I've done a few blogs on Andrew Doyle and his GB News 'Free Speech Nation' show, but I didn't listen fully to the segments at the time.

I've just listened to him rant (monologue) on how nature groups doing queer-related and aimed events is bad, and shows they've been 'infiltrated', and he's completely deranged with the anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric.

He sounds indistinguishable to any evil ghoul of the American Right that want us gone, out of sight of 'society'.

I can also confirm it’s done wonders for my mental health seeing some of the headlines…

Further confirmation of my scepticism with The Guardian newspaper

Absolute silence on trend of thousands of #NHS consultants on strike today.

At least the #BBC makes a small effort to mention the #Strike

There is an #NHSCrisis after #privatisation & 13 years of cuts by the #Tories

I've lost faith in the #UKMedia to offer any useful journalism

Will the NHS have to look at a #GeneralStrike before anyone takes notice?

Via James O'Brien on the other place:
"In today’s perfectly normal newspapers, Richard Littlejohn has written a love song to Boris Johnson. The opening line is ‘Goodbye, World King’ and it is set to the tune of Elton John’s Candle in the Wind. It is almost worth buying the Mail for."

Gutto Hari on Newsnight last night: " ... they've deprived Boris Johnson of his livelihood ..."
The i, this morning:
"Boris Johnson starts new job as Daily Mail columnist day after report found he lied to Parliament"
"Today’s front page of the Daily Mail reports that an “erudite new columnist who’ll be required reading in Westminster and across the world” will be starting on Saturday."

Sunday is supposedly meant to be a 'day of rest', but that doesn't seem to apply to all of the anti-trans media, 'influencer' and foot-soldier ecosystem, who see Sundays as the time to intensify their discourse.

#LGBTQ #trans #ukmedia #media #politics

For anyone who is or has been interested in anything I've got to say, my next #blog on the illogical - laughably transparent to anyone wanting to see behind the curtain - rhetoric of right-wing media's attempt to split 'LGBs' from 'TQs' will be posted tomorrow.

I've boosted my most recent one too - in case you are so bored you want ANYTHING to read - on why we consistently and meekly allow our lives and futures made worse by our rulers.

#LGBTQ #ukmedia #media

I really don't know why anyone (TV or radio) bothers to broadcast #PMQs. It's all a completely rotten pantomime show of distraction, deception, and deflection.

Maybe if they stopped doing it, these fake show performers might get the message, and it would change. #PoliticsLive

First of all, RIP to the two boys killed. No desire of 'justice' will ever bring them back alive.

Over on The Bird, the self-appointed 'experts' - plus the usual mainstream media pundits - bought South Wales Police's original story they weren't involved, hook, line and sinker. So now they're, once again, looking foolish for believing what #police - along with their 'political' allies - say happened. 🧵 🔽

So I see this supposed John Cleese joke removal story has arrived to #GMB this morning, and I just doubt that any #trans person cares about it being in there.

As a gay guy, I've said before we need to keep fucking each other, to speed up the evolution process to have our own babies and help our trans friends.

There are way more threats openly coming from the ruling class to trans and LGBTQ+ rights and existence, to worry about a stage play.

Open to being corrected of course.

#LGBTQ #ukmedia

(I apologise for this running over a few toots. I will be updating my The Bird thread, so further toots may be delayed)

So it seems today The #Telegraph have put out their latest anti-trans piece having added another woman to their coterie of anti-trans athletes. If so, I'm guessing it will be front page of tomorrow's paper.

It's another piece that shows this is all not about 'fairness for women's sports', but for elimination of trans people from being seen in society.

#LGBTQ #trans #ukmedia

Reading this #Oxford University row the Telegraph put on the front page today is interesting.

Not just because they found yet another new way to continue their anti-trans hysteria.

Firstly, I'd be very interested to know how many of the signatories actually are in any way on the Left, given their letter is all in aide of the status quo - ergo conservatism.

In fact, I've just spotted that one of them spoke at #NatCon. 🧵

As you may know I sometimes check in on our right-wing 'news' channels to see what bullshit they're pumping out to harm minority groups today.

And there was a very revealing James Max 'call-in' on TalkTV this morning, riffing on the laughable Scum front page poll today.

Asking 'what woke annoys you?', within minutes multiple callers had been - from Max himself - 'sexist', 'homophobic' and 'transphobic'.

If more, I'm sure 'racist' would be added. (short 🧵)

#ukmedia #media #TalkTV #TheSun

You may have already seen today's Sunday Telegraph, and I'm sure it won't come as a shock to anyone who hasn't been wilfully blind to what's happening.

#Badenoch and the #Tories have been doing a 'war on #woke' for 2+ years and anyone interested worked out where the playbook they're using comes from.

But it's good to see it now fully out in the open.

And all because #DeSantis demands he be praised for everything he says and does, he needed everyone to know.

#Florida #ukpol #uspol #ukmedia

So no doubt many of you saw today's front page of the Daily Express, with the latest round of anti-trans propaganda.

I did have some thoughts for anyone interested.

Firstly, I just love conservative idpol. It's so goofy when those who despise it, go and use it themselves.

The fifth of five on their 'hit list' is ripped straight out of Florida (and blocked iirc), in case anyone needs confirmation where all of this moral panic is coming from. 🔽 🧵

There are massive protests & gatherings on #EarthDay in London, yet I can't find any mention of them outside local papers

The #MainstreamMedia seems very avoidant to report on the #ClimateEmergency

Are the #BBC and #UKmedia funded by the fossil fuel producers?
