It’s an important point.
The BBC “normalised” Farridge by platforming him on QT so often. Last night’s episode had 2xTories, plus SNP, Lab and Joe Stiglitz. No LibDem. No Green. It’s blatant. And it’s wrong

Winston McKenzie pulled a stunt in 2016 after crowdfunding his £20,000 deposit to stand as a candidate for the English Democrats. His nomination forms were not complete. No one really knows what happened to all that cash… He certainly didn’t refund the public:
