I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

The fate of future generations put in jeopardy because of ‘pressure from some investors.’
The identity of these investors should be made public so those future generations know who to vilify (and so our generation can put pressure on them to reconsider).

We’re all immune to it at this point but we have to remind ourselves that this is an abomination. A catastrophe. A grotesque corruption.
And a betrayal of the millions who fought and sacrificed in the great wars of the 20th Century to escape a world that works like this.
