    (Yes, it is that Simply Red)
    You see the ridiculous lengths the British Establishment will go to protect their mistakes, even so far as broadcasting this show in the name of 'Balance'
    This is the same infamous balance that has the BBC both siding Russian Propaganda and America Nazis.

  2. “The fact that the BBC felt the need to take an ‘impartial’ stance between a man who broke his wife’s nose and the woman whose nose was broken, tells you everything you need to know about how warped and ludicrous this notion is.”

  3. Rubbish! #FionaBruce did NOT provide a "legal" clarification of comments made re #StanleyJohnson. She just said that his friends called it a "one off". It wasn't. And she should not have quoted the wife-beater's friends! #DomesticViolence #BBCQT

    BBC News: Fiona Bruce to step back from Refuge after 'storm' over Stanley Johnson remark on Question Time BBC News - Fiona Bruce to step back from Refuge after 'storm' over Stanley Johnson remark on Question Time

  4. I'd like to see #FionaBruce step back from #BBCQT, but doubt that will happen. Within the BBC and wider English nomenklatura, Bruce is untouchable, and she knows it!

  5. "the guy has been accused of that, but if he did it, he only did it once."
    Nice try #FionaBruce, but you said what you said....

  6. If you're "legally obliged" to make a flippant, dangerous statement as #FionaBruce did last week, perhaps it's time to have a word with your employer... Or resign.

  7. Now that #FionaBruce has stepped down from honorary role at #DomesticViolence charity over remarks she made re #StanleyJohnson on #BBCQT, surely it's time for her to quit the show, too?!

    #BBC #FionaBruce #GaryLineker
    They must know how bad this all looks and have made a decision to not care, pleasing Tory bigwigs in a display of fealty is more important than the reputation of a 100 year old institution.

  9. "#FionaBruce is deeply sorry about what she said......." said a Woman's Refuge charity who values celebrity above decency....

  10. Such a very disappointing reaction from #RefugeCharity regarding #FionaBruce minimising the #DomesticViolence carried out by #StanleyJohnson regarding putting his wife in hospital, and we all know that "one off" doesn't exist when it comes to spousal assault.
    #BBC apology for "limited sports" is nothing as more and more are supporting #GaryLinekker and his comparison of #ToryCriminals as #ToryFascists

  11. #FionaBruce minimising #DomesticAbuse on #BBCQT & giving only the 'context' that #StanleyJohnson said breaking his wife's nose was a one off incident....

    No mention that his wife Charlotte said he beat her many times over many years - effectively silencing a victim of domestic violence.

    Why has #Refuge not sacked Bruce?

    Obviously the #BBC won't - despite censoring #GaryLineker for telling the truth about the #ToryFascistDictatorship using 1930's #Germany's political tactics & rhetoric.

  12. When did the #BBC, still pretending to be the world's leading public service broadcaster, turn into such pusillanimous failures, mere sockpuppets for Tory Central Office?

  13. It's fucking incredible really, isn't it? Defending a notorious wife-beater on a political show you're chairing because 'Tories never do wrong' and it's your job every episode to get that message across.
    That very, very Posh way they say the most awful things like we're all supposed to agree with them.
    "BUT, it was a one off...." 🤮
    #FionaBruce #StanleyJohnson

  14. Amazing what you can get away with when you a former Prime Minister's creepy dad.
    Amazing who will defend you on National TV too.

    Decent #Labour politicos are angry, but will they be told off by the Front Bench for causing a scene?
    #FionaBruce #StanleyJohnson

  16. Imagine if a working class man said what Fiona Bruce did, funny how in #British Culture some people can get away with ANYTHING based on their class and connections....😡

  17. Today on Clown Island....
    "Domestic abuse is OK if you're the father of a former Prime Minister. Those Transes though.....they're the real dangers, amirite?"

  18. ‘David Cameron made the referendum policy because he didn’t want to risk losing 10 or 15 seats to UKIP and look where it has got us’
    This 16-year-old says the Conservative Party are responsible for Brexit. #bbcqt

    This is from 2019 but is still so relevant.
