        If only the BBC held the opposition to the same standards while being institutionally racist.

        Yet again, he doesn't answer the question, and tries to deflect attention onto others. He and Trump must have the same tutors.

        How about a petition to have a referendum on BBC's impartiality while we are at it. What a disgrace this organisation has become #BBC #Bias #propoganda #agenda #referendum

        It’s reporting on parliament. This is something that happened in paraliament. How is it biased just to show you a clip from parliament?

        Because it is something he said a long time ago. That was given press coverage at that time. Now it is being dug up again to be used as a weapon against Boris Johnson. The BBC of course will highlight this in their story and focus on this. It should be a non-story.

        It showed his reply too. It also got a standing ovation from parliament, a rare and newsworthy thing.

        If we stay in the EU it'll soon be a criminal offence to criticise anything related to religious dress - animal slaughter - migration etc.

        A diverse cabinet says the man who deselects anyone who disagrees with him! So how does that work?
