Lost all respect for them now.

Never felt any need to go to the protests but I might go the next one now in light of this.

I'm surprised the reporter even thought that because the guy was approaching police, it was a good reason for them to drag him out of the wheelchair. Not that, maybe he was looking for help.

I like how he was interrupted when he started talking about the BBC's reporting on Palestinians.

Go complain (props to those who already have, fuck the rest of you cabbage minded BBC subscribers that lacked that scrap of intuition)

"LOL" that people even pay for TV licence. Use this as a pivotal oppurtunity to give up the dirty habit

lol @ the people who don't like it when a reporter asks a disabled person some hard questions because it makes them feel uncomfortable to see them treated as equals.

Completely disagree with the BBC interviewer. That guy is appalling. I was wincing throughout most of the interview.

However, there seems to be a slight case of double standards.
