A REPUBLICAN journalist and lecturer tore into the royal family on BBC Question Time branding them a “hideous cartel”.
Ash Sarkar, senior editor at Novara Media, blasted the “grubby dealings” between the institution and the tabloid media which have been exposed in Harry’s autobiography Spare as the panel engaged in debate about who had come off worst following the revelations.
And in a rare occurrence on the BBC, Sarkar was able to let loose with her republican stance and rip into the behaviour of the royal family who other members of the panel claimed had an important “constitutional role”.
