Things must be bad at the Beeb when they've got Priti Patel lecturing them on integrity.

Things must be bad at the Beeb when they've got Priti Patel lecturing them on integrity. I'm quite baffled as to why this story is such big news to be honest. It's utterly bizzare that the BBC are being held to higher standards than those who govern us. If this has been a politician and not a journalist it wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes in the news.

Because everyone on the right hates the BBC because it is "left-wing biased". Most of our press is right-wing so between them and the government, it's a great opportunity to bash the BBC and garner support for wider-ranging reforms which will suit them. I imagine it'll be a bit like changing the parliamentary boundaries in the "interests of better democracy", while ensuring primarily that those changes benefit the party making them! But you're right in that corruption, incompetence and cover-up in government is dismissed in half a day. That's the nature of where we are as a nation politically at the moment.

It's not going away any time soon. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67673801The court ruling relates to a freedom of information request made by journalist Andy Webb. He wants to see the emails BBC managers sent each other about Bashir over a two-month period in 2020. The BBC disclosed a small number of messages to Webb, but it has now emerged there were more than 3,000 emails. The corporation has said these contained information that was either "irrelevant" or "legally privileged". Judge Brian Kennedy ordered the BBC to release more emails - saying the corporation had been "inconsistent, erroneous and unreliable" in the way it dealt with the initial request. The judge added the BBC's response was a "cause for serious concern". In a statement, the BBC accepted mistakes had been made but says it is considering the judgement. The corporation says it has also apologised to Webb and the tribunal.
