This is a Premier League footballer, an immensely wealthy young professional, the crime he’s (presumably) charged with is assaulting a police officer and then trying to bribe that same officer once the seriousness of the offence dawns on him. But if you read the BBC’s reporting of the event you could be forgiven for thinking he was being charged with jaywalking, FFS!
Do both the rags and the dippers have some kind of hold over the BBC or what?
Slabhead is in a great deal of trouble over this incident, and it could have serious repercussions on his career. But we’re being led to believe it was just a bit of a ‘lark with the boys‘ after a night out.
This isn’t just a case of typical double standards from the BBC, this is wanton propaganda.
