Do you know, I have noticed a certain thawing in the BBC’s attitude to the American entrepreneur, Elon Musk. I wonder what might have occasioned such a sharp change in mindset of late? It is all a bit of a mystery.
I never believed that Musk would bung Reform UK £100 million, and as the weeks went by the promise seemed to become more and more vague. But that’s not what this article is about. It’s about Tommy Robinson – or, as the BBC always refers to him, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon. Why do they insist upon doing this? What about all those blokes who were once called Laurence and are now called Loretta? Do they ever say: “Laurence Smith who now calls himself Loretta Smith”? Of course, they do it because they hate Robinson. And they may have cause to do so. But perhaps Robinson should put a wig on and change his name simply to Mrs Robinson. I wonder if the BBC would desist then? If the CEO of BBC News, the absolutely brilliant Deborah Turness, is reading this, perhaps she might explain the anomaly.
