    I think the BBC is reaching a tipping point.

    They have to decide whether they want to inform and entertain their native peoples with a truthful stance as they used to or whether they want to crusade for a fake, artificial and myopic view of what they want Britain to be which is what they have been doing with vigour for the past several years.

    I believe the first option is the only way they can survive in the long run but I fear they are now so infested and so lost in their wokist blinkered mantra they will continue with the second to their bitter end.

    They have reached a stage where it only takes one offended employee to wag a finger at their previous output and it’s straight on the bonfire.

    So the BBC will eventually fall on its own sword.

    I will not be shedding any tears…

    “MI5: 31 late-stage terror plots foiled in four years in UK”
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58512901
    Where did the plotters come from?
    I hope our Prime Minister and Home Secretary are aware of this ?
    For they have the safety and well being of the people of Great Britain in their hands as we watch the invasion of the Channel shores.

    “MP Nigel Adams filmed swearing at Mr Stop Brexit Steve Bray”
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-york-north-yorkshire-58518526
    Can you blame him ?
    Evidence that Al Beeb are Anti-Brexit. They will not let it drop and are now ‘scraping the barrel’.
    The sooner the outfit was closed the better for all.

      “MP swears at man who spends his life harassing others using a megaphone”
      .. is NOT a news story

      Swearing at people is not illegal
      .. If you screamed at someone to deliberately to cause them distress that’s assault I guess
      But a court shouldn’t believe that Bray is not accustomed to people swearing at him ..so no harm was done.

        The price of being a politician. Poverty pay long hours poor pay, for many having to work away from home and family and harassment like this.

    9/11 anniversary: How the world reacted to terror attacks
    https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-us-canada-58509703

    How can any report with this title be taken seriously if it does not also cover the jubilation in some Muslim countries ?. And apparently in some American states AND( I am 100% certain) in some parts of the UK.

    https://abcnews.go.com/US/video/abc-news-footage-shows-911-celebrations-35571201

    As usual, we get the standard mournful music while some Muslim’s talk about subsequent Islamophobia.

    Such omission makes the report a blatant agenda driven lie. It’s like talking about the Holocaust whilst avoiding blaming the Nazis.

    Norfolk family firm selling lorries due to driver shortage
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-58517215

    “…the firm advertised for a driver two months ago and has not received a single application.”

    Off course being the BBC, as usual, there’s no mention of the wage rate the firm was offering.
