      I forget the exact reasons but I believe it was due to a perceived bias. I don’t read BBC so can’t comment but they described it similarly to how a liberal would describe Fox News.

        When I lived in the UK what I felt among friends is that the BBC had a perceived bias towards the Conservative Party, although this may simply be a bias towards the government regardless of who in power. It’s been the Tories for the past decade before Starmer.
