@manchestereveningnews.co.uk @europesays today's BBC weather warning about Storm Bram ended with a cheery "at least it's mild!" Do they not know that the mild weather is part of the same climate crisis that's causing the storms? The met office must know this mild weather is not a benign bit of good luck. And should make sure we know it too. These storms cause chaos ... mild weather is not good, BBC!

CEO from #Anthropic on #bbcr4today frothing about doing #AI fast enough to beat "the authoritarians"

I mean, it's worrying when powerful people don't know what goes on in other countries, but it's bloody terrifying when they appear to have no concept of what is going on in their own

Also #AmolRajan being embarrassingly credulous 🙄

Horrified to hear #bbcr4today casually referring to further 'regime change' re #Iran - are they wilfully ignorant, captives of #FossilCapital - or both? #journalism

Did a 2 am‼️ interview with #BBC News for #BBCr4today

We will NOT remove #Biden, especially right before the #RepublicanNationalConvention

Stop undermining Biden and doing Trump’s dirty work for him

President Biden is our nominee and I support him. Who’s with me? 🇺🇸
_______________

I have been working hard to keep Biden’s donors and supporters on board, reminding them of the #ExistentialThreat #Trump poses to our beloved American #Republic

The climate crisis is no laughing matter, no matter what those on Radio 4’s Today programme think.

The climate crisis is no laughing matter, no matter what those on Radio 4’s Today programme think

As a scientist, I’m faced with indifference and a failure to understand the reality of the climate crisis every day. We must wake people up, says UCL’s Bill McGuire

@caitrionaGalway @BackFromTheDud #bbc, #bbcr4today and #bbcpm do exactly the same - put them forward as reliable trustworthy people. The latest approach is the BBC says the #idf is looking into it (ie they can’t simply lie this time) and that’s the last you hear about it
@Helenmackin heard that too, Nick was pretty good today! Nice one Nick #bbcr4today
@ProjectFearlessness Casson was so good on Radio 4 Today programme this morning. Reassuring to hear such sense spoken, and realise that there are still some grown ups in politics.
