A fine and important piece from @arusbridger. But I'd add the context that @Ofcom has been a non-regulating regulator for many years before the advent of @GBNEWS. That's why all British Public Service Broadcasters have been allowed to reduce drastically their PSB content.
alan rusbridger@arusbridger

Since @Ofcom seems to have given up, we asked 20 experienced journalist from a wide range of backgrounds to watch multiple hours of @GBNEWS . Their conclusion: the supposedly regulated channel has, in effect, become Reform TV. How did it happen? thenewworld.co.uk/alan-rusbridge…

@TimTateBooks @TightFive_Rugby It can’t be a coincidence that England looked completely different last summer when Wigglesworth was away with the Lions. There is nothing in the way we play that suggests Blackett has any influence whatsoever.

Yep, Borthwick has to go. He’s really got no clue.

@TightFive_Rugby F. Smith has been very poor; Atkinson anonymous; Freeman as useless as always. But they are all playing to Borthwick's utterly stupid 'game plan'. He simply has to be sacked.

How Fin Smith had played 80 minutes of this game is beyond me. He’s been off it the entire game. And Marcus Smith still comes on at fullback…

Dear God. @EnglandRugby are abysmal. And this dire performance has Borthwick's useless fingerprints all over it. He has to go.

@MadocRoberts 'Snow'/Owens does feature briefly in the book (hardback p.83). But he was not a traitor from Nazi convictions & the book concentrates on those who were.

@TimTateBooks Hitler's British Traitors. We have never met but I work with David and Rik. I edited Murder by the Sea and I edited and wrote the British x-files amongst lots of other things.

Thank you for this recommendation. The book is available from Amazon and all good booksellers. And with as much modesty as I can muster, it's a bracing read and a very important secret history ...
Unite Against Fascism@uaf

@TimTateBooks Hitler's British Traitors is a must read & worth looking at again in the light of those in high places echoing far right propaganda... Sure @Bookmarks_books @CaltonBooks @newsfromnowhere @MushroomBooks can get you a copy.

If you need any more recommendation, even the CIA calls my @iconbooks investigative spy expose & legal drama "captivating", "cogent" and "exceedingly well" written. And who am I to disagree ?
Icon Books@iconbooks

@TimTateBooks tells the story of Peter Wright's ruthless and lawless obsession to uncover Russian spies, his determination to reveal the truth, and the lengths the British government would go to silence him. To Catch a Spy is out now in paperback! bit.ly/3JKwDl1

Hey @EnglandRugby: try watching @FranceRugby vs Italy (happening now). Pace, power, precision & adventurous offloads, not box kicks & programmed players fitting into a dull pre-ordained 'system'. Guess what - it's great to watch.

@MickClearyTel Borthwick & 'thinking' ...? In the same sentence ? And without apparent irony.

Borthwick needs to explain his thinking on Maro. Either he is fully fit or he isn’t. You can’t sub off your captain two games in a row without consequence

Ireland brilliant. young generation emerging. England pay huge price for choosing media stars to play against hard-bitten Test players.

Level of @EnglandRugby is inexplicable. Considering millions thats ploughed into it & the player pool available serious questions need to be asked re whole system & those in charge. Seems players are more interested in getting on #Strictly or @imacelebrity than playing Int Rugby!

Coaching and selection all wrong - Itoje - Passenger, head gone - No line out option in the backrow - Ford - love him, didn't blame him for last week but it's clearly got to him - Dingwall being a second play maker - Arundell shit in the air in the Prem, same at Test level

@RugbyInsideLine The man is a complete embarrassment. Sack him immediately (and Wigglesworth with him).

@AndyGoode10 Borthwick was mediocre as a player & as a captain. He's definitely not an international-standard coach - and never has been

England getting schooled here a load of players playing nowhere near their level, big questions around Borthwick’s abilities as a head coach too

@SquidgeRugby If I were Lee Blackett - a very fine attack coach - I would resign: Borthwick & Wigglesworth are clearly preventing him doing his job

-> Build your entire game around winning aerial contests -> Pick a winger who is dogshit in the air -> Wonder why the plan isn't working anymore
