The BBC's job is to allow viewers to hear a wide range of different opinions and have those opinions challenged fairly and impartially. That is all. It is not their job to tell anyone what to think. #Newsnight

So I guess my "ban it" comment wasn't particularly well thought-through. Just wish I had a blue tick as I'd've make a packet with all the replies 😂 #MillionPoundShot
So yes, ban advertising and make them play a PSA every so often.

@YWHelp Why can't I change my DD amount online like I can with my energy supplier, or any other company?

Ban gambling. Simple. No-one *needs* it. Causes more problems than it solves.
Or at least ban advertising/sponsorship by gambling companies.
(And no, I don't include @TNLUK)

I wach @newswatchbbc for the ridiculous comments from some viewers.
(Reporting in storms)
Viewer: The BBC are putting their reporters in danger.
Reporter: No. I was never in any danger. Here's proof.
Viewer: I don't believe you.
🤣🤦♂️

Come on @SyfyUK Why haven't you aquired "The Librarians: The Next Chapter" yet? You aired the original series so this seems like a no-brainer! Please!

😮😠 RIP. Read his autobiography last year. What a life. Might have to watch "Best Of Both Worlds" again soon.

@RoxieUncensored Sorry. You're right. That comment wasn't really reflective of how I feel. Not sure why I posted it. I have deleted it. What I meant was Tommy gets what he deserves based on his actions. It should not affect his family.

OMG! Yes! This is how you deal with #influencers 🤣

The new Prime Minister is writing a "10-year plan" for the UK. The arts and culture MUST be part of it. I've signed @_CFTA's petition urging @AndyBurnham to revitalise the arts – to revitalise the whole nation 🌱 Please join me: campaignforthearts.org/petit…

Gotta love all these right-wingers getting their knickers in a twist over the latest relevation that the BBC doesn't share their views and opinions, based on an article by a partisan, right-wing newspaper. Especially when they're accused of being both!

For every new policy idea the @Conservatives announce, the first question asked should always be... "Well you had 14 years. Why didn't you do that already?" @KemiBadenoch

Hey @ParamountPlusUK ST:VOY seems to have disappeared into a spacial anomoly. When are you mounting a rescue mission? (You can't have lost the rights so I assume it's just a glitch?)

I'm actually agreeing with Piers Morgan on something 😮
I’ve seen some brass necks in my time but Earl Spencer slamming the ‘malign cancerous’ way the media supposedly treat Harry/Meghan, whilst simultaneously flogging his book which treats King Charles in a malign cancerous way (as he actually battles cancer) is beyond parody.

Not really a fan of wasting the energy using AI this sort of thing, but I will make an exception in this.

I think we can safely assume that most of the PC-selling companies from my 03.93 copy of "What Personal Computer" have long-since ceased trading. The one that hasn't is...... @NovatechLtd (Have only removed contact info as probably out-of-date.) Nice one guys!
