With a bit of luck, the BBC in its present form will wither. However, its leftie producers and journos will be ever present somewhere.

Re: BBC burying news, never ?

Why did you bother to say that, Andrew? There is mileage in many news items and the Ali hypocrisy is a symptom of wider hypocrisies among the politicians in the governing party. Particularly see Miliband for details.

Are you saying that 'order order' is not impartial and up to date news source?? You'll be saying GB News is biased next.

Anyway back to the main thrust of the order order article.

As a neutral, I can see that this kind of resignation is too common to be newsworthy for two days in a row, even in the quiet news months of August.

Must admit, I wondered at first if he'd spotted a pedalo!

In your opinion. But it's there to be exploited and to further embarrass this wretched government.

It is awful that there is no party capable of taking power from Labour right now. We seem thus consigned to suffer this awful government and our only hope is that they change course - which their ideology won't allow.

... and that's on top of the 18 MPs who blackmail Starmer's lot into bad decisions.

The BBC don't report that.

Probably because they, like most reputable news organisations, tend not to report paranoid fantasies...

Given the problems they have with "stars" that we hear I really wonder what really is going on at this organisation

Re: BBC burying news, never ?

BBC news, just watch the first 2 minutes for the headlines.

If you then want the 'finer details' stay tuned for reports from 'on the spot' reporters speaking in either a squeeky/scratchy voice or a dull flat monotone.

Studio fillers are reporters telling you what you probably already know, often with the inclusion of a video feed from an 'expert' using his/her laptop camera (with warbling microphone) sitting in their spare bedroom in the depths of Surrey.

As for the BBC news website . . . it's like TikTok

What do you think about BBC news in terms of its objectivity and impartiality?
