If only someone could axe you from your dire reporting, made up stories and fear porn, what a utopia that would be. The BBC are also gash please consider donating £1 to keep critical thought alive.

John Craven needs to do the last programme.

Bit worried about the BBC, on the day of the Russia Report they seemed to suppress coverage.

Watched Newsround not long ago, was doing a weirdly better job of reporting recent events than any of the 'adult' media.

Their integrity has been smashed. Along with the very people reporting this
