Did BBC radio 4 #Today programme really just do a whole package about drilling in the N Sea without once even mentioning #climate change? And not having anyone challenging the one-sided claims of former BP boss? So irresponsible #bbcr4today

Astonishing fact on #bbcr4today earlier, discussing the Heathrow power failure. Heathrow requires 41MW; a new data centre nearby needs 150MW. Stark illustration of the underpinning energy consequences of data storage.

And the #BBCR4Today coverage of Macron's remarks about Israeli genocide at the UN, only took the side of Israel being outraged, not the substance of Macron's statement.

Excruciating to hear Foreign Secretary attempting to make the case that because the UK Government wasn’t involved in US bombing of Iran, it can have absolutely no view at all of its legality - totally undermining rule of law #bbcr4today

Lammy praises Trump’s “incredible grace & generosity” on #BBCR4today. His earlier verdict was more accurate (“dishonest, xenophobic”). A man who made “criminal efforts” to overturn 2020 election result, who will trash climate & nature & threaten minorities. Solidarity with all who feel fear today

Stop conflating Job Seekers Allowance (JSA) with Personal Independence Payment (PIP)!
PIP is not JSA. #bbcR4Today
Disabled people IN WORK need their PIP just to keep working
Sorry to shout, but this infuriates me.

Really shocking to hear Nick Robinson parroting far-right talking points about the government's worthy attempt to constrain Kremlin disinformation
I can see why Robbie Gibb would like that but it isn't appropriate for a public service broadcaster

“We cannot have nuclear proliferation” says Foreign Secretary. Yet recent Govt decision to upgrade UK’s own nuclear weapons is precisely nuclear proliferation. Breaking terms of non proliferation treaty ourselves means we have no moral authority to tell others not to do the same #bbcr4today

Excruciating to hear Govt minister try to explain how expanding airport capacity won’t increase carbon emissions & drive #ClimateCrisis. It likely won’t even increase growth either given that corporate air travel is declining & 3 times as many tourists leave the country as come in. #BBCR4Today

Why didnt stunning Caerphilly victory clinch prime 8.10am slot for Plaid_Cymru on BBCr4today prog this am? Instead it's all about Labour & Reform losing. Wakey wakey chaps. This is why Welsh folk feel so ignored. Special free podcast with Yescymru folk I met last weekend.

Funny how I’ve heard Nigel Farage’s opinion on the BBC on #BBCR4Today this morning, but not @zackpolanski.bsky.social . Maybe The Telegraph should investigate?

Shocking to hear David Lammy refuse to answer the question about whether the US attack on Iran is legal or not
This cowardice in the face of US tyranny will not serve our country or the world well
We need a government that will defend the international legal order

Why haven’t you interviewed former deputy PM Nick Clegg? - CLEGG WAS A SENIOR META EXECUTIVE!
Why are you protecting the UKGovt but not children? Clegg knows Meta & what they do.
