Too easy for Josh to dismiss Shamima blaming so many of her issues on the press but outside of the BBC the UK has what is known as the “gutter press,” or tabloids, similar to FOX here, and they are indeed extremely exploitative and biased, and do their best to rile their own “hillbillies” up with their own stories about brown-skinned hoards coming to overwhelm the “real” citizens.
