I don't recall anyone resigning over the endless right wing think tank guests (never identified as such) or the endless shoehorning of Farage/Reform/Tice and their LITERALLY RUSSIAN agenda into every show. But somehow marrow granpa got this, and that was fine:

This is an excellent rebuttal of the Policy Exchange paper that tried to cast doubt on whether leaving the ECHR would (unless Ireland agreed) be in breach of the UK’s binding obligations to Ireland under the Good Friday Agreement.

"I understand it is normally the role of opposition leaders to jump up and down and call for resignations – as we’ve seen plenty of from the Conservatives already.

Obviously if the ethics advisor says Angela Rayner has broken the rules, her position may well become untenable.

But as a parent of a disabled child, I know the thing my wife and I worry most about is our son’s care after we have gone, so I can completely understand and trust that the deputy prime minister was thinking about the same thing here.

Perhaps now is a good time to talk about how we look after disabled people and how we can build a more caring country."

Farage dodged parliament, went to the US, slagged off the UK, lied to Congress, grifted for donations and hoped to persuade the US to punish us for the Online Safety Act. And got his arse handed back to him. You’d think our ‘patriotic’ media would go nuts. But no. Some quiet mumbling. Beyond feeble.

OK there's a LOT wrong with this framing. Which viewers, exactly, were stunned? Because none are mentioned in the piece. And how, exactly, did her "interrupt" an interview WITH HIMSELF? Can we stop framing every mention of the genocide in Gaza as controversial, and start treating it like fact?
