Is Brexit the worst decision the UK has ever made? RT if you agree.

Well done Simon from one MBE to another - Tim
I just want to thank, humbly and sincerely, chatgbt for my newly awarded MBE. I knew nothing of this until a slightly odd enquiry from a local newspaper. What an honour! I await the confirmation from the Palace with interest.

Just what is she on?
"We are absolutely delighted and excited about our partnership with Rwanda, to be creating a vibrant community here, to be a positive, secure, beautiful, haven, and home, for many thousands of refugees." UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman in Kigali

Try reading a few history books - most Nazi victims were deported from their home countries in order to be exterminated in other countries such as Poland
Replying to @Eyeswideopen69
The Nazis did not deport people, they actually imported Jews from across Europe so that they could exterminate them.

Linekar was 100% correct in observing that the government’s language was strongly reminiscent of That employed by the Nazis in the 1930s - that fact is not changed by knowing that a lot of us are anti immigrants.
Lineker, a few thoughts 1) Free speech wins, good 2) The comment was stupid and incendiary and he must have known that 3) A huge proportion of the popn wants immigration curbed 4) A huge proportion of the BBC staff does not and has shown it will fight on culture war issues 1/2

Quite appalling bias from LK
So I see in the interests of impartiality #BBCLauraK ends with two anti Gary Lineker messages. #BBCLauraK #Linekergate

Suella Braverman’s proposed actions against asylum seekers including the proposed legislation simply disgust me - this woman is below my contempt. I hope that you see her in the same light and if you live in her constituency, you promise never to give her your vote

It’s the future that always leaves the past in the shade - onwards and upwards
I will be presenting my last show on Radio 2 next Friday. I had intended fulfilling my contract until the end of March but the BBC has decided it wants me to leave earlier. Let’s enjoy the week ahead!

I must associate myself with Quentin’s message. Paul was one of a generation that truly loved radio and cared about getting it right. I am deeply sorry that he has been taken from us. Thank you for all the years that you gave to our industry - Tim B.
So very sad to hear of the untimely death of @PaulEaston Highly regarded in the radio industry, always willing to share his knowledge, a master of music programming and real “radio guy”. Trustee of @BritishWireless, veteran of many commercial stations from @lbc to @JACKfmOxford

We really do all owe Russell Jackson a great deal for his detailed analysis of Question Time’s overwhelming bias to right wing commentators

Tice and Oakeshott - nothing more to be said really - Brexit still an awful waste of time - Heseltine still such a powerful voice with a fine track record of achievement
Watching Jizzabel Moneyshott and Icky Tice getting absolutely rinsed and spat out by Lord Heseltine is a great way to start the day!

We can’t even imagine what life must be like for Ukrainians

Another challenge for Sherlock Holmes methinks?
A mystery. The Yorkshire House-to-House Electricity Co served Leeds from 1893 to 1898, when it was taken over by the council. So why is this street cover in central Coventry…?

Don’t allow yourself to believe the big lie just because it’s uttered by a government minister - tho she rarely seems to understand her brief.
Left: Tory Minister Helen Whately says our biggest achievement after 3 years of Brexit was the vaccine roll out Right: Dr Raine explains that our vaccine roll out was done while the UK was under EU rules So our greatest Brexit achievement was while we were still in the EU 🤷‍♂️
