How pathetic of the BBC

Another week, another Sunday Live and another vexatious episode with the BBC. They have this habit, you see, of demanding 'exclusivity' on an interview - a habit I've always found slightly curious as our elected parliamentarians might, at a stretch, belong in some way to their constituents but not, one would hope, to the BBC.

I'm telling you all of this because I did have Vince Cable MP.  That was until the Politics Show declared him 'theirs'….

How pathetic.  I would imagine that the Politics Show gets an even lower audience than Marr does.

It is one thing for the BBC to have a guaranteed £3.5bn of our money, quite another for it to have exclusivity over politicians it chooses to interview.
