Yesterday this blog proved that the BBC is disingenuous regarding one of their six core values - We respect each other and celebrate our diversity so that everyone can give their best. I quoted part of an email from the BBC Trust in which it is clear that the BBC not only wish to be excused from a duty to promote equality, but they also want exemption from anti-discrimination legislation.

Newsround today included an item about elections to the European Parliament. During his report on the 5.05pm programme Adam said the following:

For the first time ever a group called the British National Party has won places in the European Parliament, and that's caused a huge fuss. They say they don't want any more people from abroad moving to Britain. They've been accused of being racist, but they say they're standing up for white British people.
