    1. I love British values...tolerance, freedom, care for the vulnerable, strong sense of community, free health care at the point of delivery to all nationals. I love the BBC for maintaining standards of care regarding our governments hand holding with a racist, anti abortionist, wall building, protectionist, backward-looking Putin-admiring xenophobe.

    3. I vote for free tatoos for brexiters, that way they can tatoo the stars and stripes on their sad little quisling arses and proudly sell poor Britain out to their master at the White House.

    4. They are intent on destroying our relationships with good trade deal countries on purpose, because they are paid by the EU to do this, to keep us IN the EU etc when we clearly voted OUT, meaning that the BBC no longer supports the views of this country's majority!
      Nice programme on rescuing orphaned Chimps and poaching, but who will rescue US if they carry on like this!!???

  2. Its amazing that time and time again the BBC show its true face but its never held accountable ... As an organisation that is funded by the public it has to be neutral and provide just the facts - not an opinion

    1. Tony, the problem is clearly that you are so far down the rabbit hole that you are completely incapable of telling the difference between balanced reporting and bias. The BBC unlike nearly every other media organisation has always ensured that it devotes equal time to both sides of the debate and this is why remain people also say that the BBC is biased towards Brexit. If you do not want your views challenged, read the Daily Express.

    2. The BBC are manipulators.
      They report what makes them look good.
      They need to be self funded like all the other channels.
      No....... Because they wouldn't last five minutes.
      The BBC was so against BREXIT.
      And it stood out a mile in their reporting.
      No sorry..... BBC I don't like you/ want you or need you.
      You are yes men and liars ..... And bad ones at that.

  3. Dear Fellow Americans
    I was absolutely disgusted at the rude questions thrown at the president by the BBC left wing liberal British press. Believe me I speak to many people and most brits couldn't be more happier that Trump was elected as president. The British press does not reflect the views of the people of England ,they push their own evil agenda just like your CNN does. I was so angry and just kept thinking that I hope the Americans see through their garbage.
    We love trump over here. It's just that we have a liberal agenda working in the background. They can't even come to terms with brexit and are still trying to stop it from happening,even though the people have spoken. All we ever hear on the BBC is apocalyptic news on what will happen when we leave etc..
    Trump is spot on about the media and it's biased agenda reporting fake news all the time.

    3. Sandra Wilson, well said, spot on. I saw the original feed via The Daily Caller and also stated that this woman in no way represents the views of the majority of British people. Needless to say typical remoaner contradicted me, but most agreed. Pat D

    4. Sandra,
      I do not know a single friend or acquaintance who is happy that Trump has been elected. Of the few friends I have who did vote for England to leave the EU, none of them are happy about his election either.
      Trump showed his true colours in his petulant answer.

    5. Dear Fellow Americans , we would like a straight forward answer to a question asked by many concerned Brits and if your Orange moron can't be diplomatic without threatening relations, ask yourself where your country is going .

    6. Would you rather she asked him about the 400 Trillion people that flooded into Washington to watch the inauguration and then gave him a beautiful, standing ovation for a long time? or would you rather she asked him a dumbed down question like the US press do, along the lines of what did you have for dinner last night Sir?

    7. Yes! Totally in agreement. It's an on going agenda with the BBC. They never give it a rest. I was so proud of Theresa May's strength and dignity on her meeting with President Trump and his respectful reaction to her.This journalist could so easily have wrecked the carefully orchestrated press conference. I felt such shame by her deliberately provocative questions. Her input brought a shadow over the atmosphere of the occasion. Just sick and tired of the BBC's negativity regarding Brexit and Trump.

    8. You certainly dont speak for me, and I would bet you dont speak for many millions of Brits who think this man is a vile piece of work.

    9. Just one small point Sandra.. when you say the British press doesn't reflect the views of ENGLAND... I'm sure you mean doesn't reflect the views of the United Kingdom (Britian is not England)... which is Scotland England Wales and Nothern Ireland

    10. Sandra Wilson, you certainly don't speak for me. Trump is a vile man, and I know no one who 'loves' him. How dare you try to speak for British people.

      Delete
    11. Absolutely agree with everything Sandra Wilson said. The BBC have become a law unto themselves in recent years and certainly DO NOT represent the views of most British people. Laura Kuenssberg thinks she is so cutting edge and clever but the reality is the opposite. Her unprecedented assault on the new President wasn't just stupid, it could have been catastrophic but, thank the Lord, Donald Trump and a very embarrassed Theresa May handled it really well. I hope this clearly biased and self-absorbed reporter gets hauled over the coals for her behaviour or, better still, fired.

    14. Sandra Wilson are you crazy we do not support Trump in Britain he is a crazy homophobic, sexist, misogynistic mad man! Don't speak on our behalf when that is just your opinion!

    15. Sandra. Most Americans don't support Trump. He lost the popular vote. Only some kind of wild-eyed Fascist would think that state-sponsored torture is OK, that xenophobia is normal and that denying family planning to the 3rd world will reduce migration pressure.

      Do not link normal peoples disgust at the policies of the neo-nazi inhabiting the White House with Brexit. They are two different issues.

      As for the BBC, the institution is as neutral as possible. After all the Fascist Traitor Farage often gets a seat on Question Time.

    It doesn't matter if we agree with Trump on the immigratiin issue, the man is still seriously dodgy and it doesn't bode well if poor President Snowflake can't answer a perfectly reasonable question.

    1. Keunssberg only REPEATED what TRUMP himself has blared out more than once but which he cannot deal with. He was also asked if he agreed with the Iraq war and said he did which he has denied ever since all there is video proof.

    1. Laura spoke for me. She did her job as a journalist asking a powerful politician to account for his actions. Those who seek to muzzle the press are on a slippery slope. This is still a free country and Laura is part of that. If you don't like press freedom go and live somewhere they don't have it.

    2. She's not speaking on behalf of herself, she's employed by the British Public, they're the ones paying her too much money, as she should be INDEPENDENT every time she appears on camera.

Laura's questions were puerile, as if coming from a petulant 15 year old student. The BBC and Laura really need to grow up. As do the cretins who support her style of interviewing.

  20. Very strange World when Laura is classified as Left Wing! As for Trump, he should be so grateful that Sir Robin Day and David Frost have both passed away and Jeremy Paxman has moved on from politics. Any one of them would have had Trump for breakfast! Journalists are supposed to ask questions, the tougher the better. I would have thought that the Trump administration would be worried about who would be the next Woodward and Bernstein?

  22. The Conservative Party and BBC are same thing and this other bleachy head woman from the BBC is just a plant with a loaded question so Theresa May (or may not) does not have to ask it personally. and so performing what (May) be called a double side step. Scamming, lying, ugly face of UK politics and they must think the Trump and his team along with all of the British public are all stupid. Still don't suppose it matters who asked the question really as nobody voted for either of these bimbo's anyway did they? Why do people pay the BBC just to lie to them? I never watch ANY of their TV news or any other programs so I don't pay it so this means I have £145 to spend on my Internet and get all my news from alternative sources.

  23. Are you people seriously suggesting that journalists shouldn't challenge power? Then you've signed off against a dictatorship and you're too damned stupid to realise it. And - if Trump can't *answer* those challenges then he's failed too and his actions are probably illegitimate. That's how democracy works.

  32. Yet again, the population (this time the US) have spoken. Clearly, within the rule of law of the US, Donald Trump was elected on the basis of his manifesto. He could not have made his views clearer. Just as in the UK with the Brexit vote, a small minority cant accept this DEMOCRATIC vote. Donald Trump is doing precisely what he said he would - putting AMERICA FIRST. In the UK BREXIT WILL HAPPEN. So to all those who disagree with democracy, go and live somewhere else. You're very welcome to leave. My suggestion is that you all go to a Muslim country. Democracy MUST prevail. The people have spoken. GET USED TO IT!

  33. Should be sacked for bringing the BBC into disrepute ? But then, the BBC are not now a reputable organisation !! The only way she should keep her job is if she goes to North Korea and gives Kim Jong-Un the same treatment ?!! ( tell her she won't need a return ticket ? )
