My acknowledgment of my resignation of membership. No more voting for me either - I'm out.

Just like the UK version

For those commenting about the government being too slow - it is Ofcom:

Which brings me to the meat of this piece: the possibility of a ban. The idea first started growing legs late last week when The Telegraph reported that a ban was under consideration. This came off the back of comments made by Liz Kendall, the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, who commented that:

“Sexually manipulating images of women and children is despicable and abhorrent... I, and more importantly the public, would expect to see Ofcom update on next steps in days not weeks.”

She also noted that the Online Safety Act:

“…includes the power to block services from being accessed in the UK, if they refuse to comply with UK law” and that “if Ofcom decide to use those powers they will have our full support”.

Hedge funds win big from Brexit bets

Hedge funds betting that Britain would leave the EU were rewarded with bumper payouts after stock markets fell sharply on the back of the Brexit decision.

A heavy fall for UK and European stocks on Friday led to gains for some of the most bearish hedge fund managers such as Crispin Odey, who was among those that had been previously nursing large losses for the year.

Stock-picking hedge funds including Marshall Wace, Odey Asset Management and TT International were some of the biggest names to make money on their short positions against UK stocks.

Hedge funds that had taken short positions against equities but bought bonds also benefited on the first day of trading after the Brexit vote, including Winton Capital Management and Aspect, which run computer-driven funds. Alex Roepers, founder of Atlantic Investment Management, said he had made money from shorting the British pound.

Ofcom needs new staff. The list not pursued here is ridiculous, particularly the blatantly awful Sam Coates on Mark Austin decision not to pursue

Allyson@ada-l· May 26

Reposting - mistake in my last post. The post that started the 'praying' discussion (continued by you) was your one here. The 'spirit' is another made-up religious term.

Allyson@ada-l· May 25

Since the op put off comments - two cheeks, same arse

Allyson@ada-l· May 21

What a negative thing to say for such positive news. I hate flags but I don't think this is the least important. Maybe they got the idea from the nationalists.

Allyson@ada-l· May 19

I note also the biased BBC say James is an unknown but hey a year of broadcast appearances says otherwise. Maybe the BBC don't watch the telly

2. "Thank you for your reply. I didn't intend this as feedback. I intended to log an official complaint. Could you please escalate it as such?" 3.

This is not an acceptable response. Would you like me to send you the video again?
I have never seen any presenter lie so blatantly or be so openly disparaging as this presenter was.
He was clearly and blatantly contemptuous of a photo and called it 'propoganda' and fake news'. This is Trumpian and utterly shameful. He spat these lies out with utter venom. The fact he was wrong and refused to apologise is almost an aside in this and is not even the main issue.

Please escalate my complaint.

Allyson@ada-l· May 14

1.

I would like to make an official complaint;
The 'journalist' Sam Coates accused the Prime Minister of 'fake news' and lied about the source of photographs on screen, he did this repeatedly.
This was completely false information and absolutely dripping with bias. I have never hear a UK presenter so clearly hateful of the government.
6pm, 12/5/26. Video attached.

Allyson@ada-l· May 14

Then when I replied again asking for it to be escalated:

I am sorry to read that you are not satisfied with our reply.

While we have provided you with Sky News response on this matter and have nothing further to add, we do appreciate you taking the time to share your views on our broadcast.

Sky News is regulated by Ofcom and we take our responsibilities very seriously. As a viewer you are welcome to contact Ofcom to discuss any content on Sky News or any other broadcast channel.

Allyson@ada-l· May 14

Then when I explained it wasn't 'feedback' but complaint:

Thank you for contacting us about Sky News’ coverage on Tuesday 12 May. We appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns.

We take complaints about accuracy and impartiality very seriously. The discussion you refer to was focused on political presentation and image management. Our journalists regularly scrutinise how governments and political parties present themselves publicly, and this forms an important part of our editorial role.

During the programme, the correspondent initially attributed the images to being supplied by the government. This was later clarified on air when it was established that the photographs were in fact distributed by PA, a reputable and independent news agency. We regret the earlier misattribution.

Sky News remains committed to accurate reporting and to fair and balanced scrutiny of all political parties. We do not seek to undermine trust in journalism, and we recognise the importance of being clear and precise when discussing issues such as media handling and political communications.

Thank you again for bringing your concerns to our attention.

Allyson@ada-l· May 14

So my complaint to Sky was a waste of time. First response:

Thank you for email to Sky News regarding Sam Coates.

Our teams are working hard to deliver fair, proportionate and balanced
reporting and we take that responsibility very seriously.

We are glad you have taken the time to let us know, feedback is welcome
good or bad and helps us gauge how our viewers feel about what we're
doing.
Your comments have been logged for the interest of our Sky News team.

Thanks again for taking the time to contact Sky and for sharing your
thoughts.

Not only is there this but he was also found to have lied about loads, including his hypnosis accreditation

The philological term ‘Semitic’ referred to a family of languages originating in the Middle East whose descendant languages today are spoken by millions of people mostly across Western Asia and North Africa. Following this semantic logic, the conjunction of the prefix “anti” with “Semitism” indicates antisemitism as referring to all people who speak Semitic languages or to all those classified as “Semites.” The term has, however, since its inception referred to prejudice against Jews alone.
