Neutrality is increasingly problematic in both theory and practice since X became such a toxic platform while so many people continue to use it to consume information.

Wrote this a couple of weeks ago. Feels more relevant still after today. And it’s a deficit of self awareness which goes far beyond some members of the BBC board.

Didn’t care much for Clement trying to humiliate Jurasek. Draw was not a fair result but manager made poor substitutions #ncfc

Referees don’t give red cards for that when opposition players push each other, but he couldn’t wait to give a red. Ridiculous by Gana, but even more ridiculous by the referee and more #PGMOL bias. #EFC

Two takeaways for today:
🔥 The sentencing of Gill is a perfect excuse to announce a public enquiry into Russia's involvement in UK politics – including Brexit.
🔥 Trump's demands on Ukraine prove that he's Putin's bitch – and no amount of sucking up to him by UK or EU leaders will change that.

Molly & Tyler are SO annoying on #raceacrosstheworld. Pathetic point scoring, stupid catchphrases and constant “you’re so great” “no you’re so great” rubbish

can't believe the BBC edited Donald Trump's posts to make it seem like he threatened violence against members of Congress

‘Too little, too late’: damning report condemns UK’s Covid response
Report on handling of pandemic contains stinging criticism of ‘toxic and chaotic’ culture inside Boris Johnson’s No 10 * UK politics live –latest updates The UK’s response to Covid was “too little, too late”, a damning official report on the handling of the pandemic has concluded, saying the introduction of a lockdown even a week earlier than happened could have saved more than 20,000 lives. The document also has stinging criticism of a “toxic and chaotic” culture inside Boris Johnson’s Downing Street – which it said the then prime minister actively embraced – in which the loudest voices held sway and women were sidelined.

The constant BBC News narrative that Ukraine is losing land quickly and losing the war quickly is at odds with the tiny Russian gains and the extraordinary Russian losses (900-+ Russian deaths a day). Why is the BBC peddling Putin propaganda?

My parents sent me to a private school - but I convinced them later to let me go to a state school because I objected to the private system.

And I still got into science at Cambridge.

Maybe if Seb had been denied that insular environment he wouldn’t’ve turned out to be the twerp that he is. 💁🏻‍♂️

"In Trump’s inter­view with GB News, Bev Turner, gave North Korea’s broad­casters a run for their money. “It feels much safer here,” Turner said, con­trast­ing Wash­ing­ton to Lon­don, though the chances of being murdered in DC are around 26 times higher than in Lon­don (you read that cor­rectly)"

It’s common in right wing circles to denigrate London as a crime ridden no go area. Guns a blazing draft dodging Trump and tin cans into space Musk are two of the worst for ridiculous fact free assertions. But truth will out.

I’m not Scottish. But visibly, the player was NOT in the area. Did #VAR check how #Denmark won possession? That was also a clear foul on the Scottish player. #Scotland

#Dykes is a frustrating watch. If a ball isn’t hit directly towards him, he wont run 3 yards to make an effort to challenge. He’s hardly “all action”. #Scotland

But a financial sanction against Everton wasn’t deemed appropriate?

Masters is definitely in the pocket of the ESL 6.

It’s a pity the journalists are as well.
