There's a 'debate' underway over a certain singer, his abhorrent statements etc, mental illness (claimed), and redemption/forgiveness. #bbcr4today Can it really be the case that redemption/forgiveness is simply a matter of saying 'sorry guv, i got it wrong. Now can I go on making my millions pls?'.
"Man travelled further than ever before"? Seriously #BBCR4Today? Is there or is there not a woman in that capsule? Did women work on that mission? Humans travelled further.
Oddly, on #BBCR4Today they beeped out the word "fucking" but did include the "Praise be to Allah" bit.
Two contrasting reports on #bbcr4today today: First the chap who in 1981 completed visiting all 92 league football grounds, and 47 years later has now done all 2500 non-league grounds. Second, the astronauts about to be the furthest humans ever from earth. Which is the bigger journey?
I've been listening to #BBCR4Today since about 1970.
The list of excellent presenters is a long one and top of my list - of the worst presenters - is Mr Webb.

Did
@BBCr4today
really just do a whole package about drilling in the N Sea without once even mentioning #climate change? And not having anyone challenging the one-sided claims of former BP boss? So irresponsible #bbcr4today
They did indeed, and they do this over and over again. The incoming editor has to read the riot act to TODAY presenters about their incompetent journalism and disregard of climate policy in asking questions about energy choices. #bbcr4today
Yes #bbcr4today is shocking on #climate. They regularly give a platform to airport bosses wanting expansion without any challenge. And when did they last have a #climate campaigner on to provide some balance? I can't remember them ever doing so.
We need to mass protest this utterly irresponsible journalism! #bbcr4today
Gave up listening to #bbcr4today when Mishal Hussein quit.

#BBCR4Today Has #Starmer found the way to trump #Reform - capture the #Remain vote and ride the #antiTump bandwagon to which #Farage is welded? Could be a winner!
#BBCR4Today Why are #Starmer and #Streeting screwing with the #Doctors? Have they learnt nothing from the #Pandemic? #Doctors and #Nurses are amongst the most valuable people we have. Look after them!
The businesses minister was getting a hard time on #BBCR4Today, but he at least he was saying that minimum wage increases are a good thing and businesses shouldn't be "supported" by lower wages for staff.
Might be a controversial view, but the best interviewers give the interviewee a chance to respond. Even when it is Peter Kyle. #bbcr4today

This is SERIOUS shit …
😤 James Murray on the energy crisis on #BBCR4Today
🤖 He was like a parody of the politician-as-automaton
🤔 All he needed to do was to show a bit of empathy and speak like a human being
☹ No wonder Labour is just so unpopular
#BBCR4Today If #Israel's new #CapitalPunishment law is extended to include #Israeli's committing unlawful killing, both the #IDF and #Settler community will be decimated
Dr Jack Fletcher has such moral patience and is so v articulate and I bet he has a brilliant bed side manner #notaeuphemism #bbcr4today

Run this on your “what the papers say” …
Christ, modern American media accents are unbearable. The intonation and pitch is an assault on my ears.

#BBCR4Today If #Trump was to seize #KhargIsland, his actions may be viewed in the #ArabWorld as a return to #colonisation by western powers. This in turn might threaten the position of #West-leaning regimes in #Egypt, #Saudi, #Jordan etc. #USA needs a competent hand on the tiller, not #Trump
This is how you do it, Chris Mason, #BBCr4today

"Is the US good for its word?"+ex-MI6 Chief John Sawers
#BBCr4today: "The United States has not actually proved a very reliable interlocutor for the Iranians." Will chronic erraticism+too clever by half bad faith moves permanently weaken #US?
Hearing accounts of the McSweeney phone theft does beg the question:
- so many govt and govt-adjacent phones go missing , its almost like its why the govt has never done anything about phone theft: it gives them cover for 'losing' their phones.

Kudos to the #bbcr4today team for getting the long sgment of Mr Ben theme in, ending just in time to avoid crashing the pips.

The architect Vanbrugh hadnt designed any architecture when, in his 40s, an aristo also in the KitKat Club wondered if hed mind designing a house for him: Castle Howard. Not bad for a wine merchant - playwright. Lovely piece. And then he did Blenheim Palace.
