@NoneTaken57 It does, often on bulletins only an hour apart. Same bbc, completely different news selection priorities, but both opaque. #r4today

NEETS can read graphs. I’m speculating that many have understood the inevitable climate disaster that begins to engulf us. Many will have their lives cut short. Why spend precious time doing the bidding of others and even contributing to this disaster? #r4today #neets #futility

The BBC World Service are reporting this Israeli strike on a Gaza hospital. The Today Programme decide not to bother. Why not?

Lewis Hamilton: "I'm here with the Egyptian Red Crescent as they load these boxes containing aid they have prepared to send to Gaza. They went to the Rafah border today, accompanied by their wonderful volunteers. They have more than 70,000 volunteers across Egypt, and over 2,000 people here volunteer every day to make sure these boxes are ready and packed as well as possible. They're fully ready to be
deployed. So we really need to put pressure on Israel to
reopen the crossing from the Palestinian side, because not enough trucks are getting through each day."

"The people in Gaza and Palestine are in such urgent need that they could hardly need this aid more than they do right now, so we really must apply pressure.
And work together to ensure this aid gets there. There is a great deal of it, and this center is just one of several different sites that also contain such wonderful supplies, full of food, medicine, and things that individuals and families in Palestine really need."

The Chinese have denied accusations of spying as ‘baseless’. Well they would wouldn’t they? Why even mention this? #r4today

One tiny figure, a strip of sand, a sky filling most of the canvas. Heinrich von Kleist wrote that looking at it felt as if one's eyelids had been cut away. Friedrich painted out details he had already added.

@BriefcaseMike @BBCr4today I’d speculate that the US pays for the trip, top billing in our news and a soft power bargain. #r4today #specialrelationship #vassalstate

@FerrariF1FRA There was talk of Leclerc’s penalty being reduced because Hamilton also left the track. Nobody mentions that Hamilton subsequently made the corner and gained no advantage unlike Leclerc.

Also turn down the radio if you have no interest in shiny floor tv shows, and leave it turned down. 🙄#r4today #underwhelming

I inherited a collection of frames from my uncle John. Happily one of them fits this old #acrylic of mine from 2009. ‘Winter sun on Bear Crag’ #Cumbria. 18x16” #painting

@apunkarchive Youthful impressionability likely also a factor. We were boys buying records made by men. Other way around now.

Zack Polanski would doubtless have loved to win the Holborn by-election. He managed to triple the Greens' share of the vote, in a difficult seat for the party and in the midst of Labour's short Burnham honeymoon.

Yet the media reaction is as one: shouldn't Polanski resign? The question isn't a question at all. It's a prompt your brain is supposed to interpret as proof he's failed, he's damaging the party, he needs to be replaced.

It's intended to bypass the reality that Polanski has turned the party's fortunes around in terms of vote share and MPs, that the Greens are now a major insurgent force in UK politics, that he helped drive Starmer out of office and is driving Burnham further left than either Burnham or the Blairite Labour bureaucracy are inclined to go to win back the left.

The sanctions against Israel's illegal settlements happened because of the Polanski-led Greens, not because Labour suddenly saw the light – after three years of conspiring in a genocide.

The Green surge under Polanski is also driving the break-up of the cosy old two-party closed shop that has overseen the wrecking of Britain's industrial base and the economy's dependency on a financial sector whose only policy is ever-deepening austerity for you and me.

Those are the reasons the political and media class want Polanski gone. And they will keep trying to short-circuit your brain into thinking that that would be good for the country rather than just for them.

King Charles inherited £650m tax free, gets £354m a year tax free from the tax payer including £132m personal spending money and has an estate worth £22bn that’s never taxed.

Like if he needs a pay cut.
RT if you want the Monarchy gone.
