It's Wednesday?

It's Wednesday?

Shhh !

THE UK IS RISING! NO MORE ARMS FACTORIES!

I love the smell of Student Politics in the morning

[AnatolyKasparov]

Sangita Myska has left LBC, which looks bad.

[frog222]

After decades of our loving them those ungrateful people are stabbing us in the back by not accepting a puppet government led by one of our oligarchs !
Anyway, fuck the people (apart from the minority awaiting our arrival) , the land is ours and don't forget it !

It's Wednesday?

Apparently I was only half awake, when I started this morning.

Sangita Myska has left LBC, which looks bad.

Replaced by Vanessa Feltz, apparently.

No TV so just seen the occasional clip of her over the years, but obviously a pro at her job .

I used to watch Novara quite often when it was on alternate weekdays, but completely lapsed when it became nightly, only so many hours in a day, and strong competition from Silicon Curtain which is looong, but ace !

Here's Ash with background to the Israeli --

Party of the workers everyone

Enjoyed that, does everyone get a free read ?

OTOH ....Mogzilla 3h " It's another example of the shadow cabinet going weak at the knees, but in any event the agenda is positive, unlike the Tories, who have set up special economic zones t odo exactly the opposite. Stripping away all workers rights and dishing out begging bowls. "

"Business-friendly" is a very british catchphrase for ....capitulation !

I mean, any reason why this "story" and the even less substantial one about Rwanda might have been "revealed" this week of all weeks?

Purely an innocent coincidence, I am sure......

I'm more concerned as to why they're looking to not strengthen workers rights.

This popped up on my youtube sidebar, so had a quick look . Fun comments , such as this ...

So, LBC let go Sangita (who held Israel to account) and replaces her with Vanessa Feltz (Jewish, who peddled the 40 babies decapitated lie). Those in charge of LBC couldn't have been less subtle if they tried.

Its still spin to a significant degree, though. Even if there is a bit more to it than the Rentoul nonsense you posted last night.

(to anyone who doesn't know already - JR is *not* a Labour/Starmer supporter; he genuinely adores Sunak, who he has repeatedly called the "heir to Blair")

[frog222]

More fun !

[AnatolyKasparov]

Oh, and the FT splash has now been denied by a Labour spokesman.

I know that doesn't guarantee anything (given what happened with the £28 billion thing) but it shows there are some who will push back against this.

[frog222]

Relief !
