  1. Since 70s, Porn Baron #DavidSullivan of #WestHamUnited #football club, bragged to journalists - incl Editors/Directors of his Sport Pornpapers - Drew Robertson, #tonylivesey (now of #bbc5live) etc., that he'd had sex with EVERY single female who'd worked for him!

    See page from Mark Killick's 1994 book The Sultan of Sleaze.

    DS's conquests almost certainly include 100s of underage girls sent to him looking for work.

    How many were underage, truly willing, or coerced?

  2. @jon well, the cancellation of this one railway project is troubling me. It seems that the UK is totally loosing track of the fight against climate change.
    I heard one hour of discussion on the #HS2 today on #BBC5live and nobody discussed the necessity of developing a much needed alternative to long distance car travel. One line of hs train line is not sufficient anyway to start the transition in traffic. Would need an aligned and coordinated network throughout the country.

  3. Hey @BBC5Live,

    Let your friends over at BBC Sport know that we miss them here on Mastodon. MOTD need to join for sure.

    And being a public service broadcaster you should really be on the likes of @peertube and @pixelfed instead of Youtube and Instagram.

  4. As a regular listener to #BBC5Live, one thing I've missed out on after leaving Twitter was that social media interaction. But now they (and a few other) #BBC accounts have joined the Fediverse, even if it is just for an initial 6-month experiment - @BBC5Live 👋

  5. Some parts of the BBC have decided to join the Fediverse on their own instance social.bbc/about

    "This is an experiment - we will run it for 6 months, and then look at how much value it has provided, how much work it requires to maintain and then decide whether and how to continue."

    Accounts being created include:

    @BBCRadio4
    @BBC5Live

    And a few others.

    Edit: confirmed bbc.co.uk/rd/blog/2023-07-mast

  6. #bbc5live #BBCNews The BBC is now a total travesty of a public broadcaster. Its complete subservience to the alt-right over #GaryLineker will be judged harshly by history as well as decent people.
    And now this...

  7. Listening to #BBC5Live where they're discussing a light-hearted piece about visiting restaurants and ordering the same thing as your dining partner. Journalist Harry Wallop says (paraphrasing) 'I don't order the same thing as my wife as I want to have a taste, just a fork full, of her meal'.

    Mate, if you were dining with me that fork is more likely to end up in your head than my food. If you want to try it then order it yourself.

  8. Shurely shome mishtake on the #BBC5Live... Hinting that #Brexit might have been some sort of mistake? All those #brexiteers who "weren't told" despite the rest of us telling them it was lies...

  9. CW: Ukpol assault westminster

    Listening to the ever wonderful Naga on #bbc5live . Mp Charlotte Nichols saying that when she first came to westminster (very recently), she was sat down and handed a list of about 40 mps she's not safe to be alone with, not in a lift alone with, not to accept a drink from, cross party. She says there's a well established #whispernetwork in Westminster to help women navigate life as an mp without assault. What the actual. #ukpol #politics
