WHY DID BBC BREAKFAST GIVE REFORM UK A SPECIAL GRAPHIC?
A small detail in a brief report sparks some big questions about what the national broadcaster is doing during the run up to local and national elections.

One of the very few politicians with any backbone in the UK. Solidarity Zarah
Zarah Sultana has just been kicked out of the commons for calling Starmer a barefaced liar.
Zarah is spot on. Keir Starmer is a barefaced liar. We all know it.
And as for Lindsay Hoyle. I'm old enough to remember what a corrupt speaker he is.
Ha same, I'm actually trying to cut down slightly because I don't sleep well! TBF I think doing a PhD is probably more detrimental to my sleep!
💯 agree with this. Absolutely bends my mind when I hear academics talking (in reference to qualitative research) about 'how much more data you can analyse' using AI. Erm nope. The amount data AI is able to conduct a reflexive qualitative analysis of, is zero.
Ha same here!
This 👇 My Dad was moaning about the greyhound ban last week to me. I politely pointed out that we're as working class as it gets and neither of us have either been to a greyhound race, or know a single person who has! Yet again elites painting a caricature of the working classes.
Capitalism is a hell of a thing
More excellent news re net zero. I'm constantly told to be more optimistic when critiquing "net zero".... personally I'm quite confident in my assertion that we're not doing particularly well
Yes, in 90s film Waterworld, the natural habitat for the Earth was water. That was fictional though dude. These people are terrifying.
This entire thread from Matt Goodwin's appearance in Hungary today is absolutely hilarious 😂
Amazing edition!
The Met keeping us safe again. The proscription has been ruled illegal yet they choose to carry on arresting these peaceful activists as terrorists. They're doing this because they truly believe in the mission of removing dissenting voices.
Hahahaha
Robert Jenrick Apparently the Green Leader, Zack Polanski wants to ban horse racing. What nonsense. Horse racing is an integral part of our heritage. It's a sport that supports tens of thousands of jobs in rural communities, and is a lot of fun those of us who enjoy an occasional flutter. Speaking of which, I popped into the bookies in Newark ahead of the Grand National. Tip from Steve in Ladbrokes: Gorgeous Tom - was 22/1. But don't rely on that!
Less fun for the horses that fall in the Grand National and have to be shot.
The Tony Blair Institute should at this stage be regarded as a hostile entity working to directly harm British sovereignty.
Excellent! 🙈
Is it HEPI who have said that we need to build bridges/work with Reform et al?
True bravery
Keir Starmer really is the emptiest of empty vassals
And here’s our report. Please don’t read it, share it, or repost it. The legal risk is, quite literally, incalculable.

Ahead of the curve as ever I see. Took what, nearly two years for you guys to work out that Gaza was genocide.....but yes, is Trump actually a fascist, the question that really is now stumping experts everywhere
Not so sure about the assertion that there would be sanctions if it were any other world leader. Netanyahu continues his genocide in Palestine, and has moved on to both Lebanon and Iran. We found out just how meaningful international arrest warrants are during the course of his actions.
Has been for a while unfortunately. He's part of Together Declaration
Was seeing a real rise in this at the end of my career in education and it was a real worry. One of the mind bending bits of the guardian article is the call "for better training for staff". Erm news flash, they're leaving in droves and are not being replaced. How about tackling the actual problem
This would be a huge contract for JCB.
In other news, the JBC group has so far given £1.1 million to the Conservative party and Kemi Badenoch since she became its leader
I research green transitions in UK agriculture. Honestly a lot of the time I really do wonder what exactly the point is, this is what we're up against.
Jesus wept
