@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.
