I'm a regular critic of the BBC's BBC News (UK) & BBC Politics output, & I see memes like the one below often - I've used them myself. But facts matter, & you should know that John Toker retired as the UK Govt Cabinet Office's Director of Communications for Security back in 2013.

Hedge-funder Paul Marshall, co-owner of GB "News", now wants to buy The Telegraph & The Spectator - which faciltates climate science scepticism & regularly features Charles Moore attacking the National Trust! Talk about 'hidden agendas'! Irony is dead! x.com/docrussjackson…

The Taxpayer's Alliance used to push this daft story every year, as if councils should sell off their museum collections. Bizarrely, the BBC is now pushing the same story, and of course quotes the Taxpayer's Alliance.

*Talks at length* about something 'we can't talk about' - like every right-wing newspaper & Govt has done repeatedly for the last 30 years. If discussing "black on black" crime isn't racist, then why does no-one EVER discuss "white on white" crime? "Man on man" crime anyone? 🤡

In 1968, Sidney Poitier was at a press conference at the height of his career. He made it very clear how he felt about the press. Funny that I had to find this on a discarded film reel with 1000s of books, Microfiche and films. Now you can see it.

Why would the BBC, supposedly characterised by 'IMPARTIAL PUBLIC SERVICE' journalism: 1 "Investigate" the value of BCC's artworks? 2 Frame the story in a highly partisan manner? 3 Seek comment from an ideologically extreme opaquely-funded #TuftonStreet lobbying group - AGAIN?

The relentless attacks on Councils & much-loved British institutions like our Universities, the BBC RNLI @RSPB National Trust etc is part of a wider global strategy to destroy the public sector, progressive organisations & resistance to climate change, & privatise EVERYTHING.

Another recent example of how these shady bastards exploit even disabled children to further their reactionary objectives & further divide Britain & its people, while hoarding already unimaginable wealth & power. I'm not alone in being fucking sick of it. x.com/docrussjackson…

GB "News" isn't a news channel: it's a billionaire-funded propaganda machine which serves the interests of fossil fuel corporations & billionaires by systematically undermining trust in experts & institutions, dividing voters & clearing the way for oligarchy to replace democracy.

GB News Fuck off with your divisive shit-stirring ideologically extreme billionaire-funded right-wing free-market #propaganda. Here's a transcript of EXACTLY what the abhorrent "anti-elite" privately educated multimillionaire wanker Benyamin Naeem Habib said: x.com/docrussjackson…

Dr. Bendor Grosvenor 🇺🇦 Indeed. The BBC should ask 'who funds #55TuftonStreet, & other journalists should ask why BBC News (UK) & BBC Politics shows constantly platform its opaquely funded shadowy lobbyists. x.com/docrussjackson…
