Dear BBC News, as a nephew of BBC conflict film journalist John Jockel, in his name, please restart serious news journalism. Thanks, Chris Jockel #bbcnews
Dear @BBCNews people are more concerned with today’s judgment that Matt Hancock & the government have broken the law & less about people losing titles. Your home page leads with Harry & Meghan , you are sidelining a huge story of corruption that affects us all .
Here's an extract from my new book Betrayal, about how Russian spies infiltrated Nigel Farage's party. It tells the inside story of Nathan Gill, a former UKIP MEP, now in jail, who accepted £££ in bribes to make pro-Russian speeches. Thanks @thenerve_news https://t.co/f0WLTiGaTR
@CW_codesterz@MichaelRosenYes@WrenCobb Hi Cody. Britain is not a nation. Anything your imaging as a British Nation is probably less than 200 years old and I'd suggest the ancestral Welsh, Irish, Scots, Cornish and others inc have never really wanted to be in your British Nation.
We currently have the U.K. Prime minister and Home Secretary, both of immigrant heritage, taking time out of their schedules to support an established racist on social media (anyone who questions that description, please listen to his radio interview with @mrjamesob a few years back where he was literally exposed as such) over his account being closed down by a highly exclusive bank. They have apparently done so in the name of “free speech”. Can you imagine the PM or Cruella intervening, commenting or suggesting a clampdown on banks if you or I, or even a “politically outspoken” celebrity like Gary Lineker, were refused an account with a bank that is openly highly selective about its clientele? So why are they getting involved to support this vile man? Perhaps we should consider how much of the current govt’s xenophobic rhetoric plays to exactly the same mentality that gave the reviled far right NF initials of the 70’s a new lease of life through one hateful man.
😲 I remember when I first heard about 'the Rwanda policy': my jaw literally dropped
😰 I couldn't believe it was real
😡 But last night in The Lords Labour failed to block it
🤔 What is the point of an Opposition that won't oppose something so odious and immoral?
There's still time to make a difference to our impact on the climate, says @ChrisGPackham. "As a conscious organism, precipitating that type of event isn't conscionable from my perspective." Watch the full interview: https://t.co/oGirdBGmPg
@JujuliaGrace@CarolineLucas Labour is relying on First Past The Vote to force progressive voters to vote Labour to defeat the Tories. They know that under our archaic voting system if people vote Green/Lib Dem it risks splitting the vote. We need #PR so our vote isn’t taken for granted.

An unprecedented planetary emergency. And our "leaders" are still not telling the truth about what it means & what needs to be done to keep our planet habitable.

Staggering that #Starmer’s Labour wouldn’t even lift the 2 child cap on child benefit. Unspecified “reforms” are no substitute for urgently needed public investment. And if he doesn’t want to borrow, he could levy wealth tax on super rich - there’s no hope here #BBCLauraK
