I used to respect the BBC but putting this out half an hour after the C4 documentary looks ridiculous

Farage is going to be furious. Turns out he wasn’t even the most attacked person in his own party let alone nationally….

This is a man, @mehdirhasan, whose time has come. The groupthink among my generation of editors has damaged the country and coarsened our politics.
It needs to be said that the @cathynewman show on Sky News has every quickly become must watch news TV. A step up for Sky and plugging the gap Newsnight left

I seem to have upset the @Nigel_Farage fan club - so let me be clear.
This man sows hate, lies and division.
He is a grifter and a conman.
He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.
RT if you agree
P.s. multiculturalism is great.

The level of stupidity/wilful ignorance/lying around the postponement of some local elections is off the scale — please circle you preferred choice.
Local councils were invited by government to submit requests for a postponement because they are part of a wider reorganisation of boundaries and local government.
Elections are proceeding as normal for the vast majority of councils but those undergoing reorganisation have requested a delay because they just don't have the capacity to run elections whilst their transition happens.
The narrative being pushed by Reform UK is just false and the fact that they are seeking an injunction to force elections to go ahead will cost the 29 councils untold cost and time.
They will be forced to stop their transitions and run an election for councillors in areas that may well not exist in six months.
Reform UK are seeking to wilfully create millions of pounds of waste to local government — much like their catastrophic DOGE; remember that disaster?
Please, if you see rubbish posts about the government cancelling elections, send them this way.

The most hilarious thing about the far right is how afraid they are of imaginary things. They're all "Grr I'm an alpha male but London is so scary tho" "1000 hobbits will descend on your village" Or some nonsense.

Please don’t retweet the hashtag #BrooksRiots because a certain vertically challenged pub landlord with PVC Turkey teeth will have a massive pissy knickered hissy fit.

Editor-in-Chief’s View: The tech takeover of Cannes is complete
Cannes has long been one of the most important events in the advertising industry’s calendar, but to echo the words of Terry Kawaja last week, the tech takeover of Cannes is complete.

Hope that Williams’ hamstring issue isn’t too serious because he was excellent. Along with Daly he’s really played himself up the pecking order. #Lions
Mack Hansen doesn’t really seem to bring anything to the Lions attack. Seems way off the pace #Lions2025
On the other hand, loving having James Lowe on my side for once! #Lions
