As ever, thorough and incisive. I wonder why The Economist chose to publish the graph and what they hoped to achieve? #Reform
Oh boy, are the Right excited by this graph recently published by The Economist! And of course none of them has bothered to read the article itself (TBF, it is behind a paywall!). So as always, let's add a little context and explain why these kinds of comparisons are so problematic 🧵1/25

One day I hope to see a similar apology from the BBC. Sadly, that day will not be anytime soon while GB News and other hard right political alumni continue to control the output of BBC News. #r4today
As in Hungary, the authoritarian regime in Serbia is being dismantled . “For years, we failed to fulfill our duty. We kept silent, turned a blind eye, reported events one-sidedly, and failed to ask the necessary questions. For that, we owe our viewers an apology,” news anchor Goran Eror said.

It really is about time they screened the People's Emergency Briefing in the village hall, if it's still standing. Ambridge got the bad weather even before the rest of us . #TheArchers @nebriefing.bsky.social

Me too Sir Michael. And a few other things too.
Things that currently annoy me: -Celebrity Traitors (especially that chap called Bash. What sort of bloody name is Bash???) -The advert with the bloke in the bath scrubbing his conkers & happily going on about being cremated -Vinted -Bloody fireworks -Throuples -‘Leisurewear.’ 😡
Waiting for #TheDailyMail, and others, to apologise for their obsessive and nasty comments. Guessing all #TheFirm knew about this since 2019, but they let the commentary continue.
Let me get this right… the father that everyone berated #meghan for disowning and keeping away from her children is a paedophile. Waiting for Good Morning Britain to have him back on crying his pedo tears

It’s a brilliant capture of all village WhatsApp groups everywhere. Excellent #TheArchers
Hello new followers! I've removed the paywall from this piece, which is a chapter from my novel Villager, told entirely in the form of an online village message board. If you like it, you'll probably like the book. If you don't, you probably won't... tomcox.substack.com/p/the-villag...
