What is the BBC's justification for maintaining this level of coverage of Reform now it has slipped into third place?

Nigel Farage has called Andy Burnham “a liar” after the PM said he had been told Russia interfered in the 2016 Brexit referendum. As usual Farage is talking boll**** Get the actual FACTS here👇 youtu.be/uVRwW2VdXPE?...

🧵 As front-page headlines go, this has to be one of the most misleading I've seen in a long time It's an out-and-out lie But notice the trick they use to get away with it...👀 *They're* not lying - they're just quoting someone else who is👍🏻 In this case, the leader of the opposition🙄 1/33

If you've got a child calling for people to drown I'd suggest that might be a matter for social services. Clearly that child has been radicalised

Excellent thread!

Who else finds it infuriating to stand for minutes at the self-checkout in #Morrisons waiting for the one lethargic staff member to wander over so you can ask for a plastic (or paper) bag. Such an absurd system.

Given her support and love for and to the trans community I felt it was a poor choice for the BBC News to quote Rowling’s tribute to Dolly Parton.

Just remembered the Dolly Parton bus.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social It’s a brave talk radio host who incentivises callers to bring beavers into the conversation. 😉

One of the first "outrageous" claims I saw as Jason Arday's media hounding unfolded was that he ran 30 marathons in 35 days! Wow! What a thing to claim! And the newspapers all suggested there was no evidence he actually did it. Well, they clearly didn't look very hard 🙄 🧵 1/26

This is not misinformation. That's what I normally cover - something out of context, an opinion quoted as fact, or a deliberate misinterpretation... This is none of those. This is full-on disinformation. Because that is NOT from the Express. It is entirely fake😱 🧵 1/10

@london.gov.uk should be so proud of this. Under massive objections he stuck to his vision and the results are brilliant 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I came first in the Clacton by-election! Of the candidates who bothered to turn up for the results. Here is my victory speech!

I don’t pretend to understand British politics, but apparently this Count Binface guy was a joke candidate for Parliament who got beat by another joke candidate. Do I have that right?

There's a very strong argument that Count Binface is now a more relevant and popular figure in British politics than Liz Truss.

📍 Clacton - It's not actually an 'invasion', is it? #UK #immigration #Farage #racism #taxes Via www.instagram.com/p/Dbxfs8oD1p...

With news floating across the pond from #Clacton a new candidate for the 2028 presidency is announced

Remember! Never look at The Sun; in fact, never look at any Murdoch or Right Wing paper

It is genuinely #BinDay tomorrow. 🤞🏻

Nice to see @countbinface.bsky.social having a well earned break in the sun ahead of the Clacton election

skywriter.blue/@monkemma.bs... The latest excellent debunk thread from @monkemma.bsky.social unrolled onto a single page.

Do you want to hazard a guess at what this “jaw-dropping” list of freebies included? What luxuries asylum seekers might be being given “for free” in Thetford? Xboxes? Plasma TVs? iPhones? Ferraris? Let's take a look👀 🧵 1/22

Over my years, several people I know (who I guess weren’t big fans of maths) have questioned the point of learning Pythagoras’ theorem at school, so I’d like to to put on record that I’ve just used it for a very practical purpose that also involves cardboard and scissors! #maths #math #Pythagoras

This strikes me as sounding like the opening plot of a sci-fi disaster movie. The action continues, as previously undetected alien inhabitants of the Moon misinterpret the impact and launch all out war on their planetary neighbour. 😱 www.theguardian.com/science/2026...

Under a Binface government, anyone who doesn’t accept human-made climate change as fact will be sent back to school, from Year 1 right the way to A Levels, to see if anything goes in the second time round. #VoteBinface

Farage’s narcissism has handed Clacton a once in a century chance to make history: A chance to establish itself as a beacon of British good sense, humour and democracy by electing Count Binface. The World and his wife know who Farage is. Clacton voters will be derided forever if they reelect Farage.

There are actually a number of things to like here, but number 5 should absolutely be implemented ( @andyburnham.bsky.social )

The bizarre thing about this Clacton election is that it is highly likely that the lives of the people of Clacton would improve if @countbinface.bsky.social was returned. I genuinely believe that he would be a far more effective MP than the guy that resigned to avoid scrutiny.

www.theguardian.com/science/2026... Nooooooooooooooooo!!

Unexpectedly hugely sad to hear Bill Oddie has died. A brilliant songwriter, this one is a psychpop gem, shades of The Move and the Manfredd’s Up The Junction and catchy as hell. youtu.be/xYVBnizAwEE?...

@andyburnham.bsky.social There are many important things on your plate but the fact that the richest man on the planet behaves in this way is a direct threat to world democracy. More focus is needed to prevent what he is trying to achieve.

Gary Lineker should replace Infanti as the head of FIFA

Cynical, scheming, boring and then - finally, inevitably - violent. Properly shameful operation which shouldn't be whitewashed by being called 'streetwise'.

Awful to see a team of sore losers too. Disgraceful and sad.

Only one team interested in playing football tonight. Thank goodness playing football won. Well done Spain, the only team that deserved to win tonight.

Yikes! The new ChatGPT voice sounds drunk, like she’s had too many glasses of Prosecco for lunch.

Is it any wonder our political landscape is in such a state where large parts of the press and dishonourable politicians can distort the truth for their own gains like this? Great work once again from @monkemma.bsky.social skywriter.blue/@monkemma.bs...

Unsurprisingly, a number of people asked me to look at this story doing the rounds on all the right-wing media 🧐 So let's take a look at who is exempt from the ban and why, and when this "two-tier" situation came about (spoiler - it's nothing new!) 1/20

ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! Please tell your friends, your family and everyone you know to follow this account. I'm doing something amazing, incredible and epic for you. Remember when I did the ISS alerts? They are returning, but a thousand times better and more! Something all of you will love.

I think we just passed oops.

These freedom of speech merchants really are hypocrites

Widdicombe murder; Police have stated there is no evidence of political motivation and other than that they are saying nothing. So how does Farage know it was 'premeditated'? Either he's being fed information by the Police which would be illegal or... He's talking out of his arse as usual.
