How ARROGANT & STUPID is BBC management to leave this man Raffi Berg in a position of such power over its output while Israel commits egregious war crimes, crimes against humanity and GENOCIDE and he ensures the coverage is disgracefully and shamefully biased in favour of Israel?

Bullshit. Nationalise them, you coward.
🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham says he will introduce 8 "regional water councils" to oversee water companies "For the first time, local people will have a real say over what they need from their water company, whether that's cleaning up polluted rivers or building new reservoirs"

Is the British judiciary deeply corrupted? It seems to be actively participating in & maintaining the criminal justice chaos that is one of the consequences of the indefensible proscription of Palestine Action
Today at the Supreme Court, counsel for Huda Ammori were interrupted by judges 147 times in 245 minutes as they tried to set out their case. 129 of those interruptions were actively hostile and contradictory. It meant counsel had to substantially curtail their case for time.

Quite ironic that governments spend billions on wars & call us violent. So cuts in education are not violence, cuts in healthcare are not violence, job insecurity & wage precariousness is not violence, real estate speculation that leaves people homeless is not violence, but protesting it is?!

.@BBCNewsnight @BBCNews constant defence of extremist, genocidal Israel is 1. Embarrassing for the BBC 2. Drains credibility from the BBC 3. A betrayal of basic journalistic standards
“No more military aid to the extremist government in Israel… what they’ve done to the Palestinians is genocidal…” Bernie Sanders tells BBC Newsnight. The presenter is quick to interject that “the Israeli government would deny they’re extremist…” Why are we still doing this?

I really don't care about her upbringing. People didn't vote for her upbringing. They voted for her to represent them. People like Rayner fall back on identity politics when they're caught out not doing that. Enough.
From a childhood marked by poverty in Stockport to becoming Britain’s Deputy Prime Minister and Housing Secretary. @AngelaRayner opens up about her upbringing, resignation and the threats against her family. Full interview out tonight at 7pm on YouTube and all podcast platforms. 🎙️

Classic Labour. Instead of the obvious solution - nationalisation- we get another toothless quango to 'oversee' how we're getting ripped off.

Tony Benn, my mum worked in the HOC and said he was the nicest person in it. He made time for everyone and was also to be found the same way, genuine ❤️
