Just now on @BBCr4today, @amolrajan & @bbcnickrobinson were interviewing CEO of @GBNEWS, Angelos Frangopoulos.

Rajan asked: “you don’t really care about what Ofcom say, do you?” Frangopoulos said his channel does respect @Ofcom. You could clearly hear the snobby, sneering sniggers in the background from the BBC studio.

The @BBC really has no authority to portray itself as a paragon of virtue.

• Martin Bashir who forged bank statements to secure interview with Princess Diana in 1995 - he was later appointed Religion Editor.

• BBC colluded with South Yorkshire Police to fly a helicopter above Sir Cliff Richard’s home while it was searched in connection to allegations of sexual abuse. BBC refused to apologise.

Manufacturing matters. With an annual output of £224 billion, the UK has leapfrogged France and is now the EIGHTH largest manufacturer in the world.

There has never been a more important time to support and promote the vital sector which employs 2.6 million people. Today is National Manufacturing Day and British manufacturers are opening their doors as part of a UK-wide Open House.

The aim of Make UK's National Manufacturing Day is to encourage all age groups - from school leavers to more experienced workers - to consider careers in manufacturing. #STEM #UKmfg

Seeing how some on the left have reacted to what happened on GB News has been very revealing.

Today, we've seen high profile Labour MPs, Ex PMs and mainstream journalists calling for the entire station to be shut down and/or presenters removed permanently.

I honestly find their thirst for censorship utterly terrifying. I dread to think what this country will be like if Labour get elected.

While everyone is throwing Laurence Fox under the bus for crass comments last night:

Does anyone remember last year, when Ava said women are entitled to weaponise false rape accusations to terrify men, and implied my friends and I are rapists-in-waiting?

Almost a million views on YouTube. Millions of views on TikTok

Nobody called for her head

The outrage only goes one way

This is because Ofcom compliance makes being the Leftist voice on TV stations willing to platform anti-Progressive views a reliable paying gig

It's also because "Woke" ragebait drives clicks and engagement

The incentive structures cut in Ava's favour, and not Laurence's, when she makes reprehensible comments -- even on "anti-Woke" networks

She gets a free pass, whereas Fox does not

BOOM! Airbus plans to create more than 1,100 jobs in Britain, increasing the world's biggest producer of commercial airliners' 11,500-strong UK workforce by almost 10%.

The jobs announcement comes as figures show Airbus contributed £7 billion to the UK economy last year, supported 79,000 jobs in the wider aerospace and defence sectors, and spent almost £4 billion with British suppliers.

Airbus recently pledged to open Britain’s first new helicopter factory in decades, creating hundreds of jobs and generating billions of pounds of export revenue, if the MoD chooses it to build a new generation of helicopters to replace the UK’s ageing fleet of Pumas.

If successful with its tender, Airbus plans to build a new helicopter production line at its vast wing manufacturing plant in Broughton which would become the sole Airbus site for the production of H175M military helicopters around the world. #UKmfg

This is appalling. I’m utterly sick and tired of this clowning around. It’s pathetic, unprofessional and degrading. I’d be ashamed if I was still serving. There are good, conscientious police officers out there, and then there are these fools.

[Patricia🇬🇧 @Patricia344130]

Stupid, thick, pathetic, lefty students at Woke Bristol University have banned the army from hosting a stall which would have given them experience of military life alongside their studies.

But they’ll expect the military to defend their freedom.

Morons.

This is hilarious. It’s like watching somebody receiving a community note in person.

[Laurence Fox @LozzaFox]

I am done with the elite class dreaming up ideas to save the planet whilst they lounge on super yachts, or recline in private planes.

I am done with politicians inventing insane laws to stop us accessing information about how utterly crap they are in the name of “online safety.”

I am done with being told when I can turn my boiler on and for how long, because of a confected climate crisis.

They are imposing rules on you they would never remotely consider following themselves.

The political class are the bastards that get their servants to wake up at 6am to nick the best Sun loungers by the pool.

It’s time to tell them where to go. Where to go with their climate nonsense. Where to go with their energy nonsense. Where to go with their information control. That free speech belongs to everyone, not just the self appointed, who will say the right thing just to get a job in hopelessly woke private sector, upon being rightly removed by an electorate they have failed time and time again.

I am so tired of being told.

That women have penises.

Can we get these for 🇬🇧 UK please 🤣🤣🤣🤣

RESHORING: For the first time in more than 50 years, Britten-Norman — the UK's only sovereign commercial aircraft manufacturer — will build its iconic Islander in Britain after transferring production from Eastern Europe to its historic home in Bembridge on the Isle of Wight.

To support the reshoring programme, Isle of Wight MP Bob Seely officially opened the British firm's new production line (images) as it prepares to quadruple output over the coming years.

Chief Executive of Britten-Norman, William Hynett, said: “We are immensely proud to bring production back to the UK, where our manufacturing story began nearly seven decades ago.

"This move underlines our dedication to the highest standards of quality, innovation, and the resurgence of British aerospace manufacturing." #UKmfg
