BBC had too many Remainers and not enough Brexiteers on Question Time, Richard Sharp tells MPs

The BBC often had too many Remainers and not enough Brexiteers on Question Time, the broadcaster s incoming chairman told MPs today. Richard Sharp, who has been chosen by the Government as its preferred candidate for the post, said the breadth of the coverage on Brexit was largely incredibly balanced . However, he admitted he thought there were times when the BBC s representation of voices in the debate was unbalanced . Mr Sharp added he thought the Question Time programme had sometimes featured more Remainers than Brexiteers. The BBC has previously been accused of Brexit bias after it allegedly drafted in more Remain than Leave supporters in certain panels.
