Hope the BBC won’t pay off Trump, but if they do for heaven’s sake do it via commercial arm @bbcstudios and explain beforehand this is to avoid using Licence payers’ money. @BBC @BBCNews @BBCWorld It’d be a worse nightmare otherwise!

I would not care to be the editor who made the call to lump together some belated recollections of inappropriate emails to colleagues with a story that originated in a claim of criminal behaviour - a claim which the police can't stand up.

So, no illegality, and the person carefully not named by @TheSun is in hospital being treated for serious mental health issues. @TheSun must be so proud. Tossers. #bbcpresenter #BBCPresenterScandal #bbc #TheSun

I see @bbclaurak is wearing her super-soft kid gloves again while “interviewing” @RishiSunak on #BBC. Maybe one day we’ll hear a difficult question from her when chatting with a #Tory . Chance: <1%.

Hey @BBCNews please stop captioning astronomers interviewed about today’s asteroid passing Earth as “astrologers”!!! (BBC1 1pm news) I thought even your arts graduates had got this one sorted these days! #bbc #GetADictionary #bbcnews

[GranSez @GranSez]

Let’s be clear: the #MOTD fiasco and destruction of @BBCNews Channel are part of deliberate policy of entryism by #Tories to damage #BBC so even its natural supporters will abandon it. Tory BBC Chair Richard Sharp & Tory Dir.Gen. Tim Davie are doing what Tory backbenchers can’t.

[GranSez @GranSez]

‘Love’ the beautiful soft kid gloves @bbclaurak is wearing while interviewing @JamesCleverly about BBC Chairman appointment - compare with the roasting he got from @SophyRidgeSky (“how convenient”) 10 mins earlier! BBC = Tory mouthpiece? #bbclaurak

[GranSez @GranSez]

Well done @ChrisMasonBBC on your opening package for the Six this evening. Just the right tone! 👍👍👍

[GranSez @GranSez]

Excellent ruling. https://t.co/6ZP2xpfiGz Current let-it-rip policy is still killing elderly & vulnerable early at rate of 20,000+ a year, which is morally bankrupt too.

[GranSez @GranSez]

@BBCFergusWalsh Why were 651 Covid deaths reported on the https://t.co/srvRPrBa6l dashboard today with no explanation? It’s the highest daily number since the dark days of early 2021. If it’s just catching up previously missed data, why not say so? Or dumping bad news at Easter?

[GranSez @GranSez]

Did we hear @RachelReevesMP try out the next @UKLabour election slogan today? “You can no longer afford the Conservatives.”
Could be a winner! @TimesRadio @BBCNews @bbclaurak @BBCPolitics @adamfleming

[GranSez @GranSez]

Brazilian electricians everywhere breathe a sigh of relief. https://t.co/KhAFLPMjfZ Bye bye Cressida Dick, you won’t be missed. #cressidadick RIP Jean Charles de Menezes you won’t be forgotten #JeanCharlesdeMenezes

[GranSez @GranSez]

So sad @TimesRadio have moved from their sponsorship-messages-only model which distinguished them from competitors, to running adverts (e.g. Kuoni, Ocado this morning) like all the rest. Alas I may return to @LBC though I’ve much preferred ad-free @TimesRadio until now.

[GranSez @GranSez]

Hey @MattChorley you just did a really bad interview with @dgurdasani1 on @TimesRadio It was clear what the epidemiologist was trying to say, you just appeared not to want to hear it. The opposite of “public service broadcasting” in a public health crisis. Shame.

[GranSez @GranSez]

Hey @fia you have lost me as a viewer of #FormulaOne for ever, as @MercedesAMGF1 are not pursuing their appeal about #AbuDhabiGP I’m sure I won’t be the only one. Cheating destroys sport, and broken sport is not entertainment. Never, ever, watching again. #FIAPrizeFixing2021

[GranSez @GranSez]

. @MercedesAMGF1 @LewisHamilton - please appeal the dismissal of your protest. I was so disgusted by the misapplication of race rules yesterday that if you don’t go all the way (inc. legal challenge) I will give up watching #Formula1 #FormulaOne #AbuDhabiGrandPrix #AbuDhabiGP

[GranSez @GranSez]

Hey @adamfleming despite your odd comments last wk about #downingstreetparty being 1-day story, it’s still running. @Dominic2306 noticed media staff involvement, and their attempts to ignore story seem super-hypocritical as @BethRigby was already banned from @SkyNews for similar

[GranSez @GranSez]

Hi @adamfleming interesting to see you on @BBCNews this morning saying you don’t think the Downing St Xmas Party story will run and run even if it’s true. Think you may have misjudged mood of country about govt hypocrisy. Unless media won’t pursue cos they were in attendance?

[GranSez @GranSez]

Great @KayBurley is pursuing the Lat Flow/PCR Covid test discrepancies on @SkyNews but her guest’s explanation was wrong: false positive Lat Flows would show up nationally but this is a regional phenomenon largely in SW England. Problems with PCR testing here is more likely.

[GranSez @GranSez]

@RP131 Hi Richard, my local (Gloucestershire & Cheltenham) Covid cases in the https://t.co/Of3PiOfiTg dashboard are all over the place. 7-day average last week dropped faster than Jan lockdown, now zooming up again! Any ideas why?
