UK culture secretary sounding like US govt?

[Bob Jersey]

Lisa Nandy, who came on with the Labour PM Starner last year, ripped BBC's recent "How To Survive A Warzone" documentary and the livestream that involved the punk rappers Bob Vylan, f'rinstance... at least seven times in the last year, Nandy has circumvented the Beeb's board to level her criticisms, comparably to our admin's attacks on public media, altho since she is also an MP, she doesn't have to go as far to influence fellow lawmakers:

Legitimate protests are encouraged. And the Scottish punk groups made valid arguments. But the “death to…” chants were way over the line.

You have to remember that Labour has been less socialist and more centrist going back to the Tony Blair era-and I would say that the Tories are now more center-right as Farage's Reform party is the UK equivalent of MAGA. The Liberal Democrats only seem to have traction when they can make coalitions with Labour.

And closer to home, the same can be said about those people who idolize that Mangione kid.

Not sure if Nandy reported "Warzone" to Ofcom, but the regulator ruled the programme misled viewers, agreeing with an earlier internal review that it should have disclosed that one of the young people involved is the son of a Hamas official:
