BBC pushing fighting each other instead of real enemies.

In other words, complete control of the media not controlled by Reform.

Renewal for the rich, increasing poverty awaiting the majority. A deliberate redistribution of money towards the already rich.

To keep their wealthy backers from going to Farage.

You misunderstand. The headline will cost millions of pensioners votes, not any explanation. He just lost the next election.

What good?

Keeping pensioners in poverty? Not a good look.

Luckily, singing hymns and saying prayers turns millions of children away from religion in our country.

Before Farage takes over, please.

My area only has right-wing propaganda local papers, so no loss. I liked having local news, but not like that.

BBC racist propaganda at work.

Propaganda works. Unfortunately.

They are the new Blackshirts, but without the courage to show their faces.

The BBC made Farage and Reform. Puzzling how they could go much further, except maybe a suitable logo?

Phil Gundy @philg42.bsky.social · 27/08/2026
They really hate ordinary people, don't they? Unbelievable that anyone would vote for such people.

BBC news was never impartial. It then moved into pushing right wing propaganda.

Phil Gundy @philg42.bsky.social · 18/08/2026
The media love this. Publicity and increased readership while they hound someone to death Even more afterwards. Nothing will change.

Phil Gundy @philg42.bsky.social · 18/08/2026
As if the law applies to such people.

It shows how powerful propaganda really is. The world is heading towards a humanity-ending disaster and we are doing nothing about it.

It was making so much noise that I couldn't read it.

Just had a new phone. I've had to play with it to learn the differences to my old one. Not the same level as Einstein, but apt.

Phil Gundy @philg42.bsky.social · 14/08/2026
Play is essential to learning for young people, but also throughout people's lives.

They are vile people who would vote for any fascist. I don't think there is any force in the world which could convince me to ever visit such a place. People make a place, unfortunately.

Plans would mean politicians not lost in politics. Not going to happen any time soon. Maybe when time has run out?

The Plowden Report was a big part of my initial training, along with RoSLA.

British media obsession. The only thing that counts, apparently.

The part of the press still Tory would love to run with this, but then they remember Johnson.

Her politics and policies were vile, but I wouldn't wish such a violent death on anyone.

Poverty and austerity. Both destroy the economy.

Phil Gundy @philg42.bsky.social · 09/07/2026
How can anyone vote for such vile people?

Keep people poor ruins the economy.

There are no checks and balances when it comes to right wing politicians. The media go all out if any other politicians do something wrong. Otherwise nothing.

Easy to read as you get older. You can change text size and font for ease of reading. Easy to read in sunlight and at night. Easy to hold.

Teachers used to be creative professionals. They still could be but are rarely given the chance.

I was a bit underwhelmed when I saw it on a holiday in France, to be honest.

Get rid of SATs and Ofsted would be a start, but politicians are never going to give up control.

We have a most undemocratic media, which is why we are in such trouble.

I hope this isn't the thin end of the wedge, but I don't hold out much hope for the future of our country.

The media keep it boiling. Their racism wins votes.

Knife amnesty, replacing them with guns when they hand them in?

Guess who reads daily papers and watches BBC news?

Propaganda not balance.

They should understand the nature of hard right propaganda. It works. Westminster should be working to change people's perception rather than respond as they are.

The powers that be want a trained population not an educated one. Tight control is necessary to achieve this.
