Britain and International Security

Proceeding contribution from James Gray (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 July 2015. It occurred during Debate on Britain and International Security.

My right hon. Friend says that the BBC has been persuaded to drop the term “Islamic State”, but is he aware of reports that the BBC has in fact said that it

“must be fair with Islamic State…on the ground that its coverage of the terrorist group must be impartial”?

Does my right hon. Friend agree that the BBC need not be impartial with murderous scumbags such as ISIL and that calling them Daesh is perfectly correct?
