A pick-up from the NewsAgents interview with Culture Secretary Michelle Donelan, defending BBC non-executive Sir Robbie Gibb for berating Newsnight producers over coverage of asylum seekers:
“So what it might have been that he was trying to say, I wasn’t there, I don’t know, is you can’t only present Brexit in a negative light, which would have been defending impartiality, which I would be completely comfortable with because you’ve got to present both sides and you can’t just pick a side and then go down that.
“So it may well be that it was that and I know Robbie Gibb and that is my instinct of what he would have been saying because he’s so passionate about impartiality.”
