Enough is enough. From phone hacking to harassing grieving families, we’ve seen the damage an unregulated press can do. 😡 Right now, the press marks its own homework. We need a new law to ensure fair, independent regulation that protects ordinary people from abuse. I’ve just signed this petition started by Hugh Grant & Jacqui Hames demanding the Prime Minister takes action. Please join me!
@ApaulD We dodged a bullet with the Morrison govt, but let’s not pretend it was random.
Like in the US, our MSM is dominated by a handful of wealthy owners with a vested interest in keeping power aligned their way.
We were on that path.

It doesn’t take many votes to get a seat in the Senate and One Nation knows it. A primary vote of just 4–6% is often enough when preferences from other right-wing micro parties flow their way.
Add to that a media ecosystem—hello Sky After Dark—that gives them relentless coverage (even when it’s negative), and you’ve got a recipe for survival.

TalkTV is Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News for the UK – a constant source of toxic hate and far-right lies. Over the last 11 weeks, TalkTV has been spouting transphobic hate again and again – totally ignoring the law on broadcasting balance. But the regulator has done nothing. Ofcom must take action to stop TalkTV airing attacks on trans people without broadcasting the views of those who support trans rights. And it’s up to us to make it happen. We know this works: just five months ago over 70,000 people complained to Ofcom after GB News aired a dangerous lie about the LGBTQ+ community.
