In response to Laura Perrins: The Manchester bombing and the unseemly appropriation of others’ grief, Reborn wrote:
Just heard BBC World at One re this Islamist atrocity. No mention of the murderers or their motives. Then, towards the end, without any reference to the killers or their identity, the supreme BBC insult to the victims: ‘Since the attack there has been a report of a 300 (or whatever) per cent increase in Islamophobic incidents.’
Utterly contemptible.
Even by the BBC’s anti-Western standards.
