I had a reply from the BBC to my complaint about giving so much more airtime to Reform UK than to the Greens.
They responded to say "Farage is an absolute hero" (OK, I'm paraphrasing, but only a bit), and pointed to a whole 3 occasions when they featured the Greens in their coverage.
They said "We don’t agree that the Green Party has received unfair representation during our election coverage", but they give zero data to back that up.
I've escalated to the next level
