QUOTE(DoBelieveTheHype @ 5th May 2024, 08:25 AM)  They've decided to wheel out Suella Braverman as face of the Conservative Party following the general election. You don't even have to listen to what she says to realise that the government have taken the wrong message from these local elections. They're going to get rightly hammered when we do eventually get a general election. But she's very anti Sunak at the moment - when the electorate goes left wing for the recent elections, why do the BBC give prominent airtime to someone who is extremely far right and by every measure unpopular? They should give airtime to Green/Lib Dems/anti war parties instead. I do hope that when Labour get in they sack Kuenssberg and have less bigots on. |

That is one thing I really dislike about BBC political coverage. They tend to be quite biased in their reporting. The fact Suella is given prominent airtime telling Sunak to go further to the right, despite the local elections showing the opposite.... I really hope that one day we get a proportional representation system, so that parties like the greens can be properly represented. I also think once a system is introduced, people will be more likely to vote for other parties outside of Labour & Conservatives. |

They do it on purpose to mark the left as an aberration. Right wing is the status quo for bbc |

Very little attention has been paid to the fact that the Lib Dems, on a significantly lower share of the vote, won slightly more seats than the Tories. The BBC described their 100 gains as "modest" while making Labour's 10 gains sound like a massive triumph.

QUOTE(Hadji @ 4th May 2024, 05:57 PM) I’m surprised Sadiq won again despite ULEZ and knife crime being rife in London. One of the candidates who was running for independent called him out over this and was deliberately disrupting Sadiq during his speech Imagine having ULEZ a policy to stop car fumes ruining people’s health, terrible! |
