More Question Time bias as Fiona Bruce pats Brandon Lewis: ‘I’m just teasing you’
Cute: But would she show such consideration to Diane Abbott?
What the actual …?
If there was ever an example of BBC bias towards the Conservatives, it’s this:
Asked a difficult question by a BBC Question Time audience member, former Tory Party chairman Brandon Lewis struggled to answer.
So presenter/chair Fiona Bruce patted his arm and said, “I’m just teasing you.”
Where’s the impartiality in that?
Where’s the responsibility to hold those in power to account?
We have seen this on BBCQT before, and the Corporation might legitimately say it’s bias by the programme-maker Mentorn.
But then, the BBC gave Mentorn the contract to make it, so ultimate responsibility lies with Auntie. Doesn’t it?
There’s a full story on Skwawkbox: Video: Tory MP struggles with BBCQT question. Presenter pats his arm, “It’s ok, I’m teasing you” and moves on | The SKWAWKBOX

Does anyone actually like Fiona Bruce? She comes across as the most fake, cold presenter. I’m staggered she got the Antiques Roadshow let alone QT
