Should TalkTV have stated a reporter who reached Britain via a small boat was a Reform member/activist? Media critic Mic Wright says failing to gave a partial picture to viewers. Isabel Oakeshott, who oversaw doc, says how he votes is "his own business" theguardian.com/media/2026/a…

I'm struggling to think of a worse, more unnecessary hill for any government to choose to die on. One million people have already signed a petition against ID cards. If we’re serious about rebuilding trust, this is the last place to start. It's like deciding to become a pacifist and then walking into your roughest local pub and knocking everyone's pints out of their hands. It's actually mind boggling.

Thought of this piece by @brokenbottleboy today as @bbcnickrobinson introd'ed @BellRibeiroAddy by her X profile descrition on #r4today Less like objective journalism, more a not so subtle setting the tone for the interview 🤔🧐 Socialist, anti-racist, feminist 👏🙌
