The BBC might not like the Labour Party (especially under Corbyn) but you can't deny it is 99% pro-left.
- vertis 4y agoI consider myself on the left and have spent a bit of time in the UK (Usually vote Labour/Green in Australia). Labour does seem fairly inept in the UK, not certain I could vote for them if given the right. Certainly Corbyn running around suggesting not arming Ukraine did nothing for my opinion on that front[0]. I agree though, that the BBC and the ABC in Australia both lean left as a rule, though still do their job of holding both to account.

BBC Employees tend to be younger than average (as there are very few over 65s at the BBC), tend to be more educated that average (most jobs will require a college level degree), tend to be more metropolitan (most staff are employed major cities) Of course there are very few tory or leave voters amongst BBC Staff, probably between 1-in-4 and 1-in-3 if they are demographically representative [1] The question is how those views come across in the reporting, and generally it seems fairly balanced to me (I usually vote Lib Dem fwiw) [1] https://lordashcroftpolls.com/2019/12/how-britain-voted-and-why-my-2019-general-election-post-vote-poll/ https://lordashcroftpolls.com/2019/12/how-britain-voted-and-...
