‘There was no way the activists would allow Johnson to get away with this’
@Robert Robert:
“It is clear that there are elections shortly and that the BBC have a dog in the fight. With the Tories storming ahead in the opinion polls, and able to point to the success of the UK s vaccine rollout, there was no way that the activists there would allow Johnson to get away with this.
“The allegations that the BBC are front and centre of disseminating are nothing of importance. Johnson has nothing to reproach himself for.
“Where I do take issue with the PM is in his wetness in dealing with the BBC. The BBC Charter is being breached day in, day out. It has a solemn obligation for fairness, balance and impartiality. It is out of control. This is yet another example. As usual its opaque clarification does not amount to an apology.
