  1. When the radio turned on this morning, I thought the station was GBTV, then I realised it was just Nick Robinson on @BBCRadio4 #R4Today obsessing about the Reform party, immigrant boats and whatever the rightwing tabloids are currently spewing out

  2. @wood5y
    I have found a significant improvement to quality of life since I stopped listening to #r4today

  3. I deeply regret losing one minute of my life listening to #fascist and #racist Rupert Lowe on #R4Today earlier on this morning.

    He is clearly a very disturbed - and disturbing - man.

  4. Inevitable discussion of #RodLiddle on #R4Today. You can be as hurtful and scummy as you like, but the Beeb will gush about you if you “write well”.

  5. And why is #r4today giving (yet again) such prominence to a hair-brained scheme that has little chance to ever be implemented? A GE is unlikely soon and the threat of Reform winning it is apparently receding. What is the justification for legitimising it?

  6. "You will most certainly have spotted the gratuitous gratitude expressed by host and guest to each other. Increasingly rare is the guest who doesn’t feel the need to curry favour with his interviewer. “Thank you SO much for inviting me on!” has become standard."

    Cringeworthy isn't it, Mr Humphrys?

  7. In the interests of balance, there should be some people invited to speak on BBC Radio 4 Today to remind us what a hateful witch Ann Widdecombe was.

  8. I was half asleep this morning when I heard the presenter on BBC Radio4 Today announcing the next guest as Clickity Uno. Took me quite a while to work out it was Claire Coutinho.

  9. @ChrisMayLA6 His predecessor Carswell is already a think tank CEO in the USA and was shilling for Garage on #r4today this morning.

  10. Good morning everyone. it’s about time that Count Binface took out the trash In Clacton… #r4today #bbcbreakfast #Farage #Reform

  11. Lovely to hear the #Wiltshire tones of Phil Harding on #r4today, unlike the awful shouty man football commentary from last night's match.

  12. CW: BBC Cuts

    Ok, I haven't listened to Radio 4 for about 10 years, so I have no dog in this fight anymore... But #TheWorldTonight was vastly more intelligent, thoughtful and analytical than #R4Today so if you were to cut one of them… theguardian.com/media/2026/jun

  13. The frothing sound of presenters on BBC Radio 4 Today taking about the SpaceX IPO whilst failing to point out it is a massive scam with the goal of funnelling as much money as possible from ordinary people to Musk, or pointing out the company makes a loss and its massive rocket has yet to make it to orbit.

  14. “It’s 6am, you’re listening to #r4today. Coming up:

    - An incredibly depressing lead news story which will make you want to go back to sleep;
    - A thinly-vailed advert for a BBC television drama;
    - And [play snatch of irritating loud music] we play a snatch of irritating loud music to wake you up and annoy you”

    Every. Sodding. Day.

  15. Awoke to #r4today reporting that the UK Government will block opposition to “green energy schemes including nuclear, solar and wind”.

    👏🏻 Nuclear 👏🏻 power 👏🏻 is 👏🏻 not 👏🏻 green 👏🏻 energy 👏🏻

  16. Happy #FollowBackFriday everyone. The MP for Palantir North won’t have your interests at heart first and foremost. He will though have these interests at heart… Please follow for a follow back. #bbcpm #C4news #newsnight #r4today #bbcbreakfast #Starmer #Labour #Streeting #Palantir

  17. This morning, #r4Today interviewed Chris Curtis, Labour MP for Milton Keynes North, and Chair of the Labour Growth Group.

    He rhetorically seeks answers to “Why it is that we’ve had nearly two decades of economic stagnation”.

    I feel pretty damn sure he is entirely disinterested in the real picture (mastodon.social/@urlyman/11399), and that we’ll pay the price for him and his colleagues believing it’s still the 1990s

  18. The late Robin Williams and zackpolanski.bsky.social are entirely correct. As in America, here in the UK it’s the same. All the main parties are bought and paid for: Labour, the Tories, Reform On Thursday vote green for a party that puts people and communities first. #r4today #bbcbreakfast #PMQs

  19. Not a word I use lightly, but what an absolute cunt Nigel Farage is. When are our msm going to start challenging him properly? We are sleepwalking towards very dark times #r4today

  20. Food, flight and fuel prices could take months to return to normal, experts claim

    Sky high prices are hitting the public with massive hikes in food, flight and fuel prices. But despite…
