I see 30p is cosplaying as a journalist again. Here he is 'undercover' discovering 'manuals' being distributed to migrants in foreign languages. Outrageous. All the while he's standing around - in France - expecting people to speak to him in a foreign language - English.

Drew to some. Andrew to others. It all depends on the radio era & station + the country and the need to disambiguate! 🇬🇧/🇧🇷 en-gb/pt-br Hello to all ex X! Nice to see you here.
Just heard a detailed story about a customer complaint which featured the line "it was a foreign call centre so the man wouldn't talk to me because I'm a woman". I asked more details. Turns out it was actually: He asked her name and because it didn't match the account holder, they can't talk to her
@mrjamesob.bsky.social Have you ever interviewed Hasan Piker? I'm so curious to know how that would go.
We're in a pickle because the requirement for balance on BBC debates + ratings on commercial TV/radio led us to "ANTI-CONSENSUS" format. Well-informed, educated people agree on many things but won't get proportionally higher representation. You can't have everyone agreeing. The show would be over!
hello from Britain where I'm in the pub with a group of friends and I would say we're now on minute 20 of them sharing stories about the nonce teachers they had at school
Are we SURE it was abdominal surgery he had? Aside from the claim it happened on the SAME day (7th JULY) he travelled to London for a press conference to announce his resignation - and he was back in action shortly after - it does look more like he was extracted from Trump's fundament by ventouse.
writing about ABBA and the other half said that the hotel we regularly stay in in Stockholm also used to have a studio which they used briefly, and you can book it as a suite now and omg
Just read this old interview with Cilla Black in the Daily Mail.
@mrjamesob.bsky.social don't forget this...3
Of course Reform also took a donation from a public figure who suggested "someone should kill" the Mayor of London.. who he calls "the Muslim mayor". Farage SUBSEQUENTLY (key chronology) asked him if he'd like to stand for the party.
Bonkers X feed wants Zia as Home Secretary. After holding a poll which wants him deported. So I guess he'll need to get straight on to deporting himself the moment he gets the job!
Last week I asked Robert Jenrick about what people with EU settled status should do and he replied: “If you are in this country and you are not a British citizen, and you are somebody who will not be able to stay in the UK under a Reform government, then you should think of leaving the country.”
Half a century of advance warning. Undeniable patterns in recent years. Constant record breaking temperatures now. And somehow.. in 2026.. this is the depth of commentary from a man who was previously in charge of government purse strings: "Clearly there's something going on with the weather"🔊
And here's the video. Very clear mobile phone and the camera can even see the screen light up when he taps on it. When I look closely at the video I have no difficulty identifying the driver as the man who was in court despite his claims that he wasn't the driver. youtu.be/G-2mmc80Vic

A difference of 1,269,501. Which sounds like a lot until we consider 12,922,659 registered voters didn't vote at all.
Today's T-shirt is one of my fave London Underground posters saying that it's Cooler underground. Hmmm... Not sure if central line users will agree 😅
Great to hear the CLASSIC "3 pin plug" Brexiteer call repeated on @mrjamesob.bsky.social today around the top of hour right in the middle of the show. Like tuning in to Gold hoping for your yesteryear faves & getting Thunderclap Newman or Bowie!🎯 I was joining in! "Compliancy to the British laws!"
What about.. "As Secretary of State for Transport I will ensure an investigation gets underway and moves swiftly to find out how this could have happened and provife closure to all affected. Ensuring we can find any failings and enhance safety systems wherever possible is the vital next step."
This isn't well handled. Heartfelt condolences, but where's the acknowledgement of the author's role as the senior government official responsible for leading the executive department that oversees railway infrastructure management and safety? Where's the "what I'm doing" part??

Ten years on from Brexit there are still no rules to prevent lies in election ads. We’ve tabled amendments to stop election ads like the infamous Brexit bus misleading voters again. Email your MP and ask them to sponsor them. It takes 1 minute. 👇 reformpoliticaladvertising.org/take-action/...
just had an email telling me that my GP surgery is now on Facebook and Insta and tbh I am not sure that is really the best use of their time ...
PSNI don't even mention neck injuries in their most recent statements. Seems all this "beheading" is down to someone screaming that on the video circulating and the right wing media pushing it hard. Breitbart, Mail, Telegraph as well as the Murdoch press. Might as well have handed out petrol.
