CULTURE Secretary Michelle Donelan has defended BBC board member Robbie Gibb for telling journalists not to cast Brexit in a “negative light”.
Gibb, who previously served as director of communications for Theresa May, was said to be “frustrated” by the manner of reporting on Brexit, according to The New Statesman.
The magazine reported that Gibb did not want Brexit portrayed in a "negative light" and that he had concerns people would believe the BBC "had an agenda".
