The Guardian view on the BBC World Service: this is London calling | Editorial Editorial: With just seven weeks before its funding runs out, the UK’s greatest cultural asset and most trusted international news organisation must be supported

Missed this last week. Another sign of Britain's crumbling decline. If the #WorldService goes off air, it'll be a big loss of soft power, trusted information and reassurance in dark times. And for what? Penny pinching? Bring it back under the financial remit of the Foreign Office and safeguard it.

One of Britain's greatest assets - viewed planet wide - could soon cease!

Tonight BBC #WorldService began saying “irregular immigrants” rather than “illegal” re undocumented people in US.
Glad that even Tory saboteurs who control #BBC are finally running scared.

Insomnia, so switched on the #BBC #WorldService but instead of a soporific documentary about eg Arctic Terns, I found 3 teenage twerps calling themselves science journalists doing a show of drivelling inanity in which they vie with each other over which basic science facts they pretend not to know

Both of the above articles relate to these journalists' #BBC #WorldService documentary "Into the Void: Putin's Foreign Fighters" youtu.be/y7ruSvJfn_g?... Once more it is a reminder of the excellent journalism of the World Service (despite serious funding cuts in recent years). 🧵 continues

A radical proposal for #bbcnews for @lisanandymp.bsky.social and @dcmsgovuk.bsky.social Nuke the nasty tone of much news journalism creeping in across #bbc news and give all news provision to the #worldservice or to @channel4news.bsky.social @itnproductions.bsky.social . That will change the tone.

Learning about turmeric/haldi this morning. A spice I probably don’t use as much as I should, I always cut it down slightly in recipes.

The cumin potatoes (geera aloo) the lady is making, sound delicious, I may make some for breakfast! 😊

What in the World - Can eco-tourism ever really be eco? - BBC Sounds Eco-tourism says it protects nature and supports local economies

OK so this bugged me a bit! Not in principle, in practice > Can #ecotourism ever really be #eco? #Podcast from #BBCWorldService - @BBC #WorldService why quote a dubious defrocked organisation for its definition from the start & some incorrect stats! Due diligence pls! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

#BBC #Worldservice #Newsday I'm curious as to why you used #dollars instead of #pounds when discussing increased cost of burial plots in Wolverhampton? I've heard dollars being used several times now by the BBC when talking about something that doesn't have any global context whatsoever.

#BBC #Worldservice #Newshour you are my sanity in this inverse world of truth and lie! #JamesCoomarasamy, you need a bloody medal for not letting people blatantly lie on national radio. Just listening to you tackling Fred Fleitz gaslighting us about #Trump on #Zelensky. You are brilliant and brave!

Checked out the bbc.com app, and there are no links to any BBC radio station other than the #WorldService and #BBCr4. There are a few podcasts available.
There is no access to the #BBCSounds archive which means in particular for me, no Mark Steel's In Town, etc... No idea where to find The Archers.

#R4Today

What #JeremyHunt seems to be trying hard NOT to say is that #UK’s role in the world has been damaged, perhaps beyond repair, by #Tory cuts to, and political interference in, the #BBC - particularly the #WorldService, by Tory #Brexit, and by Tory (and now #Labour) support for #Israel.

Ange Delivers, Amorim Sticks, Pope University, Chalamet Sings, Colin Healy Exclusive Welcome to our weekly World Service taster menu which this week includes an in depth look at a Europa League final result that's produced so many talking points for both teams, US Murph on the New York sports fan and Pope University, Paul Flynn on Dublin's (surprise?) win over Galway, and Timothee Chalamet being a good sport. We also had an exclusive interview with Colin Healy. Last year, Colin’s wife, Kelly, sadly passed away after a long battle with leukaemia. After taking a few weeks off work, he returned to his job as assistant coach to Ireland manager, Eileen Gleeson. In December, the FAI announced they wouldn’t be renewing Colin’s contract. Colin sat down with us this week to speak about what’s been an extremely difficult year in his personal and professional life, and about how he now wants to draw a line in the sand and get on with his life. For access to all our shows go to secondcaptains.com/join – its 5 euro a month with no sign-up fee, no minimum stay, no sneaky contract, and no ads. --- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

INTERVIEW: @daveclarkeofficial.bsky.social's seminal 'World Service' was released on this day in 2001. A couple of years back, we caught up with the Baron himself to discuss how it came together. #daveclarke #techno #electro #worldservice

Original post on mastodon.rhys.wtf

fwiw, I think this is stupid.

The BBC has been cutting back its news and journalism offerings with reckless abandon for years now, with the World Service having faced already swathing cuts through the Tory years.

The wisdom of trading foreign aid for defence spending has some worthwhile nuance […]

They are trying to work out “What does God do when I prey?”
It’s too early for this.
