Description

Reform UK has accused the BBC of bias following a Question Time episode, alleging the audience was stacked with illegal immigrants. Zia Yusuf, policy chief, lodged a formal complaint, comparing it to inviting burglars to discuss law and order. Nigel Farage echoed these sentiments, claiming the BBC gave a platform to people the majority wishes to keep out. The complaint highlighted a breach of the BBCs impartiality duty, questioning the selection of contributors and audience members. The BBC defended the program, stating it featured a local audience with diverse views and experiences, including those with direct asylum system experience. The incident has sparked a debate about media impartiality and audience selection in public broadcasting.
