very misleading headline compared to the actual content. It wasn't Luton airport's fault his wheelchair was lost. They offered him a wheelchair which he declined and then decided to make a spectacle of himself to evoke sympathy.He didn't want to be pushed but he is a para athlete so he could have wheeled himself through the airport. There is a problem with airports and airlines assisting wheelchair users but this isn't one of them and smacks of a compo claim. I reckon he was told he didn't have a legitimate claim. [Link] I doubt Luton airport made those changes in 6 days.

YouTubers Jake Paul and Erika Costell break-up I've never heard of them and it must be a sign of the times that "YouTubers" are now headline makers

Why is news from the USA main stories on the BBC? (see attachment). Surely the BBC should focus on news from the UK? Or is the real reason the journalists are SO obsessed with Donald Trump that they have to concentrate on that instead? Mexicans migrating to the US is not of interest to UK readers! More left-wing activism methinks, not journalism. Edited by Penge Eagle (09 Nov 2018 1.55am)

Danny Jules John is in trouble amid claims of bullying. This is not the first time this gentleman has been in trouble he was convicted of assault in 2008. However the good old Beeb chose to overlook this in selecting him to star in one of their hottest shows. At seems you can be given a second chance, unless of course it's a misguided racist remark then you will never be seen on the screens again.

You are correct like lots of other non news stories on the BBC. Not of fan of Tommy but I doubt the BBC would ever invite him and I certainly would not defend him if he attacked the bin men. I guess I am griping because this is a plum job and the guy has history so why was he offered it over others? Also he is not a novice dancer so its hardly a stretch for him to do this. But maybe your right I have a cold so maybe I am a little touchy today.

If this is true then she should sue. Of course it could be that the client wanted a more experienced lawyer and she interpreted that way.

More social justice and more stories from the US. I thought the BBC was a UK broadcaster? 'Ezra Miller's gender-bending red carpet look.' [Link] 'Nineteen black judges elected in Texas' [Link] The BBC just LOVE promoting the Obamas: 'Michelle Obama reveals daughters were conceived by IVF' [Link]
