- Balanced?
Hallo, I listen to the show to try and get a plurality of views. I feel I must protest, however, when Sir Richard’s hurt feelings from the Brexit debacle cause him to take a pop at the BBC for some perceived historical hurt. Surely as an intelligence specialist he understands that when the preponderance of evidence is on one side of an argument the reporting becomes different as the only people on the other tend to have extreme views c.f. The climate emergency

Very right wing, Dearlove lives in a different century. I used to be a fan of Kate but lately I’ve started thinking she’d be more at home on GB News.
