Maybe, but I'm not sure GL would concede his tweet was intemperate, to be honest.
Looks to me like he took care to split his complaints into two parts.
The first that he thinks the policy is 'cruel' the second relating to the dog whistle language that is being used to promote the policy.
The former is a matter of opinion and he's entitled to it. The latter is hard to argue against.when you listen to some of the words spoken by ministers.
So hard to argue against, in fact, that the press isn't trying. Instead it's pretending that the he called the policy something from 1930s Germany.
