That was an astonishing episode of #UniversityChallenge, with a score disparity that we don’t really expect by the time we’ve reached the semi-finals. #Madgwick could probably win the final on their own. We’ll find out next week! #Imperial #Manchester #AmolRajan
#R4Today
Grow up, #AmolRajan
“Sugar is BANNED. Sugary-desserts only once a week, desserts to be at least 50% fruit …”
Well, that’s two things that prove sugar is NOT banned
Tragic for the sugar salesperson whose witty business name (that Rajan hadn’t bothered to learn) relied on selling #sugar.
#R4Today
At last!
The #idiot #Trump has finally had a genius idea
The solution to the #blockade of the #StraitsOfHormuz is …
… a blockade of the Straits of Hormuz
I can’t wait for #NickRobinson and #AmolRajan to tear him a new one

#R4Today
Why do you bother inviting guests to the show, only to interrupt them for the weather?
#AmolRajan could simply tell us what they would have said anyway.
This would also save your presenters having to misrepresent guests, if they dare to say the wrong thing.
#R4Today
“Why not just cut taxes on businesses, and they will employ more people?”
Where is your evidence for this, #AmolRajan?
Businesses will make bigger profits if taxed less. Profit, not job creation, is the goal of business.
Shareholders don’t just give away their own income to help others.
“E=mc², of course”
… says #AmolRajan, showing why he was a better fit for #UniversityChallenge
How many armchair UC fans could resist reaching for the imaginary buzzer at the first mention of “Einstein’s famous formula”?
Sadly, #R4Today is a place for journalism, NOT enthusiastic bluffers.
#amolrajan when there's limited evidence on the causal effect of hazards such as #socialmedia or #deviceuse but there's an indication that this is possible/likely then apply the #precautionaryprinciple
That #AmolRajan gets around doesn't he?
In todays #Observer,#Today presenters 'jumping ship'. #AmolRajan going, #EmmaBarnett considering same. A personal opinion ? I wouldn't miss either of them,I find both extremely annoying first thing in the morning.
Nothing says you're a real entrepreneur more than holding on to your well paid BBC stipends
#amolrajan #R4Today
I could not be happier to wave goodbye to the monotonous faux intellectuality of #AmolRajan from #R4Today, even more so having read the florid, pretention of his leaving statement.
'The great digital Narnia'. Don't let the wardrobe door hit your arse on the way out.

Never liked this guy, he's an example of what is wrong with the BBC, too many Tories and Fash curious Establishment types.

“Your father was one of the Gdansk shipbuilders”
I think #AmolRajan could have shown a little more empathy while disclosing this information to the poor Polish politician.
No matter how much you love #StarWars, Amol, live on #BBC #R4Today is not a nice way to discover such things.
"We are now in a period when strong men control spheres of influence ............"
(#bbcr4/today, former Head of MI6 talking to #AmolRajan)
So where is Europe? One would think this reinforces the insanity of Brexit, but, distressingly, I currently see no strength in the EU -
#LyseDoucet clear and analytical with #AmolRajan just now @BBCRadio4
Yes, the irony being that most of these so-called "scroungers" will probably vote for right-wing bastards like Reform and the Tories.
Talk about turkeys and Christmas... 🤦🏻♂️

“Don’t let lack of evidence get in the way of a cute story”
#AmolRajan summarises editorial policy at BBC #R4Today
#Cats
I can’t imagine #amolrajan using pejoratives like #scroungers in that way. Just saying.

#ChrisPackham on the #TodayProgramme speaking truth to a resistant #AmolRajan. Talking about the #NationalEmergencyBriefing this morning in Westminster.
We really look forward to hearing your feedback @simonlightwood.org.uk as we can't get there from #Wakefield today.
#BBC #R4Today
#AmolRajan: “Real family incomes are lower than in 2008”
… and Labour has been in government for 3 of those years, 2 of them during the global #FinancialCrash.
Thank goodness there is no other political group that could feasibly be held responsible for the slump in wages.
#BBCBias
#BBC #R4Today
#AmolRajan: “Is this #Labour government the worst ever?”
Ruth Curtice, #ResolutionFoundation: “Absolutely appalling. In fact, the only one worse was the last #Tory one”
‘The Market’: “Hmmm, this budget looks good. Let’s cut the cost of government borrowing”
Jim Fletcher: “🤔🤔”
This fash POS is presenting University Challenge now?
The guy who thought we all needed to hear Enoch Powell's 'Rivers Of Blood Speech' in the 21st Century.
Funny how the 'radical ideas' men like this want to explore with your Licence Fee are always on the Right side of the political spectrum […]
Inspired by this fresh perspective. Thanks @wanderinggaia.bsky.social for showcasing the best of migration, albeit often driven by the brutality of climate change. Loved your BBC Radical podcast with #AmolRajan: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
