I’m 60+ and can’t recall another time when BBC/MSM headlined the “look at me” policies of a minority Political Party plummeting in polls, with just 8 MPs..

Front page news. I’m not one for conspiracies but it’s hard not to feel like the BBC has been captured by a far-right political ideology, certainly when it comes to people seeking asylum and exercising their human right to migrate.

BBC’s coverage of Reform’s welfare plans is frankly bizarre. Headlines in Ten, leading on some radio networks. Reform are not even the official opposition and the plans have less credibility than Count Binface. Will BBC News do the same for Lib Dem and Greens policy two years out from an election?
