WHAT THE BBC SHOULD SAY

Whilst the row about the BBC's questionable partiality and bias over Mr Trump runs on, may I draw your attention to portions of the  Select January 6th Committee Final Report and Supporting Materials Collection. Its recommendations section begins: As our Report describes, Donald J. Trump, John Eastman, and others corruptly attempted to violate the Electoral Count Act of 1887 in an effort to overturn the 2020 Presidential Election. Herewith is a section of its findings:

In addigtion the Committee found:

This is exactly what the Panorama program pointed out with its edit of Mr Trumps speech. These were the words spoken and it is clear from the entire enquiry what the likely outcome might be. Is it any wonder his vindictive behaviour over the final report. He cannot sue the United States Congress for libel and hence he is turning on the BBC. In addition any claim he might have about damage to reputation is nullified by his convictions on 34 criminal charges, and findings against himself for libel and sexual assault. What possible financial damage a BBC program, from some time ago, may have caused him, is less than none.

 So can we please get back to reality. In my view the BBC should take its advice from General Anthony Clement McAuliffe when replying to the German Army’s request for surrender at Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge, and simply send Mr Trump’s lawyers a one word letter “NUTS”
