I can’t believe the director general of the BBC is still in his job after that appalling documentary on the children of Gaza. It wasn't a serious blunder or anything – only that the narrator was the son of a Hamas government official! How can any commissioning editor, or indeed anybody in BBC management, be proud of where they work anymore? The majority of people I meet who are in the BBC are pretty woke Lefties. And it seems that their coverage is going exactly that way.

       The BBC needs to be strictly impartial, not the Biased Broadcasting Corporation. First, there was this ridiculous behaviour in not calling Hamas a terrorist organisation, then we had multiple BBC staff and presenters using their social media accounts to share toxic anti-Israel content, and now this appalling documentary. Even Director General Tim Davie has admitted he “lost trust” in the hour-long documentary, In the darkness, Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone. No s*** Sherlock.

       But what about BBC News CEO Deborah Turness and other senior executives from the BBC's news and current affairs who gathered a month ago for a screening of what one described as a "landmark" piece of filmmaking. It’s since emerged that the child narrator at the heart of the film, broadcast on BBC Two, 13-year old Abdullah, was the son of a Hamas government official.

       Independent production company Hoyo Films, which made the documentary for the BBC, says it is “cooperating fully” to "help understand where mistakes have been made". Hmm, well I can tell you for starters that using the son of a senior Hamas official isn’t exactly standard operation procedure. Nor is paying them. The documentary cost a cool ￡400,000 and we will probably never know if any of that money found its way to Hamas. Hoyo insists it didn't, for the record.

       ？？The film also misinterpreted some of the translated speech from people who took part in the film – misinterpretations that were damaging and disrespectful to Jews. But in today’s Britain, Jew-bashing seems to have become okay for a large number of Lefties. It’s disgusting. No wonder many Jews are asking if Britain remains a safe space for them.

       And the BBC’s appalling documentary plays to that antisemitic audience. As for the celebs who have attacked the BBC for pulling it from iPlayer, I think it’s incumbent on them to take a long hard look in the mirror. All of which makes it difficult to understand why any of us are still being asked for money to support such an obviously dysfunctional corporation.

       Yes, we need a national news service that isn't commercial. We could probably do with an education channel, and possibly a channel that puts programmes out that nobody else would. But being made to pay every year for this awful organisation even if you don't want to watch any of their output is just wrong.

       When is somebody in authority going to have the gumption to say bye-bye BBC?
