@jimfletcher.bsky.social“BBCR3 about to play Lord of the Dance, AND Copland’s Appalachian Spring, which is ALSO ballet music”
Nice try, #JustinWebb, #R4Today
Variations on a Shaker Melody is a movement within Appalachian Spring, not a separate piece
At least you didn’t say Gandalf Arrives is part of Lord of the Dance 🤷♂️
@klgeo.bsky.social#radio4 #justinwebb Just allowed a party political broadcast on behalf of #reform the contrast between how different parties are treated is visible from space!
@jimfletcher.bsky.socialThe #Greens leader is Jewish; the earlier guest was #Jewish, yet #JustinWebb seeks to accuse the Greens of #Antisemitism over a conference motion that hasn’t even been debated yet.
Pillock.
@jimfletcher.bsky.socialKudos to #JustinWebb for outing himself as a strictly hands-off parent on #R4Today
Presumably he will admit, when reporting on juvenile delinquency in the future, that he fully supports absent fathers and good-for-nothing dads.
@jimfletcher.bsky.social“… or #SuperIntelligence, as That Idiot #Trump wants us to call it”
Grow a pair, #JustinWebb
Are you unable to ignore stupidity without a second presenter to hide behind?
#BBC #R4Today doesn’t need to pay big money for cowardice. They can get that from any grovelling imbecile.
@bicycle-fat-bloke.bsky.social#DavidGauke & #DaleVince are talking about 2 different things & it was a waste of everyone's time if #JustinWebb can't grasp that. #Vince is talking about ending/cutting intrest rate #BOE pays to Banks to hold Bank funds over short periods of time which is currently 4%.
#r4today
@jimfletcher.bsky.socialWeird to hear #JustinWebb bemoaning #FreeSpeech and standing up on behalf of #snowflake culture.
@jimfletcher.bsky.socialThe next craze coming our way from the USA - high infant mortality and iron lungs
Trump “making America normal again” - #JustinWebb
#BBCR4Today #JustinWebb gives us an insight into his inspirations - #Trump, #BobMonkhouse...Odd pairing but both clowns
@rrgw.bsky.socialAnd #justinwebb making light of it on his America’s podcasts!! Surprise surprise !
@jimfletcher.bsky.social#JustinWebb to #EdMiliband on #R4Today: “Surely when imposing sanctions on illegal Israeli settlements, you MUST tell #Hamas what you are willing to accept from them?”
Who remembers Webb, after #October7, asking guests: “Do you condemn Hamas, but also set clear red lines for Israel’s response?”
@nevereverdave.bsky.social#EdMilliband did well, faced by #JustinWebb's questions. His rationale of awaiting an international court declaration of #Israel executing a genocide of the #Palestinian people of #Gaza [which has not taken place when arguably imo it is essential they do asap despite no media allowed in by Israel].
#R4Today #JustinWebb asked #EdMilliband about the word #Genocide in relation to Israel and then quoted #SimonSchama as if he is an impartial umpire on the issue. He’s not. As it says in the #JewishChronicle he’s a “Proud Zionist.” Poor reporting - #BBC should be better than this.
@jimfletcher.bsky.socialTHIS is award-winning journalism!
#JustinWebb certainly gave #EdMiliband some epic home truths about the experience of #BritishJews
What would Miliband know about #Antisemitism? I bet Webb’s private school - like Nigel Farage’s - was a nightmare of Jew hate.
@maisongladys.bsky.social#R4Today #EdMilliband sounds like the reasoned voice of humanity, especially compared to #JustinWebb expounding the ambitions of #Netanyahu and #Israelis in favour of a greater #Zionist state.
