Anyone else finding this chummy normalisation of Matt Hancock repulsive? .He tried to close down my local Lewisham Hospital. He's one of the disgusting crew who has led us as a country where we are now. Ignore this creep. This chancer. No trials. Nothing. Then out. #ImACeleb.

The BBC is gone. We have to accept that now. It is not going through one of it's "difficult" phases, it is gone. It has been smartly infiltrated by its enemies over the last decade and now hollowed out and reconditioned to serve another, political purpose. The BBC is gone.
