The BBC have published their list of party-leader-interviews-with-Nick-Robinson, without slot for Sir Keir Starmer. An outsider might say this is the BBC trying to bounce Labour into coming to the wicket. Keir's broadcast specialist is Matthew Doyle (BA History and Film Studies, University of East Anglia), who worked for Labour on the 2001 and 2005 General Elections, then as an adviser to David Blunkett and Tony Blair, followed by five years in The Office of Tony Blair. Then came a spell spinning in Europe for David Miliband's International Rescue, before joining Sir Keir in 2021.
Could he be being difficult - over day and slot ? Surely not in principle ?
