The leader of the Liberal Democrats believes the role of the national broadcaster is to stop his political opponents.
The resignations of Tim Davie and Deborah Turness must be a chance for the BBC to turn a new leaf, rebuild trust and not give in to those like Nigel Farage who want to destroy it. We must stand up for a strong, independent BBC, to stop Trump’s America becoming Farage's Britain.
It's right that they've resigned, but not sufficient. The problem at the BBC is systemic.
BBC director general Tim Davie and CEO of News Deborah Turness resign over criticism of Donald Trump documentary edit bbc.in/3Xkxpsg
A BBC presenter attempting to show the BBC isn't politically biased by publicly criticising a politician.
Hands up all those who think @BorisJohnson is well placed to lecture anyone else on upholding standards & admitting mistakes. As I said this morning on @bbcr4today “it’s clear that there is a genuine concern about editorial standards and mistakes. There is also a political…
In reality, Oswald Mosley was a keen proponent of a united European state. He would have been shoulder to shoulder with Heseltine on the Brexit issue and an opponent of Farage.
At 92, the Tory grandee Michael Heseltine is making a comeback. He has harsh words for Nigel Farage and Reform, whose policies remind him of Oswald Mosley and Enoch Powell thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…
Margaret Thatcher, born 100 years ago #OTD, was our greatest prime minister. I know it is customary to prefix that accolade with “post-war” or “peace-time”, but I stand by it. Yes, Churchill got the big calls right in 1940. But he contracted out his domestic policy to Attlee. It…
The idea that a Government should be 'accountable to an international court' is a direct repudiation of democracy, by which a government is accountable to the people.
Being accountable to an international court means our Government has to answer to them if it tries to undermine your human rights. Be very suspicious of any UK politician who wants to remove that check on their powers. Share this and speak up for your freedoms.
The weirdest thing about this is that the Hitler Youth operated in Germany from 1926 to 1945, whereas Nigel Farage was born in Britain in 1964. So David Lammy's claim is not only totally bonkers, but utterly impossible.
🚨🎥 WATCH: David Lammy claims that Nigel Farage "flirted with Hitler Youth" when he was younger
Granting independence to the Bank of England was one of the worst political decisions of modern times. Monetary policy should be controlled by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who's accountable to Parliament.
The @bankofengland started their bond selling programme in Sepember 2022 - immediately before the Mini-Budget - pushing up gilt yields. In addition, they admit that two thirds of the gilt spike then was down to their failure over LDIs. Due to the ignorance/complicity of much of…
Stop calling everyone you disagree with Nazis. There’s a real world out there, and your words can make people pick up guns.
I say again that the solution to scandals like Graham Linehan’s arrest and wider concerns over free speech in Britain is simple. The law must be amended so that all speech - including inflammatory speech - is protected other than where it is both intended and likely to incite…
Anyone who still denies that the UK has a free speech problem just isn't being serious.
When @Glinner landed at Heathrow, he was met by five armed police officers, and immediately arrested. His ‘crime’? Three gender-critical tweets. As Graham says in his Substack: “In a country where paedophiles escape sentencing, where knife crime is out of control, where women…
People have every right to leave their money to their loved ones. Inheritance is simply a gift one makes upon one's death. We don't tax other gifts people choose to make. Inheritance tax is essentially a tax on dying.
‘You don’t have a right to inherit money from mummy and daddy that you did nothing to earn.' @Lewis_Goodall suggests hiking inheritance tax to 100% in order to reduce income tax and 'incentivise work.'
Does @lewis_goodall believe you have no right to receive other gifts (inheritance is just a type of gift received upon death)? For example, should people be forbidden from buying a car for their children or supplying the money for a house deposit? May spouses gift to each other?
‘You don’t have a right to inherit money from mummy and daddy that you did nothing to earn.' @Lewis_Goodall suggests hiking inheritance tax to 100% in order to reduce income tax and 'incentivise work.'
Bogus idea 1) issue is not whether a child has a right to inherit, it’s whether people have a right to spend their own money as they wish Bogus idea 2) he claims IHT incentivises moral goods like work - in truth it penalises moral goods like saving + looking after loved ones

It's difficult to see how anyone can seriously continue to deny the existence of two-tier justice in the UK. Now that a similar case has been tested in court, we know that Lucy Connolly would probably have been acquitted by a jury. But she never got her jury trial, because the…
These two contradictory policies were tweeted out four days apart. Do @EdwardJDavey and the @LibDems want closer economic ties with the Commonwealth or a customs union with the EU? It can't be both.
I hate saying ‘I told you so’ about the Online Safety Act, but I really DID - I also gave evidence to parliament It’s mad I was made to feel somehow subversive for defending free speech 🫠 The Act is a total disaster… We need to revive free speech in British culture ASAP
🚨"This [Online Safety Bill] is one of the most dangerous pieces of legislation for freedom of expression of recent years." "It's a danger to democracy." Today, we gave evidence to @OnlineSafetyCom on the #OnlineSafetyBill's impact on free speech. Our director @silkiecarlo⤵️
The Online Safety Act is plumbing new depths of stupidity ✍️ Sean Thomas spectator.co.uk/article/the-on…
