LONDON: BBC television’s flagship football programme was in meltdown on Saturday after pundits and commentators refused to work in a show of support for presenter Gary Lineker, who was forced to “step back” after accusing the government of using Nazi-era rhetoric.
Match of the Day presenter Lineker, England’s fourth most prolific goal scorer, sparked an impartiality row by criticising the British government’s new policy on tackling illegal immigration.
