I’m just not sure how to take this forward. I would like the BBC to be the bench mark for good public broadcasting and continue to entertain. I’d also like not to be told I’m far right for holding views which have been ratified by the Cass review, and Supreme Court judgement.

The BBC from Samir Shah, its chairman down clearly thinks that its abuse of trust on so many fronts is but a storm in a tea-cup. Anita Singh, Arts and Entertainment Editor of the Telegraph, recalls a frosty encounter with Tim Davie at the Cheltenham Festival earlier in the year. He reproached her for revealing that he 'was not only present at Glastonbury on the day that Bob Vylan made his incendiary “Death, death to the IDF” chant, but had been informed of it by staff on the ground. His failure to take decisive action by ordering the live stream to be pulled led the BBC into yet another crisis.' He is still clearly acting as if the BBC should be left to do whatever it likes despite being a public service broadcaster funded by licence fee payers. So are the other panjandrums at the corporation. All the more reason for a radical overhaul, so that today's BBC becomes a bitter memory from a nightmarish age that it did so much to create. telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/11…

This is the legacy of Tim Davie at the BBC. The man below was included in the BBC’s 2024 list of “100 inspiring women”. The BBC is rotten to its core.
Oh for FUCK sake. MEN to be banned from all female Olympic events. MEN MEN MEN MEN MEN MEN MEN. They are all MEN.

The bbc has acted as a de facto propaganda arm of Hamas throughout the war The amount of damage they have done warping the truth and turning the world on Israel is despicable They are a shame on Britain
🔴 The BBC has been forced to correct two stories a week about the Gaza conflict since the Oct 7 attacks on Israel, The Telegraph can reveal telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/11…

@davidyelland This isn't a victory for populists. It's a victory for truth – the truth your side refuses to face. Tim Davie didn't fall because of a "cabal" or a "coup." He fell because the BBC, under his watch, became the least trusted institution in British public life. When a state broadcaster distorts, edits, and deceives, accountability isn't a coup. It's justice. This collapse wasn't plotted in newspaper offices; it was authored inside Broadcasting House. The BBC doctored a presidential speech to fit a narrative. Its Arabic arm gave a platform to open antisemites, laundered Hamas propaganda, and censored the suffering of Israeli victims. It pushed a trans-activist agenda while silencing its own journalists. These aren't the tactics of populists – they're the symptoms of an institution captured by the Left and rotting from within. You talk of "our values." But whose values? The BBC's values haven't been British for years. It sneers at patriotism, distrusts capitalism, sides with global bureaucrats over British voters, and treats traditional beliefs as moral contamination. It has turned impartiality into performance art – a mask worn to preach ideology while pretending to serve the public. The only "toxic plotters" are those who corrupted the BBC's mission and turned it against the country that funds it. The only "firing squad" that matters is the public – tired of being lectured, misled, and made to pay for their own re-education. Davie's resignation isn't a populist scalp. It's a long-delayed consequence of arrogance, deceit, and contempt for truth. And if that truth now threatens the comfort of Britain's media class, so be it. Institutions that lie to the public deserve to fall – not to be protected by those who helped them rot. "The BBC doctored a presidential speech to fit a narrative. Its Arabic arm gave a platform to open antisemites [...]. It pushed a trans-activist agenda while silencing its own journalists."

Jeremy Bowen doesn’t even care when he gets caught. This should have been a career ending admission.

I may have missed something but I think every contributor the Today Programme has had on to discuss systemic bias at the BBC has been a man. Despite the fact that one of the key allegations of bias is in relation to its bias against women’s rights. Sums it up really.

The BBC have been lying about Israel for decades and they’ve been lying about Gaza for the last two years. If you rely on them for information about the conflict, you’re getting unfiltered Hamas propaganda.

‘Deliberately written’
I don't think that a deliberately written and leaked memo constitutes evidence of any sort. The person who wrote it was put in place by the biggest liar in British politics, one de Pfeffel Johnson. The right-wing pile on worked this time, but democracy demands that it cannot win.
More BBC misinformation.
The BBC is facing a coordinated, politically motivated attack. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

No doubt I’m biased too, but to my mind, the biggest and most indefensible problem at the BBC for the past few years has been gender ideology. Absolutely NO balance, full-on flat eartherism on TV, radio and online. The few GC voices get censured, TRAS dominate

News stories about drag queens get full play, news stories about damage done to women and children are censored. And let’s not even get started on Women’s Hour. Arguments over Israel and Trump coverage strike me as more complex. But the gender bias is overwhelming

Overheard in the @BBCr4today editorial meeting: “BBC News is in crisis, accused of biased reporting and spreading misinformation, what is our take?” “I know, let’s get a conspiracy theorist on to make un-evidenced claims of a coup and political interference” “Brilliant”
David Yelland is not doing the BBC any favours at all with his conspiracy theories on the Today programme.
