after Liz Truss’s team were said to be “incandescent” that her interview with Laura Kuenssberg was hijacked by Joe Lycett.was derailed by the guest panellist, who used his platform to sarcastically praise the incoming prime minister.criticism of the BBC’s impartiality“Team Truss was incandescent afterwards. She agreed to give a significant interview after blowing out Nick Robinson,” an insider said. “It confirmed all their prejudices that the BBC is left-wing and just a bit silly.
“There was lots to admire on the first show but the panel needs an urgent rethink and someone senior at the BBC should have seen Lycett’s lame hijack coming.” “What she said – in marked contrast to B Johnson – is that, for her, economic growth matters more than income distribution. It’s a clear break – and by far the most important thing she said. But did the panel discuss it? Mr Lycett certainly missed it.”
“That will have to change if the programme is going to maintain its central role or ministers just won’t go on it.” A BBC spokesperson said they did not recognise claims that there would be significant changes to the format.
