And it's the anti-Lineker and anti-BBC brigade that (deliberately) distract from the real issue by blaming the BBC rather than defending the arguably indefensible policy being discussed.
The far bigger issue with BBC impartiality is the known bias of the (non-MP) guests repeatedly asked on Question Time, Politics Live and LK on Sunday. He may have been asked but to my knowledge Lineker has never appeared on these, despite other entertainment figures being asked. If he said the same thing on Question Time as he tweeted out would that be seen as a problem?
