It does seem like another example of cancel culture which I'm generally against but I just wonder if when you're at a certain level of fame and a key figure of a publicly funded organisation you shouldn't be sharing your political views on a public forum? I'm surprised it's not in his contract...
I'm very much on the fence on this. Part of me thinks it's another example of over sensitivity but he must appreciate he's one of the most well know public figures employed at the bbc. He should probably realise different rules apply to him with regards to voicing an opinion
