Stoolies

No, not a late period performance by Don and Phil, but BBC Today presenter Nick Robinson and his former boss, Tortoise Media founder James Harding discussing media partisanship at a conference yesterday afternoon.

Other hacks were busy elsewhere, but Matthew Elliott, formerly of Vote Leave, is re-defining himself as a journalist, and was in attendance. 

He tweeted "Interested to learn that people over 40 tend to think the BBC is biased to the left, and people under 35 think it’s biased to the right."

This, Matthew, is a simple product of the Corbyn/Farage division of large chunks of British society.
