Nigel #Farage has unlimited access to broadcast media through his illegal and unethical involvement with #GBNews.

There is no reason ever for the #BBC to platform him other than to hold him to account for his lies, racism, etc.

And for every hour he's platformed, #LibDems, #GreenParty, etc should be getting at least the same amount of time, once their defecit is cleared. Yes, the BBC owe other parties and politicians thousands of hours of free, uncritical broadcast time.

Let's have some balance back!

@distinctdipole There's a petition about this: https://www.libdems.org.uk/bbc
Doubt it'll do much, but I signed.
Balance the BBC

The BBC is our national broadcaster, people expect and deserve balanced news coverage.

@Josh_Gallagher Signed and shared! Thank you  

Shame they didn't use 38degress or change.org as it would likely reach a much wider audience.

@distinctdipole Agreed. They often do this with petitions, and I think as a result miss out on voters who identify more strongly with other parties. They need to decide if a particular petition is a drive for engagement and names on an emailing list, or if it's design to effect actual change. If the latter, use 38degrees or change.org as you say.

@Josh_Gallagher Exactly! I'm a Green Party supporter and haven't even considered the Lid Dems since Nick Clegg sold everyone out in the name of his "career".
