- n4r9 3mo agoFor what it's worth, I stopped paying the license fee because of how the BBC sucked up to the Tories in the lead up to the 2019 GE. From Newsnight displaying images of Corbyn that made him look like a Soviet stooge, to Laura Kuenssberg leaking postal vote ballot information, to Alex Forsyth saying that Boris Johnson "deserves" the election. People say that it's subject to complaints of bias from both sides of the spectrum, but I've yet to see comparable concrete pro-left examples.

- GJim 3mo agoDon't spout shite. The BBC report is objectively what the defence stated in court: namely that their defendant was autistic. If you've a problem with that, take it up with the lawyers.
