Rishi Sunak has just announced to every criminal gang in Europe: Come to Britain to set up your modern slavery racket. Your victims will have no rights and no protections from us. We will turn a blind eye.

Has the @bbc actually analysed Gary Lineker’s tweet? Because it is factually accurate. A lot of the tropes used now by Govt: ‘invasion’, ‘menace’ etc, are pretty similar to those used by nationalist parties in 1930s Germany. Why no analysis? Are BBC history presenters muted too?

To say that the European Court of Human Rights is at odds with British values… …shows a complete ignorance of British values. The ECHR was build on British values. We, the Brits, designed it. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

As commentators on MOTD, we have decided to step down from tomorrow night’s broadcast. We are comforted that football fans who want to watch their teams should still be able to do so, as management can use World Feed commentary if they wish.

Worth noting that this is, of course, another almighty mess that leads directly to Boris Johnson and his utter unfitness for office. It’s impossible not to see his elevation of the obviously unsuitable Richard Sharp to BBC chairman as his reward for facilitating an enormous loan.

Lineker is Freelance but here's the BBC reply to a complaint about Chris Packham, also Freelance

Worth remembering that very right-wing oligarchs own The Times, The Sun, The Mail, The Telegraph (& the Sunday editions), the Spectator, GBeebies, Talk TV & the Conservative Party. The Express pursues their agenda for financial reasons. And they're all terrified of Gary Lineker.

@ScottBentonMP Ah Scotty boy, you’ve taken one hell of a beating here. You complete halfwit. #TheWhirlWindIsInTheThornTree

For those trying to claim the Gary Lineker saga is all to do with BBC impartiality. Bollocks. Gary Neville works for commercial TV and draws the same criticism from the same people whenever he makes a comment they don’t like. It’s right wing cancel culture.

Andrew Bridgen I was informed yesterday that in 1972 a crack commando team was sent to prison for a crime they did not commit. The conspiracies run deep, Andrew. Deep.

Fascist @ScottBentonMP enjoys moving pictures. Doubtful he understood them though.

eg the windrush scandal

Do you remember those drug free towns & cities before small boats started arriving 4 yrs ago? Pick a vulnerable group and/or a minority and blame them for your Govt’s failures It’s a lie, built upon a lie, so police chiefs tell me

The population of UK is around 65 million. There are not hundreds of millions trying to come to UK. The man is an idiot.

13 years in power, 5 Prime Ministers, almost all of the print & commercial broadcast media cheerleading for them, 4 general election victories, 80 seat majority at the last one, Brexit ‘victory’ etc etc. And here’s the Daily Mail’s Florida correspondent, Richard Littlejohn…

Only if you had no honour

Farewell, yon corrupt mutant potato. We shall not forget, nor forgive, until the end of your days and then, frankly, never after that. #BorisJohnson

Coward.

I just wanted to send this farewell message to all Manchester United supporters. I would like to express my unwavering gratitude and appreciation for the love from the last 12 years. We’ve achieved a lot since my dear Sir Alex Ferguson brought me to this club. I took incredible
