.. and then plead for him not to penalise TV licence payers

- KATIE HARRIS Senior Political Correspondent

THE BBC should "grovel" to Donald Trump over the Panorama scandal, Tories said yesterday.

The US President has threatened a billion-dollar legal action over the furore, which has sparked the resignation of two senior bosses.

They quit over concerns the broadcaster had edited a speech to make it appear that Mr Trump encouraged the US Capitol riots in 2021.

Shadow Culture Secretary Nigel Huddleston said: "If you look at the complaint he's got - the Panorama programme - he probably has legitimate claims to say, 'look, this was wrong and definitely requires and demands an apology'.

"So I would advise the BBC to grovel here. They need to make sure that they communicate very clearly that they got this wrong and that they apologise.
