Pertinent to remind everyone that the man who sent "go home" vans around the country to intimidate black and brown people is now in charge of our public broadcaster's political output #C4news #BAFTA #RobbieGibb
‘[Jeremy] Bowen can speak more firmly than younger colleagues. The #BBC is shaken: many journalists are furious that one of the BBC's own directors, #RobbieGibb, appointed by then prime minister #BorisJohnson, has fanned allegations of bias.’ 1/

#Kuenssberg comes across as a fully paid up member of Team #RobbieGibb
*Not a compliment.
' #ElonPerry,(aka Eli Ifrah)claims to be a #British-based #Israeli journalist.He wrote a number of #FAKE articles about the #Gaza war which @jewishchron.bsky.social printed.'

Concerns over politicisation have concentrated on the role of Robbie Gibb, the self-styled “proper Thatcherite Conservative” who served as Theresa May’s communications chief when she was prime minister. He was placed on the BBC board by Boris Johnson and given a new term by the last Conservative government. It has been alleged that he and other government-appointed members were most vocal about allegations of liberal bias raised by a former external BBC adviser, Michael Prescott.
Oh you've noticed that have you?
"Tim Davie not right wing enough for GB News creator Robbie Gibb"
You've noticed that yeah?

British broadcasters and journalists are being censored for the benefit of a foreign President who has declared war on our values.
Where will you read this story? In the British News?

Well done Lewis. #RobbieGibb will be proud of you: he spotted your potential!

This is why we’ve got to get rid of quislings like #RobbieGibb from the BBC board but #LisaNandy doesn’t see the problem
What about the idea someone can get a car because of allegedly minor conditions, such as acne? “Government data shows there are just five people claiming enhanced mobility [of the gateway benefit, personal independence payments] for acne,” says Laura Burnip from Scope. “The stats don’t show co-conditions, so those people could have multiple other disabilities too.” That means the handful of people with acne who are eligible for a Motability car - but are not necessarily leasing one - could have, say, arthritis as well. The British Association of Dermatologists also confirmed to me that there are ways acne might impact mobility, including rare forms that can cause joint pain. GB News pundits, funnily enough, aren’t medically qualified.
Ignorance is worn with pride, pettiness and spite are seen as virtue on GB News.
This is BBC overlord Robbie Gibb's other project by the way, but he isn't 'biased' on no...everyone else is /s

Please sign and share🙏
#RobbieGibb said if he doesn't get his way, he'll blow the #BBC up. It's ridiculous that a man like that has a spot on the BBC's board. Our public broadcaster MUST be independent. Agree? Sign to get Gibb sacked: 38d.gs/mpsn
BBC News rrrrrreally doesn't want to cover the Nigel Farage racism story, does it... #RobbieGibb
We are living through one of the worst moments in the BBC’s history:

The little weasel #robbiegibb has been busy twisting arms, hasn’t he?
The #RobbieGibb #BorisJohnson agenda!
news-watch.co.uk/about-us/
This is a looney toons right wing outfit which proudly bills itself as offering a “BBC Bias Digest”.
No mention of #robbiegibb but of course we do find Mr David Keighley, in real life a former publicity officer at the BBC.
Again he has promoted himself to “Producer”!
I see #RobbieGibb is still on the #BBC Board...
Not while #RobbieGibb is on the Board.
Mark Damazer on #RobbieGibb: "What I find surprising..is that a man of this degree of intelligence with what I think is probably a genuine passion for impartiality rather than advocating Thatcherite Conservatism.."
"For me, someone who is as clearly political+politicized as #RobbieGibb, however much he might feel that he is the heart+soul of impartiality when he's inside the #BBC, has been a problem for sometime..we can learn a lot of lessons about a new governance structure that we need.."
From @vlvuk.bsky.social conference, fyi #SamirShah does not have the power to remove #RobbieGibb from the #BBC Board.
Wondering if Comedians appearing on the BBC are allowed to tell jokes about Trump?
#BBC #Censorship #ReithLecture #rutgerBregman #Trump #UKPOL #UKPOLITICS #RobbieGibb
Bregman, who has previously said the US could be on the verge of an “authoritarian breakthrough”, said the edit of his speech had been made “against my wishes” and left him “genuinely dismayed”. “Not because people can’t disagree with my words, but because self- censorship driven by fear (Trump threatening to sue the BBC) should concern all of us,” he said. “It’s especially ironic because the lecture is exactly about the ‘paralysing cowardice’ of today’s elites. “About universities, corporations and media networks bending the knee to authoritarianism. I share this with respect for the many excellent journalists at the BBC. And with the hope that transparency helps strengthen, not weaken, our democratic culture”
So now our Press is being censored so a Foreign Tyrant doesn't sue the BBC? And where is the Prime Minister during all this? Saving his own premiership right now, too busy to defend the UK against foreign aggression

Bregman, who is giving the BBC's prestigious annual Reith Lectures, said his claim that Trump was “the most openly corrupt president in American history” had been taken out. He said he had been told that the decision to remove the accusation was taken at the “highest levels within the BBC”.
Here's the BBC Bias, subjectively Trump is a very corrupt man, it's barely partisan to say it, unless you're someone like Robbie Gibb, who can look past Trump's sex crimes and corruption and see the beautiful tyrant underneath...

Here is the REAL #BBCBias, lead by #RobbieGibb.
Makes you wonder who is behind this censorship of Trump on the BBC? #RobbieGibb #SamirShah BBC may not be in 'safe hands' under its chair, says committee head www.bbc.com/news/article...
@johnjcrace.bsky.social brilliant at taking apart the #DCMScommittee hearing into the Trump - BBC crisis: Prescott the ingenu, self flagellating Samir Shah & deflecting, impartial Sir Robbie Gibb 😮😂😂

3hago 18.02GMT Gibb says he has ‘impartiality through my bones’ Gibb said he has become “weaponised” before telling the committee that he is “hugely impartial”. He said: “I think there couldn’t be a bigger mismatch between the way I'm presented in some quarters, in relation to my attitude. “I think I've become weaponised in terms of how I'm perceived. “Everyone who knows me knows that ’m hugely impartial. I have friends across the political divide. “You know, I have impartiality through my bones.”
Just because Trump get away with these outrageous lies doesn't mean you can Gibb.
