Last night I went to the theatre in London with my wife. At least 50% of the audience was international. Walking back to the tube we passed groups of people, laughing, drinking, some singing We were not attacked, threatened, no knives seen. Not sure which London Farage goes to.

Just seen a headline in one of the papers, saying Boris Johnson is about to publish his memoirs. A good time to remember this superb letter written during the pandemic.

It feels today that Farage and Reform are finally getting just a little bit of scrutiny. And immediately falling apart. This needs to continue. Farage's taxes smell nasty.

Tice: I have never met Nathan Gill and he has nothing to do with Reform. Well ok then

So the patronising journalist league wading into the Prime Minister and Chief of staff for earning £165k and £175k. Kay Burley £500,000 Laura Kuenssberg £309,999 Chris Mason £229,000 Nick Robinson £279,999 ....the list goes on but you get the point. Hypocrisy writ large

Tice: "Most of the EU is in recession" #bbcqt Fact: Not a single country in the EU is in recession. Reform in a nutshell.

The BBC did an excellent undercover investigation into racism and misogyny in the Met Police. Perhaps similar effort could be put into exposing Reform's Russian connections? #BBCNews

Matt Hancock just explained his social distancing breach in the Commons was because he is human. Is there any supporting evidence for this?

When the BBC made this appointment it was no accident. You can see the shift in reporting since it was made. BBC News is GB News lite. #BBCNews

Well done Channel 4. Now, BBC, Sky...... no of course not. This is serious at any time, but especially with Russia probing European security. It doesn't stop with Nathan Gill - follow the trail.

The Reform UK party's former leader in Wales - Nathan Gill - has pleaded guilty to eight counts of bribery relating to pro-Russia statements he made in the European Parliament, as well as newspaper opinion pieces.

BBC giving Tice a platform on Kuenssberg after giving Oakeshott a platform on BBCQT. They do know they can invite people from other families and who are not fascist don't they?

BBC and Sky are going to great lengths to avoid pinning the Afghan data breach on the Tory government. Just saying "the government" rather than specifying which party. This was a Tory government mess -again.

BBC Panorama should make a new show on Trump (as an apology). It should show exactly what he said, when he said it, the words used, video coverage, social media posts. All of them. There is no need to edit anything - it is all there.
