Let's bomb Russia, now!
Some of us are old enough to remember when Kenny Everett was the warm up act at a Tory conference and joked about nuking Russia. Many leading comedians and actors were and are openly Tory or Labour supporters and campaign for them both at and in between elections.
Corporal Jones for Labour and Captain Mainwaring for the Conservatives, this has been going on for years.
Supporting Unicef or Refugee charities is OK, the BBC will even broadcast your charity appeal. But actually complaining about how asylum seekers are treated in this country is beyond the pale? Really?
The BBC needs to think things through, having Tories in top positions who opening support the government and give the Conservative party huge sums but are treated as impartial and then treating celebrities like this, for raising concerns about extremely contentious and illegal policies, is not going to end well.
Economics, trade and Brexit, not necessarily in that order but the dog always comes first.
