Today's 70% fall in net migration to 205,000 was not one of the six stories in BBC ten o'clock news.

Ta massive assymetry in whether rises in immigration and falls in immigration are considered newsworthy by broadcasters

Down by 140k isn't thought to be.

Up by 140k undoubtedly would be.

One of the world’s greatest news organisations has been brought to the brink of meltdown by… what, exactly? Three hours of MPs questions revealed nothing to write home about, writes @arusbridger.bsky.social.
A firestorm has ripped through the BBC—but no one will say why
Called before MPs, none of the characters who supposedly see so much wrong with the corporation would make a case for institutional bias

Labour's Budget is for every street in Britain.

👉 Cutting energy bills
👉 Lifting children out of poverty
👉 Rebuilding public services

While our opponents hide behind cheap, divisive politics, we're getting on with the job: changing Britain.

So its now been 4 days since the Witkoff-Ushakov transcript was released. And in that time, Witkoff has been confirmed in office, has been told he is off to Moscow, and has been strongly supported by Trump AND Putin.
Add 2+2 together and you get....

Out of the three phone hacking/illegal information trials involving Prince Harry that I covered this was always the messiest and least slam dunk case.

It’s interesting the Mail is wanting to put Paul Dacre in the witness box when the Sun paid enormous sums to keep Rebekah Brooks out of court.

Quick analysis of The Times today:
Wall to wall negative coverage of Labour’s budget. An editorial that tuts about lack of growth but takes no responsibility. And a double page ad to join Farage/Reform.
Absolutely no analysis on how rightwing ideology - including Brexit - has been utterly ruinous.

Blatant fucking corruption under rule of law

A Georgia prosecutor announced Wednesday he was dropping state charges against President Donald Trump stemming from his efforts to overturn the 2020 election, ending what was once considered the strongest criminal case against Trump.

The attacks on Labour from BBC News are now so relentless, day after day, minute after minute, putting headline negativity on absolutely anything they say, or do.

Are they now the official opposition?
