Cathy Freeman-Pates @cathyf-p.bsky.social · 03/08/2026I heard it too on my car radio causing me to shout swearwords at it. And they just let that piece of populist nonsense run with no commentary or challenge! They just let him describe small boat crossings as an "invasion". Completely dehumanising. Absolutely disgraceful from the BBC. 053
