he is being treated unfairly. the bbc say, however, that he broken editorial guidelines and he s been seen to be too political, too partial command thatjust can t do. but it s hard to really see how the situation will resolve itself, isn t it? either gary lineker comes back to much of the day, or he doesn t. but at this stage there doesn t seem to be an indication that he wants to change what he says on social media, so it s really a face off between gary lineker and bbc bosses. trier? gary lineker and bbc bosses. very hard to see gary lineker and bbc bosses. very hard to see where gary lineker and bbc bosses. very hard to see where it gary lineker and bbc bosses. very hard to see where it goes. we will talk to somebody who is an expert on communications on this in a moment. we have heard a few snippets of tim davie, the director general, and others there, you have mentioned some of their statements. as anything been said to address these accusations that are coming from labour t
time. i have represented plenty of people factually innocent who have told dumb lies because in the moment the stress, the how does this look. do i look like i might be guilty, i know i m not guilty and you tell a distinctive lie. it is true it creates a problem because there are so many lies that have to flow from it. i think the video also raises some interesting questions yli, like with what happened in those few minutes. you have this kennel video, there doesn t seem to be anyone in distress, anyone yelling, anything unusual, and then all of a sudden this horrendous crime happened, what happened? as much as the prosecution wants to say this is some mastermind, this was not a very well thought out crime if, in fact, you are saying he calculated this. this was some big scheme to deflect from all of these financial crimes. so i think the defense can use the video to their advantage, although i agree it started out as a big problem. what do you think? laura, to go to mark s earlier p
