A new one for #BandcampFriday - (awkward?) 'Conversations With Roger' by The Safety Cupboard thesafetycupboard.bandcamp.com/album/conversa…

@Ferretgrove I feel sorry for the men who can't help being bald, and the old ones who can't help being old (and sometimes bald as well) who hate this mob as much as anyone else. As a woke as fuck hairy old man, I feel for them.

Looks like there’s some kind of old, bald man convention happening in London today.

@Euan_MacDonald Nothing surprises me with that gang of shitbags.

Why would this be done? Why remove the flag of the victim of an aggressor? This is a "red flag" about Reform UK's politics.

@BBCNews “Farage says” again.

@BBCBreaking Media witch hunt 1, government 0.

@TheWelshGoose US accounts stirring up the anti-English pot. And succeeding.

Some weird takes from Americans about Wales since Plaid got into gov...

@LDHMarketing @BBCNews Three, vs six Reform. And more than 60 councillors in 12 months, mostly for racial abuse.

@levitated @BBCNews Quite a lot of Greens seem to have stepped down too. But this is the problem, you don't see the wider picture when it's mainly covered by local press.

@BBCBreaking I wonder how the economy will fare this month, after the intense anti-government witch hunt from certain corners of our media?

Not often I say this, but I've been quite interested in what Ben Habib has had to say about Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson, this last day or two Does Chris Mason have any thoughts on UK democracy being bought & sold for a few million quid? #bbcbreakfast #R4Today

@markofagenius The "Hitler Youth songs“ accusations, a bit awkward too.

Farage gets so angry when asked even slightly tricky questions. I’m sure that’s not a good look for someone who wants to be the PM.

@LDHMarketing @BBCNews Exactly. If this number of Green, or Labour councillors had been kicked out in such a short time, there would be headlines for weeks.

@BBCNews When are you going to do a feature on ALL the councillors elected last Thursday who have already resigned or been suspended/expelled from whatever party. There seems to be a huge number this year. The public should get the bigger picture.

@BBCNews Seems the number of issues they’re having is worthy of a proper news item. Doncha think? Or do you just reserve negative headlines for left-wing parties?

@AdrianEdmondson Viv’s old ‘Brainwashing House’ line more apt than ever, these days.

So bored of news outlets trying to write the news rather than report it.

Have just quickly scanned @BethRigby tweets from the last day or so. Tweets about Starmer being under pressure / MPs calling for him to go: 53 Tweets about Nigel Farage not declaring a £5m ‘gift’ from foreign businessman: 1 How’s that for independent journalism?

@LWaunfawr @BBCWalesNews @OSullivanMike Twats then. Ignore ‘em, all the English people I know living here totally embrace Welsh culture. The ones complaining probably moan about ’too many forriners’ when they go on holiday to Spain.

@levitated @BBCWalesNews @OSullivanMike Those I am referring to are not bots 😉

National identity 'undermined' by replacing Welsh with English names on maps bbc.in/4eHN6DZ

The only people who need to resign today are the political journalists and editors at @BBCNews and @SkyNews I've never seen such a downright sinister plot to remove a democratically elected sitting PM. Our media is absolutely fucking toxic.

@MumofFatCassie @BBCNews @BBCNews is not fit for purpose.

The @bbcnews website currently has, as its second headline, a video of Wes Streeting walking up the road, entering No10, and then a cut to West Streeting exiting No10 and walking back down the road again. They've lost their minds. #r4today #wato

@A_Dan_Rainbow @LWaunfawr @BBCWalesNews @OSullivanMike Quite, most of them seem to be based in the US.

@LWaunfawr @levitated @BBCWalesNews @OSullivanMike Worth noting that the stuff you’ve seen online tend to either bots, gents pretending to be English or reform voters. None of them represent the people of England :)

@LWaunfawr @BBCWalesNews @OSullivanMike ‘Outside Wales’. Most of us who live here don’t have an issue with it. Ignore the bots, they’re just stirring up trouble.

@levitated @BBCWalesNews @OSullivanMike I’m not so sure. I see a lot of pissy tweets from people outside of Wales who are enraged at the idea of Wales rebuilding its identity.

@LWaunfawr @BBCWalesNews @OSullivanMike We’re not, it’s the media stirring the pot.

@BBCWalesNews @OSullivanMike This is Wales. We have Welsh place names. England has English names. No one should be offended by this.

@MikeJPretzel As with their Brexit coverage years ago, they only pick the ones matching their agenda.

Watching the BBC News tonight and the average British voter is so fucking thick.
