I'm so torn about #bbcimpartiality - it's clearly there and it's clearly disturbing ... but so are the calls to stop paying the license fee and boycott it. That's as stupid as boycotting the NHS because you don't like the way it's being run!

![Cartoon by Stephen Collins for The Guardian. Script as follows:
[scene is Winston Churchill in a bbc studio, giving his 'finest hour' speech]
1
CHURCHILL:
The whole fury and might of the enemy must very soon be turned on us.
2
CHURCHILL:
Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this Island or lose the war.
3
CHURCHILL:
If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be free
and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sun-
BBC PRESENTER:
Thank you prime minister
4
BBC PRESENTER:
Mr hitler, your response?
5
HITLER [in the studio]:
Vell zis is hysterical woke nonsense as usual from mr Churchill
6
HITLER:
What we are proposing -
CHURCHILL:
Hang on
7
HITLER:
Let me finish - what we are proposing eez a simple power-sharing arrangement -
8
CHURCHILL:
What's he doing here
BBC PRESENTER:
It's important we hear both sides of the debate
9
CHURCHILL:
This isn't a debate
You don't debate fascists
10
HITLER:
Oh here we go with ze Godwins law!
11
HITLER:
Why must you people always compare ze things you don't like to 'fascists, Nazis, Hitler'...
CHURCHILL:
Because you are a fascist Nazi Hit-
12
HITLER [standing up, saluting]:
RAUSS!
BBC PRESENTER:
*Please* Mr Churchill let him speak

Over 14 years of Tory ideological meddling, the BBC has been captured and cowed.

The BBC should be "impartial", but that doesn't mean refusing to make judgments.
A jury or a football referee should be "impartial": they should not be "partial", or prejudiced, to one side or other.
But that doesn't excuse them from making decisions. It's why we trust them to do so.

The BBC seem happy to allow Justin Webb to write article after article in right-wing papers and magazines without any comment but when Gary Lineker expressed his own views in public they went bananas. #r4today

Justin Webb on #Radio4 Today went out of his way to find as many Tory voters as he could to criticise Rachel Reeves - spectacularly smug dimwitted investigative journalism. Numbskull. #BBCImpartiality

The one-sided framing, glaring ommissions on points of law, and overal lack of any balance in this article is a *deliberate* choice by the BBC
Under Labour, institutional Transphobia has destroyed any expectation of fairness in the state media or safety in the NHS for Trans+ folk

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Now you have had a former leader of the IMF on to explain the negative impact of Trumps economic policy on the show, tomorrow will you have a crackpot like Liz Truss on to explain why your expert guest is wrong and Trump is right? #bbcimpartiality :)

The shock is #lauraK isn’t spouting some Deform nonsense.
Instead she appears to suggest that kids have to have a hard time to support the Greens?
