Also recently submitted a FOI request to Ofcom—the UK’s media regulator—about how it handles complaints across UK’s 8 biggest broadcasters.

Including:

BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, Sky News, GB News, LBC, and TalkTV.

Info requested for each broadcaster:

- The total number of public complaints submitted to Ofcom.

- The number of complaints actually investigated under the Broadcasting Code.

- The number that resulted in a breach finding.

- And the number that led to a fine or financial penalty.

With Ofcom acting as the main enforcement body under the new Online Safety Act, the question of the extent of their bias couldn't be more urgent.

They’ve got the standard 20 working days to respond.

If the numbers show a pattern—tough on some outlets, lenient on others—it’ll be hard to argue that Ofcom is the neutral, apolitical regulator it claims to be.

For context, the Chief Executive of Ofcom, Melanie Dawes has already come under fire for bias regulation in recent years.

The former Permanent Secretary Champion for Diversity and Inclusion and Patchwork Foundation contributor has been accused of imposing inconsistent and selective fines for some outlets and unfairly dismissing complaints for others.

Could be very revealing.

These are getting painful to read...

"A convicted Iranian sex offender has avoided deportation because drink and drug use have made him distrust authority.

Judges said the Iranian would be likely to behave in a “hostile” way if questioned by airport immigration officers in Tehran, because of his distrust of officialdom."

While everyone was distracted by the Sentencing Council scandal, another power move had already been made.

Labour Justice Sec Mahmood and her dept quietly implemented a two-tier bail system in January.

And it's been in effect for months now.

Just a reminder...

The BBC tried to spin the Adolescence saga so hard that they linked Andrew Tate to the Southport child-murders.

Their headline:

"Southport attack parents share Andrew Tate fears"

But 6 lines down from the headline, the author confesses:

"it is not know whether he (Rudakubana) ever viewed material linked to Mr Tate"

Why write an article on it then?

Still no word from them on the reported anti-white content found on Rudakubana’s laptop—which, if they’re willing to use flimsy links to tie Tate to the story, they should be covering as well.

Back in January, Labour’s Yvette Cooper promised action on the grooming gang scandal.

Five independent local inquiries were pledged. Certain survivors weren’t fully satisfied—but it was something.

Now, they've quietly "killed" those promises.
