A vindicated Gary Lineker has reiterated his support for refugees after winning his brutal impartiality battle with the BBC.
The BBC confirmed Lineker has been reinstated as Match of the Day's host - three days after forcing the popular presenter to "step back" for criticising the new Illegal Migration Bill. Lineker also questioned the government's use of language towards refugees.
Lineker's temporary axe led to a boycott by his colleagues, which caused chaos with the BBC's schedule. The BBC's director general Tim Davie has apologised for the saga and plans to complete a "review led by an independent expert" into their impartiality rules.
