Presenter stands by tweets likening home secretary’s language to 1930s Germany, after BBC impartiality row
After publicly criticising the government’s asylum policy, embroiling the BBC in an impartiality row and fomenting widespread disruption to sports programming, Gary Lineker has said it was ‘“factually accurate” to call the plans “cruel”.
Weeks after the Match of the Day presenter was suspended for criticising government immigration policy, the former England footballer has said he stands by his remarks, in an interview with Men’s Health UK magazine.
