Rejected petition Public Enquiry about BBC bias coverage of BREXIT

The BBCs coverage of BREXIT leans heavily on the side of remain when the greater part of voters (over 17 million) opted for leave.

More details

News panels are widely in favour of remain and are selected with more remain guests than leave. The coverage of the one million strong London ‘Leave means leave’ protest was shocking in contrast with the remain demonstration one week earlier. The parliament website petition to revoke article 50 was given wide coverage on their news yet the on line petition to leave with no deal was not mentioned.
