Can someone dig out the Living Marxism article where Fox says something diametrically opposite to her position on tonight's #bbcaq There has to be one, there always is

Why are BBC editors so convinced that we have any interest in the views of someone whose chief claim to fame is as the former comms guy, and unapologetic defender, of the UK's worst ever Prime Minister #FreeThinking

Fox and friends (to coin a phrase) have had nine long years to show that their promised Brexit benefits were real, tangible opportunities rather than a pack of lies. They've entirely failed. Time for a different approach #newsnight

Did the Electoral Commission specifically request oblique references to Withnail & I in their latest ads or did the filmmakers just do it for a laugh? I'd love to think it was the latter youtu.be/u83aM4BA5QQ?...

On Monday our instagram account was hacked and then deleted. We received a ransom note to recover it; obviously we couldn't and wouldn't pay, and therefore lost thousands of followers. Meta support was useless. But we're BACK with a new account: @littletollerbooks. Can you follow us there and share?

I can grudgingly understand #r4today just focusing racing coverage on the major meetings but couldn't they at least use a correspondent who knows the first thing about it?
