Not showing profit on the energy breakdown pie chart sums up the BBC though. Even if that witch is not on it, the BBC will still manage to gaslight us all.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

I totally agree, it’s a BBC decision not to mention profit. It’s like discussing fire problems without being able to mention water as a solution.

Bringing up a pie chart for how energy costs are broken down without mentioning profit is gaslighting at its very best.

Showing a chart to show how energy bills are layered without showing profit on the chart. BBC gaslighting again. Privatization is the answer. They’re talking about stopping fire without being able to mention water. BBC bullshit.

Ooooh Michelle Mone and the likes must be terrified. Oh wait, if you’re already rich and you rob the government it’s ok. Got it.

Ask who pushes her agendas, Who funds her, who gets her to lie on behalf of the rich? Ask her why Johnson got off lightly, ask her does she think she’ll get away with the last 6 years of deception when the truth comes out. Ask her how much money she has made.

Just a grifter making a career out of Knuckle dragging Stella drinking toothless scum bags who have no idea that him and people like him are their real problem.

Proof if needed we live in an authoritarian country where the rich can get away with anything and the poor are blamed for all our problems. The rich own us.

Appalling report on the BBC letting us know that Prince Andrew is still a great father and family man. Can you imagine the same accusations for an immigrant with the same charges and proven lies. The BBC is out of control.

The silence of the Westminster lobby as one of their own backs calls for me — an elected Member of Parliament — to be deported is telling.

No condemnation, just bootlicking of their proprietors and jostling for Zone 2 dinner party invites.

Our media class is rotten to the core.

BBC making out like the giving up titles for raping under age women is enough of an embarrassment for Prince Andrew. Fucking despicable boot licking. What’s The difference between a Royal raping someone and a man with dark skin raping someone? Nothing, is the answer. BBC thinks differently.

The Tory media's shift from hysterically claiming that Starmer *did* intervene in the China spy case to hysterically claiming that Starmer *should* have intervened in the China spy case is a thing to behold.

Because the same folk that pay him are paying our media. It’s so one sided it’s out of control. GMB is as bad as GBNEWS now. Television for the toothless.

They lie about the ECHR.
Just like they lied about Brexit. Claiming if we just got rid of that ‘European’ thing, we’d be free, we’d have control, all our problems solved…
It’s NOT TRUE.
We’d inflict more chaos on ourselves and torch our own human rights framework for NOTHING.
For liars.
Again.

That £900k house in Frinton. Has anyone mentioned how it was paid for yet? Any laws broken, or all above board?

Anyone investigating? Media grown a conscience? Any journalist working for the British people? Anyone?

Half way through another week of silence then.

Why are they Israelis hostages and Palestinian prisoners? I’m confused. A lot of these so called prisoners have been held captive for much longer than 2 years. BBC is just poison

We said it was Fascism.

Now the President's 19 year old son will be put on the board of a $300bn company.

It's Fascism.

There's monuments to Margaret Thatcher everywhere

Filthy, ripoff, privatised English Water, Thatcher
Ripoff Energy, most expensive in the world, Thatcher

Gambling industry holding UK govt to ransom.

William Hill joins Ladbrokes and Coral to warn Chancellor - increase tax and we will shut shops.

Happy to dodge taxes; not bear cost of harms inflicted on gambling addicts and their families.

Who governs - govts or corporations?

William Hill owner says it could shut shops if Reeves raises gambling taxes

Evoke considering the plans before expected tax increases in budget, with up to 1,500 jobs potentially affected

Laura Kuenssberg has interviewed all the Party Leaders with more than 10% in the polls.

Except Zack Polanski.

She cancelled his interview and now refuses to do it.

They are scared of Zack, they are scared of you.
