Centrist. London. Pro EU. Rejoiner. Democracy is under threat, not only from the dictators & authoritarians that occupy the planet, but also from within existing democracies. Private power + wealth is being used to overturn & threaten our democracy.
BBC News have got their new bone to chew on. Again their lead non-news, is Starmer & Reeves & the budget. They are just stirring it up, trying to make life uncomfortable for the Govt. The question is, how long they flog this nonsense?. Mason is there pontificating, as usual. It's all very tiresome.

The bloated salaries of the BBC need reducing. There is no justification for such huge numbers. A 50 % cut and they're still overpaid.

Russian state media is leveraging Putin's recent statements to intensify the false narrative that the frontline in Ukraine will imminently collapse, likely in an effort to coerce the West and Ukraine into capitulating to Russian demands:

Before the Budget I told you the Chancellor was going to do 3 things with it:
💷 Tacking the cost of living
✂️ Cutting NHS waiting lists
📉 Driving down borrowing and debt
How did I know?
Because if you ignore the media and listen to what the government said, they told us.
And she delivered all 3.

Fat chance. A large group are dead and many are heading towards voluntary dementia. It still doesn't stop the rest, still wanting Reform to carry the torch in wrecking process of the UK and enriching those who spread their nonsense.
