Balance the BBC

The BBC is our national broadcaster, people expect and deserve balanced news coverage.

It's clear to everyone the BBC is giving Nigel Farage and Reform far too much coverage. Reform UK only have 4 of the 250 opposition MPs, but Nigel Farage accounts for 60% of the BBC website's mentions of opposition leaders.

The BBC should have to balance its political news so it doesn’t boost Nigel Farage’s dangerous, divisive politics.

There are special Ofcom rules on balance at election time, these rules should apply all year round so people can trust the BBC.

We the undersigned call on the BBC to fairly balance its political news coverage all year round, not just at election time.
