Interesting that the BBC will call National Rally "Far Right" (in an article about Bardella meeting Farage) - when they would never use that term for Reform. Their policies are very similar. If anything Reform's are more authoritarian.

Thought this was the new @warringtonruncorn.com EP.

Paging Robbie Gibb and Michael Prescott: if you’re pulling together another of those little dossiers on political bias at the BBC, I’ve got a submission for you.
