Woke and in favour of a functioning NHS and criminal justice system, benefits for the less fortunate, decency and honesty. So delighted to have got rid of the Tories #FBPE
I just find it impossible to comprehend how reasonably intelligent people can be so utterly duped.
She still seems to believe there was trafficking from a Washington pizza basement, and won't accept the debunking.
"That's what they would say"

That's why they are trying to kill off reputable media

I know her, and she's very right wing. Earlier discussion covered disclosure of previous convictions to a jury, and managed to get agreement as to why that is important.
But she's down a rabbit hole on some stuff.

Error.
Choice of questions awful, and moderation even worse.
This programme needs to be sourced from a different provider.

Not sure I can handle being smarmed to death by a right wing protagonist. But I'll try this time.

Who's hosting?

A nogo for me

More seriously than my first reply, if A sues B for reputational damage for one transgression, would not a more powerful defence be for B to sue A for repeated transgressions that they had previously deemed minor?

But if the BBC could claim, say, a trillion dollars on the original arbitrary basis, we could all have licence fee rebates for the last 40 years and free forever. 😉

I still rather like the idea of a countersuit by the BBC for repeated reputational damage by Trump describing them as "fake news".
Is that a possibility?
November 13, 2025 at 9:51 PM
I had a bet with someone that Trump would last less than two years because of his flagrant dishonesty and mysogyny.
How he was re-elected is beyond belief.

From over the pond, I was with you then and are even more so now.

Not exactly rocket science!

It is so sad that I agree.

The BBC should be empowered to be the voice of honest debate, not the mouthpiece for bullshit.

BBC is trusted globally, but has lost its integrity.

Joe for DG of BBC!

You heard it here first
November 11, 2025 at 12:08 AM
He's pretty fucking good at spotting traitors. Go Joe!

The classic shit will be if Starmer took steps to remove the potential for political bias, he would be accused by all the billionaire owned media of introducing bias!

Ugh

Of course.
