Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I trust the host of #bbcaq is going to remind Tice of his previous comments in favour of ending the triple lock. That would be journalistic integrity. 040
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It's good to see Chris Mason back in ejaculatory mood. He's been having a hard time of it recently. 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 30/09/2026He's a wanker. And it does him good like it bloody well should. 031
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Robbie Gibb won't let him back on the tit if he does that. 140
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Not yet. “Cry” is one outcome at the end of his flow chart and, right now, he’s only up to “Are they UK nationals?” The blurry footage suggests that he won’t like the answer to the obvious next question, but that’s still unverified. 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Well she replaced Chris Mason who is eminently replaceable. Just doesn't happen enough. #bbcaq 020
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 26/09/2026"Thames Water aren't here to defend themselves." #bbcaq 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 26/09/2026John Glen is not the most propitious name. You've got the fella who directed the worst sequence of James Bond films and you've got this bellend. #bbcaq 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 19/09/2026"I'm not a racist, I'm a mathematician." Oh, alright then. #bbcaq 121
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Nothing other the production staff's primary job specification. 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 12/09/2026So there’s a Reform panelist on #bbcaq on a week when they haven’t chosen a question about Reform. I suspect that’s now the arrangement. #bbcaq 051
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 12/09/2026“Danny Tommo isn’t here to defend himself.” #bbcaq 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Making people *literally* jump through hoops to claim UC is indeed a tad extreme, Danny. #bbcaq 022
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Care to actually fact-check that statement that an explosive device was left on the Reform Conference stage, stand-in Any Answers host? No? OK, as you were. #bbcaq 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I’ve either just watched the last act of The Blues Brothers or Nadine Dorries being interviewed on #C4News, but I’m not sure which. 040
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Playing Jetset Willy was the gateway into my longstanding addiction to making pixel-perfect jumps over a giant animated razor blade inside the Megatree. @mrjamesob.bsky.social 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 24/08/2026If true, Mr. Stevens has quite the reach on him. 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Well, the alternative is the somewhat trite observation than any party leader that resigns is outlasted by their opposite. 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Starmer was Labour leader for six years and Badenoch has been Conservative leader for two, so the maths do not support the assertion that the latter outlasted the former. @mrjamesob.bsky.social 200
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 18/08/2026There's a risk there. If both of them glitch you'll have to order another pack. Otherwise the uncertainty will kill you. 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Turned on LBC to catch @mrjamesob.bsky.social, for my sins, and heard Ferrari using the statement "You cannot choke on a pea!" Of course you fucking can, if it goes down the windpipe, you pigshit-thick fucker. Actually, no I agree. Down with small-legume chokery. Leftist nonsense. 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 15/08/2026Evidently, when Reform are too frit to yield a #bbcaq panelist, the Gibb effect requires the chairperson to act as a proxy and state their arguments. 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 08/08/2026If we hadn't gone down the "dark path" of diversity we'd still be eating Vesta curries and watching Charlie Williams on Wheeltappers and Shunters, so I'm in team Dark Path. #bbcaq 240
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Rosindell didn't have Polish criminals in mind when he made that statement. #bbcaq 100
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Regular reminder when Willets is on #bbcaq that he had to resign from government for lying to a parliamentary committee. They tend to forget to mention it in his introduction... 022
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 03/08/2026@mrjamesob.bsky.social Thanks muchly - the image of Isobel Oakeshott and Lee Anderson getting it together has helped with my intermittent fast day. #LBC 110
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Kicking the Duke of Northumberland out of Alnwick Castle to commandeer it as Number 10 in the North would certainly be a statement. #bbcaq 110
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Anja Popp seemingly unaware that Oddie had been writing songs since at least 1963 for The Cambridge Circus review and then I’m Sorry I’ll Read that Again. #C4News 001
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Any Answers has become Any Wankers this week. Hope that’s not an editorial decision. #bbcaq 130
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Narrator: Neither Claire Fox nor Saquib Bhatti want Andy Burnham to do well. #bbcaq 040
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Starmer made the comments to which Maya took offence the year before he became PM, on Ferrari's show. @mrjamesob.bsky.social 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 18/07/2026It’s by John Rentoul, whose shtik is to come up with the most idiotic take on any given subject. 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 18/07/2026I'd posit that the Centre for Policy Studies should subject itself to far more public scrutiny. #bbcaq 121
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 07/07/2026That vox pop sequence was like the rightmost panel of the Garden of Earthly Delight. #C4News 030
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Can we have the same Labour guy against Farage as last time? Liked the cut of his jib. 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Notably, #C4News leads on Trump and Farage while the on-brand BBC News barely mentions either. 052
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 06/07/2026I don't often catch Tom Swarbrick on #LBC but it appears to be playtime for the shouty Wetherspoons demographic to eulogise that straight-down-the-line upstanding geeza Nigel Farage in the knowledge that the host will just soak it all up. 030
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 04/07/2026I am 58, and it has never occurred to me that I might throw a shoe at a radio. Feel I've been missing out. #bbcaq 030
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Danny Kruger using the Zia Yusuf move, there. At least he didn't say "hands up if you support Reform", but then that wouldn't work on radio. #bbcaq 000
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Call me a reactionary but I kind of miss the days when newscasters like Richard Baker and Reg Bosanquet didn’t open with headlines like “Beef! Grief! Heath”. #C4News 131
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 27/06/2026So what's this Mervin guy saying: that if Burnham becomes PM he's going to invent snooker and appease Hitler? #bbcaq 121
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 27/06/2026FAO Anita: if you're going to read out a post from someone comparing now to 1976, either precede it with the phrase"some fuckwit called Rob wrote" or don't bother. #bbcaq 120
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Can't get a Reformer on the fourth chair, so onto Plan B: opaquely-funded Tufton Street johnnie. #bbcaq 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 26/06/2026FAO baldy man 2. Rupert Lowe also does the fake beer drinker grift. #bbcqt 172
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 26/06/2026You’ll have to trust me on this one, but I knew *exactly* what the Reform supporter would look like before the camera found him. #bbcqt 171
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 23/06/2026It's essentially Rabelais' Gargantua updated for the junk food days. 010
Gareth Thomas @gareththomas.bsky.social · 23/06/2026Has there been a change in the #BBCNews editorial stance, or is Sally Nugent going to be summoned before Robbie Gibb and pals for gross misconduct? 020
