So the Prime Minister of 10 years standing is answering his final question at PMQs and what does the BBC do? Cut away to a trailer and then the tennis. This is a complete abdication of its public service responsibilities.
It has denied viewers the chance to witness a historic moment. Indeed, it is hard to see what event could have justified cutting away in these circumstances. What is certain is that a second round tennis match doesn’t come anywhere close.
There is, rightly, collective outrage about this. The BBC needs to admit that its judgement was completely off on this one.
Update: The BBC has apologised.
