It's interesting that you think that news is about showing different opinions about a topic. It's not. The job of a journalist is about finding out the truth. Once it's clear what that truth is, it's entirely valid to not have people who deny that proof for profit on their platform.Fair points but there is a stark difference between giving an appropriate amount of coverage to differ sides of arguments, as opposed to a policy decision to not cover one side at all, irrespective. It's not their job to decide what points of view are valid or not. It's their job to reflect what points of view exist in appropriate proportion.
Did Boris also break the law by choosing his 2nd home to recover after CV treatment or is that different?So it now transpires that Cummings owns 50% of the farm he stayed at in Durham and that his company (Klute Limited number 07472305) is registered to that address.
The very same farm (co owned by Cummings , his parents and one other) have been claiming 20,000 euros per year in Eu farming subsidies .
So essentially he was travelling to his second home , (another point he failed to mention) in clear contravention of the law.
Presumably at that point Boris had been given the all clear, no?Did Boris also break the law by choosing his 2nd home to recover after CV treatment or is that different?
He only apologised because he was caught putting it on Twitter.
He quickly tried to delete it but it was picked up by Guido Fawkes.
Apparently his father was/is Donald Campbell.
You would've thought Alistair would have learnt he has to be quicker than the rest.
Campbell is currently editor or 2 publications.
One is some sort of mens mag.
The other is a pro European pamphlet I've heard of but never read.
He should be sacked from both or resign his position. Remember how one of the big Labour mantras under his guidance was equality.
Oh how the country misses him.
We are rudderless Alistair.
Help us .

As a simple example about the forest fires in Brazil, did you know that the amount of land burned by fire is steadily declining year on year? Or that the loss of Amazonian rainforests is not particularly high by historical standards? Or that the Amazon is not "the lungs of the planet" and does not output vast amounts of oxygen? I doubt it, because the BBC censors such facts, preferring instead to peddle propaganda in support of its climate change agenda.
you really should take this to the Alastair Campbell thread
Sorry I'm confusing it with full lockdown where prime house use only is permitted.for all irrespective of medical condition.Presumably at that point Boris had been given the all clear, no?
The Tories, in one guise or another, have spent a decade in government without knowing or understanding what it is they are governing, dismissing swathes of lower-profile public services as 'bureaucrats' or 'public sector waste'. Thus their response to the pandemic paid little attention to public health infrastructure, cut council leaders out of discussions, and treated care homes as a dumping ground to clear NHS beds for new covid inpatients - as we now see, with catastrophic results.
And why would a government led by a pampered faux-aristocrat advised by an angry cosplaying philosopher king with a family castle have any idea that care workers inhabit a world where they can't afford to take time off sick?
Emily Maitless says she took the night off. Does anyone tell the truth nowadays?
Meanwhile Manchester is supposed to be having a communal sing song tonight. All Cummings fault.
