For all their their faults the BBC do employ great journos such as @NickyAACampbell. He's i/v'ed me twice, he was always fair.
None so than silencing a niqab wearing Muslim woman, who he tears apart limb from limb, exposing Islamic hypocrisy & misogyny.
He lets her escape.
To the point and nicely animated explainer of how our food system impacts the planet, and what we can do to make more room for nature.

The absurd irony of all this. Carsley is this totally solid citizen, does charity work, coaches amateurs and is pretty much exemplary in good-person community values. But yes, let’s judge him on singing a song. If that’s your definition of a “good Englishman” it is worth nothing
These 2 Plymouth rioters have been convicted of 209 previous offences + they told the police they were rioting because immigrants cost the taxpayer too much money.
Judge Linford made them work out how much their offending had cost Britain's taxpayers over the last 38 years.👇🏻
Judge Menary KC: “The people doing this weren’t exercising some right to freedom of expression, they were doing it to exploit the anguish of others... as an excuse for vandalism & intimidation... they're criminals... & decent people were left to clean up their mess.”
“Instead of being mad at the people at the top, we’ve been tricked into being mad at each other.” – Robert Reich explains why we see so much rage on airplanes these days
This isn't helpful, but throughout British history mobs have rioted, set fire to police stations, perceived foreigners as troublemakers, acted in a mob.
We ignore history because we like to believe we are better now. We are not. It's the same.
And globally, humans are terrible.
You can be offended by a parody of da Vinci’s Last Supper because you revere da Vinci. But if you’re offended because it mocks Christianity, that’s a bit silly because it isn’t actually the Last Supper, it’s a painting, not a fucking selfie.
Ronaldo insists on turning these games into his own soap opera. It’s become worse as his powers have waned. Exercising influence in anyway he can. Must be tiresome for teammates? No doubt he’ll score the winner 🥴
Really cheap of the BBC to select the question.
Why not education? Why not climate change? Why not defence? Why not Gaza or another aspect of foreign affairs?
Sunak and Starmer are not Trump and Biden.
