Given that the BBC endlessly gives platforms to lobbyists from the dark money junktanks without revealing their interests, shouldn't we be seeing such apologies every day?
Better still, how about not doing it? If they want to appear, we should know on whose behalf they are speaking.

Reform's former Leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, a 10.5 year jail term for taking bribes from the Kremlin.
Cosied up to authoritarian powers & traded principles for payoffs. Reform's leadership laughably claimed they barely knew Gill.
Will all this be on tomorrow's front pages?

Gill’s conviction for taking Kremlin money is yet more evidence of Russian influence in our politics, as the Russia report itself found. So when will Ministers finally investigate this wider interference? Why are we forced to pursue it in court? @carolecadwalla.bsky.social

Numerous stories in the UK of racist attacks on nurses, taxi drivers and people’s homes. Is it any wonder when so much of the media, including mainstream have demonised migrant communities on a daily basis. What did they expect? And some have the audacity to run the racist attack stories too!
