BBC Edits Trump Speech Like Prison Riot Director

In a BBC Panorama documentary titled 'Trump: A Second Chance?' aired just before last year’s US election, clips from Donald Trump’s January 6, 2021 speech were spliced to suggest he promised to 'walk to the US Capitol' and 'fight like hell' alongside supporters. The BBC now faces MPs’ grilling over alleged systemic bias and serious editorial concerns. Meanwhile, back in the UK, Wandsworth prison—a ‘model’ facility supposed to hold 963 men—keeps roughly 1,500 jammed like sardines, 85% not even sentenced yet. At times inmates enjoy ‘luxury’ 22-hour cell lockdowns. Lisa Nandy weighed in: 'Even one is too many,' vaguely referring to who exactly? We’re all just terrible drivers of truth here.
