    The Orgreave editing was so blatant that the BBC ought to have been disbanded, or least threatened with it. So a little bit of editing of laughter out is nothing in comparison.

    It is time for some of us to withhold payment of TVL on that basis. If they cannot report things factually then those of us who watch this TV station ought to seek redress.

    It's worse than that. Part of his answer is cut out. While he says the same words it's not from the same moment. Notice he's stood in a different place in relation to the cross behind him when he finally speaks

    He obviously said the same words at some other point in the programme and they've used that. They've stitched the answer to an entirely different question to that question. That's a much, much more serious matter
