Carol Vorderman Instagram – The BBC has been under attack long before President Trump
Clip 1: Lewis Goodall explains how Robbie Gibb pretty much went after him – giving the example of how – “no one is worried about what Zack Polanski or the Green party or even the Labour party might say about this, because all of the political pressure comes from one direction”

Clip 3: Emily Maitlis pointing out how Robbie Gibb as a political appointee is far from impartial
Robbie Gibb was appointed under Boris Johnson’s government, and since we have seen the nature of news coverage change
For example, how is it Reform UK is on the BBC Sunday morning show, or general news, or on Questiontime so often? Not just Farage but unelected Muhammad Yusuf as well? While the Greens with just as many MPs are rarely on, and the LibDems who have dozens of MPs, barely get a look in?
The problem the BBC has is not a left-wing take over, it’s a right-wing takeover, trying to both sides everything instead of speaking facts and calling out fiction
The BBC may not be appreciated by all Brits but it is a global institution respected in many parts of the world for accuracy and integrity of reporting
And if we want to protect the BBC, then it’s not just rebuffing Trump, but also clearing out the political appointees, allowing the BBC to continue its focus on facts, and not both-sidesing populist drivel | Posted on 11/Nov/2025 17:57:26
