Strangely enough @BBC didn’t get the helicopter views. Perhaps those WhatsApp messages from No10 are still getting through. @mrjamesob @campbellclaret

Tens of thousands on the streets to protest the govt’s cost-of-living failure.
Teachers, doctors, civil servants, university & rail workers striking together for fair pay.
It’s time to send @RishiSunak a message:

Impartiality
BBC whistleblower says their headlines are “determined by calls from Downing Street on a very regular basis.”
Management “appeared to be worried about losing access to politicians and briefings from No 10 if they crossed the Downing Street operation.”

A final thought: however difficult the last few days have been, it simply doesn’t compare to having to flee your home from persecution or war to seek refuge in a land far away. It’s heartwarming to have seen the empathy towards their plight from so many of you. 3/4

Today, more than 50,000 junior doctors begin a 72-hour strike. Why?
🏥 Unbearable workloads and record waiting lists
📉 Real pay down 26% since 2008
🚑 Pay now as low as £14.09 per hour
🩺 79% considering leaving the profession
RT if you’re behind our NHS workers 👊

When people make comparisons with what went on in Germany in the 1930s, I refer to these words from the Auschwitz Museum to judge if there is some truth in their claim.
Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred gradually developed from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence.
It took time. #GenocidePreventionDay

An excellent, honest, straightforward account of the BBC’s ‘crisis’, from the BBC itself, naturally. You won’t find anything in the rest of the media as good as this: yet another reason why the UK and the world needs the BBC to be strong & self-confident. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64929269

Gary Lineker suspended by the BBC for upsetting the Conservatives because he stood up for some of the most vulnerable people in the world. The same BBC whose chairman gave the Conservatives £400,000 before helping to arrange an £800,000 loan for Boris Johnson

If I was worried about people comparing me to 1930s Germany, my next move probably wouldn't be to shut down all criticism on the national broadcasting service
