Richard has ruined the game for 2 people, Amol and James.
Hope the Faithfuls recognise that he is a Traitor who silenced both his critics. Now James’ fate is on the ropes too as he has to keep quiet on Richard. What a stupid thing to do. Who thought he was suitable for the game? #CelebrityTraitors

Harborne calls his latest bung to Farage a “philanthropic gift to the country”.
Philanthropy isn’t funding racists and climate deniers. Or funnelling cash into deregulation and removal of our rights so tax-avoiding billionaires can profiteer from the chaos. That’s just corruption. We don’t want it.

I understand times are hard in the TV and entertainment sector and that in the face of streaming services etc terrestrial channels struggle but instead of axing content, has the #BBC Director considered staff salaries not be a 6-figure number that starts with 3 at a minimum? #JustAsking #BBCcuts

Terrible decision by the #BBC to axe #Winterwatch a few years after #Autumnwatch was cancelled. If I were @chrisgpackham.bsky.social I’d pack my bags to another broadcaster. We all love the Attenborough programmes but the ~watch is what happens on our doorstep. Better awareness can help everyone. 🌍

I am not a fan of Burnham. Chris Mason here, “impartial” as ever, asking the populist questions we all know the answers to and not failing, again, to plug RefUK as the credible alternative. See the pattern here?
Chris, RefUK is far from the voice of the country and should not be treated as such.

Reform have now lost six by-elections in a row in England, Scotland and Wales.
Their national poll rating is 26% – below Labour in 1983 – and Farage’s approval rating is -37.
They’re very far from the voice of the people and need to stop being treated as such.

Christ. Our national broadcaster, the #BBC is raising to the bait of the “N Ireland riots not being about immigrants” by normalising rioters saying “no, it’s not about the colour of people’s skin”. Why is the tax payer paying for this gutter of journalism in the name of impartiality?
