Don't like Jesus Christ? Screw your Profits

@AllBiteNoBark88 Pathetic.

@GordonFielden @kennygfrederick @Jeremy_Hunt I’ll never forget how he cynically cut income tax, in an attempt to get votes, when the country desperately needed the money for welfare and defence. Really nasty.

I do not know how many times this needs to be said, Jeremy, but there is very little appetite for your commentary. You were a central figure in a Conservative government that held power for fourteen years. The damage done to the National Health Service, together with the economic mismanagement, particularly in the final year, has left this country in a deeply vulnerable position when faced with challenges such as these. It would therefore be far more appropriate to reflect on that record than to continue offering commentary that carries little weight. Do the country a favour and keep your observations to yourself.

Rachel Reeves should not rush out an energy bill bail-out that could make the economy even weaker - my article in the Sunday Times thetimes.com/article/0feb99…

@JimCognito2016 @Torikit @RobertJenrick I’m fearful that you and Reform will ever get to power. Fortunately I don’t believe the British people are stupid enough to vote for you.

@RobertJenrick I've seen you come out with some horseshit in your time: Your explanation for why you intervened to save your mate a £40 million tax bill Your explanation for painting on a mural to help desperate children feel safe. But this might top the lot.

I’m fearful for our next few years. On issue after issue - migration, energy, welfare and the war - Polanski and Rayner are running Starmer.

Yeah, @Nigel_Farage wouldn’t want this video to be shared over and over of him lavishing poodle-like praise on Donald Trump. He’s trying to disassociate from him, so every time it’s shared it ruins that.

Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.

Acceptance is growing in Europe for Canada🇨🇦 to join the European Union🇪🇺. Guy Verhofstadt🇧🇪: "There is no reason why EU membership should be off the table [for Canada]." Jean-Noël Barrot🇫🇷: "And maybe Canada at some point." Johann Wadephul🇩🇪: "I am open for Canada."

My Prime Minister didn’t insult her with some tasteless Pearl Harbor joke. Instead he impressed her with his ability to speak Japanese.

If (as Andrew Neil says) GB News has become Reform TV then maybe there’s a case for the @ElectoralCommUK to start taking an interest independent.co.uk/voices/reform-…

🔴The Italian Prime Minister launches a scathing attack on #Trump 🔴You must understand that you are only the president of #America, not #Italy, #France, or #Germany, and you will not have the right to dictate to the sovereignty of these countries. 🔴You are the one who made the Strait of #Hormuz unsafe because of your war with the Iranians, and we will not join you against them. You are obligated before the world to restore it to its previous state of safety for the passage of #oil tankers. 🔴Europe will not bear responsibility for your decisions, whether they are right or wrong, and Italy refuses to be part of this war, from which we will gain nothing but harm.

Just imagine if these rags led with headlines like: • OIL GIANTS BANK RECORD PROFITS WHILE BRITAIN FREEZES • SUPERMARKETS RAMP UP PRICES AS EXECUTIVES POCKET MILLIONS • BILLIONAIRES BUY UP HOMES — FAMILIES PRICED OUT • BOSSES CASH IN WHILE WORKERS SKIP MEALS A girl can dream…
