Beth Rigby is incredibly aggressive and rude. Interrupting and jabbing her finger at Starmer. It’s nauseating.

SKY apparently just as bad, not that I watch it anymore.
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?

Rigby appallingly aggressive
Rigby is a huge Farage mate. These far-right hacks must be on huge bonuses should they deliver their Fagash hero into No 10.
It looks a certainty now. Those champagne (sorry English sparkling) corks will soon be popping.
Country is screwed. 51st state of the USA everyone?

Rigby so aggressive -not journalism!
I watched Beth Rigby interview the Prime Minister on the budget and the aggression of her questions and attitude were really disturbing. The need by @skynewsrss.bsky.social political analysts to get a gotcha moment is meaning they are not reporting the news any more - just trying to catch Govt out.

Beth Rigby was beyond aggressive interviewing Starmer - it was horrible to witness her ‘attack’ no respect for Starmer- never witnessed that form of aggression on Johnson Farage etc

Keir Starmer, "I have repeatedly said that I want my government to drive down child poverty"
"That is a political mission, it is a personal mission"
"I don't want hundreds of thousands of children in this country living in poverty"

If inflation comes up at the dinner table, don’t forget to draw attention to a deeper structural driver of high prices: corporate power.
Much of the food industry is dominated by a few corporate giants with the power to keep prices high because they face little competition.

Why are people suddenly pearl clutching over income tax thresholds?
Where have you been for the last 4.5yrs?
The freeze has been in place since Apr 2021, when Chancellor Sunak froze them from 2021 to Mar 2026!
Then Chancellor Hunt froze them further in Autumn 2022 to Mar 2028!

I'm sure if finances were available Rachel Reeves would fund everything & reduce tax. Labour are trying to help people, not feather the nests of their pals like the Tories do. Check George Osborne's budgets or any other Tory chancellor over 14 yrs & you will see a real difference in who helps.

Political hacks such as Rigby, Mason and Coates should spend one year every five on secondment doing voluntary work in the poorest parts of the UK.
It would end their obsession with shenanigans in the Westminster bubble.

Are members of the public allowed to complain to the parliamentary standards committee because I'm of the opinion that Badenoch really isn't representing any members of the public except herself & her offensive performance yesterday shouldn't go unchallenged.

Caught about 20 secs of Badenoch's response to budget speech yesterday (I refused to listen at the time) & genuinely appalled at how low the Tories have sunk. Are crass sneering ad hominem insults really the best they can do? Embarrassed that this woman is allowed anywhere near public office.
