The BBC has come under fire for “ignoring” far-left extremism after it branded Reform UK as “far-right”.
Joining Patrick Christys on GB News, former Mumford and Sons member Winston Marshall, discussed the broadcaster’s grovelling apology for branding Richard Tice’s “far-right”.
He said “far-left” groups have been taking over the streets of London “every week” since the Hamas terror attack in Israel on October 7.
“Not only that, you will remember in March 2021 when various far-left groups in Bristol attacked a police station and tried to burn it down”, he added.
POLL OF THE DAY: Is the BBC becoming a puppet for the Left? YOUR VERDICT

“A police officer had a lung punctured and several bones broken, that story doesn’t get reported.
“It’s completely ignored. I actually went to one of Posie Parker’s speaking events, a woman who is constantly slandered and libelled as far-right.
“I saw the counter-protesters, they were holding signs, quite literally, with Lenin on their placards.
“Lenin who, as Robert Conquest, the historian noted, killed about 12 million people and began the Great Terror of the Soviet Union.
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:“He even started the gulags. Far-left extremists are given a complete pass in the UK. It’s ignored.”
Apologising for the labelling of Reform, the BBC said in a statement: “In an article about the Liberal Democrats’ spring conference we wrongly described the political party Reform UK as far right when referring to polling.
“This sentence was subsequently removed from the article as it fell short of our usual editorial standards.
“Reform describes itself on its website as “a national political party offering commonsense policies on immigration, the cost of living, energy & national sovereignty”.
In an exclusive poll for GB News membership readers, an overwhelming majority (98 per cent) of the 945 voters thought the BBC is becoming a puppet of the Left, while just two per cent thought it wasn't.
