Rejected petition Note the BBC is neither being fair nor objective in covering those voting Remain
Remain voters are now having their views ignored and airbrushed out of current political debate by The BBC who are neither being objective nor fair.
We invite The House of Commons to compare coverage of Brexit opponents on the BBC with fairer coverage produced by Sky News and ITV News
More details
Evidence of this has been sparse or non existant coverages of Large Public Demonstrations on London, Manchester and around The UK.
Similarly, The BBC ignored the defeat of The Government on releasing the Secret Brexit Studies.
The BBC trumpet that they are a source of "trusted UK and World News", Parliament should ensure this is restored.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The BBC is an independent body governed by a Royal Charter. Under the terms of that Charter, the BBC is operationally and editorially independent of government and there is no provision for the government to intervene in the BBC’s day-to-day operations.
