Stephen Flynn completely destroying Farage- “When Nigel Farage tells you all that migrants are biggest problem and are making you poorer- don’t believe him. You want to know what the biggest problem facing the UK economy right now? His pet project of Brexit" #itvdebate #bbcqt

Laura Kuenssberg wants to know if 'working people' are those who have "Scrimped and saved to buy a couple of rental properties". Won’t somebody think of the poor landlords? This ‘working people’ line of questioning is preposterous. #bbclaurak

Stephen Fry’s impression of Alan Carr is TV GOLD. #CelebrityTraitors #Uncloaked

Helen Whately playing fast and loose with facts on Laura Kuenssberg this morning on disability-related benefits and the Motability Scheme. Mobility Cars are NOT free. Not available for Mild depression, Acne, ADHD and Tennis elbow. Misleading, stigmatising and dangerous #bbclaurak

Interesting framing from Kemi Badenoch re partygate. It was “overblown” - the law was to blame, it shouldn’t have been illegal. 🙄 #BBCLauraK

Graham Stuart demonstrates that the Tories have learned nothing from their failed experiment. Austerity is not "living within our means". Austerity doesn’t just damage public services, it widens inequality, limits opportunities and destroys faith in the future. #bbcqt

Chris McCausland is a legend. His response to Craig: “I'm too knackered to care… I’ll drive you home tonight mate” Comedy gold. #StrictlyComeDancing #Strictly

Incredible. Conservatives trounced in the local elections, but the bbc flagship politicial programme #bbclaurak lead “interview” is an unchallenged rant from the delusional, divisive, twice-sacked, right wing crank, Suella Braverman. Why was she platformed? #LauraKuenssberg

On #bbcqt Yasmin Alibhai-Brown points out “Stanley Johnson was a wife beater” Fiona Bruce helpfully explains “he broke his wife’s nose, she was hospitalised” “ it did happen, BUT it was a one off” What a defence - only occasional domestic violence 🤔

Rishi Sunak says sanctions for not doing National Service could include driving licences” and “access to finance” Completely Bonkers 😬 He is dying on his feet. #bbcqt

As #bbclaurak is trending, it is worth reminding ourselves that just 4 weeks ago, Laura had Mandelson on for the softest interview on her show. To add insult to injury, his client, Palantir’s Louis Moseley appeared as a pundit. Complicit?

So I see in the interests of impartiality #BBCLauraK ends with two anti Gary Lineker messages. #BBCLauraK #Linekergate

This is what passes for political analysis on #bbclaurak Very highly paid TV presenters suggesting Starmer should go on I'm a Celebrity because this is how the public got to “know” “man of the people” Farage. Do me a favour.

An indignant Laura Kuenssberg asks Communities Secretary Steve Reed. "why would Israel say something that is not true." Give me strength, where do you even start with this? #BBCLauraK

Jacob Rees-Mogg on #bbcqt claiming that people actively choose a life on benefits and we need ‘tougher sanctions’ Latest insight from multi-millionaire who thinks food banks are rather uplifting, Grenfell Tower victims lacked common sense, and Partygate was just fluff Spare me.

Ben Lowry: "There's a determination to depict Unionists and Loyalists as more racist than anyone else. -That's entirely wrong " Jackie Long #c4news "But most of the chaos of last night was in Loyalist areas wasn't it?" Ben Lowry: "Yes, it was” 🤔 #c4news #belfast

Tim Stanley tells #bbcqt that the media is “overwhelmingly left wing” 3 right wing moguls Murdock, Barclay &amp; Rothermere control 3 quarters of UK newspapers. Meanwhile his mates Oakeshott, Andrews, Tice and Farage et al are relentlessly platformed by BBC. Comedy gold.

Laura Kuenssberg blatantly framing the budget as an attack on class. Never mind poverty- “rightly or wrongly you’ve put taxes up on private jets and private schools” On the other hand Kemi Badenoch is introduced as the “bold and radical” new leader of opposition. #BBCLauraK

The softest interview imaginable with Nigel Farage on #BBCLauraK No pushback, no challenge, just nodding acceptance of populist rhetoric. Farage complains “We are getting poorer” Not challenged by Laura Kuenssberg on the role Brexit has played in UK economic downturn. Pathetic.

Wes Streeting Wes Streeting wiping the floor with the woeful Helen Whatley on #bbcqt “Kemi Badenoch chose to use an international conflict to score cheap political points. She cozied up to Trump, realised it was unpopular and then she pulled back” KemiKazi at her worst.

Sinead O'Connor and Terry Hall do Dana- singing 'All Kinds Of Everything'. Don’t know why they did it but it’s both magical and heartbreaking. #ripsineadoconnor

Michael J Fox performing Humankind with Coldplay. That’s it I’m done. #Glastonbury

Has Israel gone beyond defending itself? #bbcqt Ash Sakar Ash Sarkar nails it with some uncomfortable truths. “We left the parameters of self defence a very long time ago. 40,000 people in Gaza are dead at least, probably an undercount..not about self defence” @bbcqt

Robert Jenrick tells #bbclaurak he can replace parts of the Good Friday Agreements - an international multilateral peace treaty - because UK is country of habeas corpus and Magna Carta". Desperate stuff.

The lift coming out of that poignant #blackout was just incredible. Chris McCausland 📖 "Keep Laughing" OUT NOW! is an inspiration, challenging stereotypes and pushing boundaries. That routine had glitterball written all over it. #Strictly

Bravo, Alastair Campbell delivers a few home truths to Nigel Farage “You are somebody who will exploit any problem going for your own political ends. Brexit was a fundamentally damaging thing for this country It’s made us poorer, weaker, hit our standing in the world” #bbcqt

Tim Stanley tells #bbcqt that the media is “overwhelmingly left wing” 3 right wing moguls Murdock, Barclay & Rothermere control 3 quarters of UK newspapers. Meanwhile his mates Oakeshott, Andrews, Tice and Farage et al are relentlessly platformed by BBC. Comedy gold.
