Why is #R4Today reporting Reform’s nonsense high up in the headlines as if it’s something anybody anywhere should take seriously?

I remember reading a report about this about two years ago. The amount of money that we spend subsidising climate and environmental damaging industries.
Abilu Tangwa.@abilutangwa.bsky.social · 4d agoThe IMF says we pay $5T/year to subsidize fossil fuels — that's $13M per MINUTE to destroy our future. Meanwhile solar & wind fight for scraps. We don't have a funding problem. We have a priority problem.
Listen to this clip. This is the kind of #noise communities deal with near data centers. Would you want this as your neighbour? They keep forcing these sites anywhere they want, and it’s barely a footnote in the harm they profit from. Billionaires must be abolished. #WealthTax #Limitarianism
Data Center noise: How would you like to live next to this sound all day, all night?

#R4Today. I rather think the your listeners would be happier if the future of our world weren’t in the hands of geeky megalomaniac tech bros.
#R4Today It would be useful for you also to include in your headlines the reinstatement by Reform of Glenn Gibbins. #ZackPolsnski www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

News outlets that covered the US-Saudi nuclear deal without mentioning that Jared Kushner, Trump’s top foreign policy advisor, is getting paid by the Saudi government: WSJ NYT AP Reuters CNN NBC ABC CBS The Guardian Semafor Washington Post Fox News New York Post BBC Newsweek MS NOW
A nuclear deal for the Saudis. A media blackout for Kushner’s corruption.
On Wednesday, the Trump administration signed a 30-year nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia that paves the way for the kingdom to enrich its own uranium.

Could #R4Today presenters please educate themselves on how to pronounce the word Cymru? I don’t understand how they manage to turn the y into a w.
NEW: Why would Nigel Farage & George Cottrell share the same lawyer? In @thenerve_news we revealed that the Reform donor under investigation by the NCA & the Reform leader under investigation by Parliamentary Standards share the same Carter Ruck lawyers. Why? 1/l

Listening to a very mild ABC Radio Adelaide, and as a matter of fact, they describe Tommy Robinson as “far-right anti-Islam activist and convicted criminal”.
Oh ffs, Nick Robinson, trying to create a culture war over some Northerners in government. #R4Today
"My message to the people of the UK is that I'll train the new guy but you're going to have to stick with one of them eventually."
Here is the Opinionometer for today at the Tolpuddle Festival. Apparently the question about defence caused much discussion, as did timing of starting accession process.
It’s taken 10 years for Farage to come under any meaningful scrutiny. You don’t stay squeaky clean if your sugar baby is a criminal. open.spotify.com/episode/5b3W...

NEW: Who funds Nigel Farage? And why has it taken till now for any journalistic scrutiny? @carolecadwalla.bsky.social who has tracked him for a decade exposes how the UK press & regulators looked the other way 🧵👇
In the 1960's, when the USA led the world w/ blue-chip companies in every field, the average CEO-to-worker pay ratio for major corps was 20-to-1. Now, CEO's are paid about 300 times as much as the typical worker. Those CEO's don't work any harder nor are they more deserving.
Bedfordshire police said the total number of charges against the brothers was now 59, with 42 against Andrew Tate and 17 against Tristan Tate. No doubt Trump will protect them. www.theguardian.com/news/2026/ju...

Why the massive disappointment? Did anybody really expect England to win? #R4Today
There has to be a direct link between the current climate of political violence and the rhetoric of Farage and his followers going back to the run up to Brexit. #R4today
How come the main slot on #R4today is another whine-in by Reform?
The country doesn’t matter. The richest devour wealth globally. The top 1% in many countries can even shrink, but the top 0.1% keeps rising. Zucman shows it🔻, but you don’t even need sources. Just look at Musk’s net‑worth jump in the last year (200-400% according to estimations—far from 10% in OP)
The Metropolitan Police have launched a criminal investigation into a £500,000 donation to Reform from the mother of the convicted fraudster and Farage donor, George Cottrell www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...
