'It would be lovely to think Lineker’s tweet might provoke serious debate. Instead, a former England star finds himself battling a prime minister again' ✒️ ianbirrell for ipaperviews
Match Of The Day host Gary Lineker will “step back” from presenting Match of the Day until there is “an agreed and clear position on his use of social media” , reporting on a nation fighting for its future while watching an explosive debate at home sparked by a former footballer’s tweet. Truly, these are weird times.
Now Lineker’s entanglement with another Conservative leader is proving far more serious for both the Government and his main employer, disrupting BBC programming and dominating the news agenda.: there is no huge influx – although even without Ukrainians the number of asylum applicants rose last year to its highest level for two decades – while Britain is in the lower half of Europe’s league table in terms of applications per capita.
