- It is entirely legitimate for the Home Secretary to highlight the overt racism that she receives for taking part in public life.
- Everybody should oppose that racism against her, whatever their politics.
- But it is important to make several other points about this argument about racism.

Love Rishi, of all people, saying the BBC, “misjudged the nation’s mood, mishandled its people and mismanaged its own processes.” Admittedly, he's an expert on all three counts.😂

The corporation enhances Britain’s standing and appeal, but its unique status requires a unique approach to ensuring trust. It must challenge its own failings

Research on this is clear: the uncertainty created by this policy will lead to people integrate less into British society. It is trading-off the reasonable policy goal of integration for the useless symbolism of immigration numbers. Bad policy to appease the far right.
