    What one random punter posted about a news story on Twitter is not in and of itself, news.

    I usually stand up for the BBC but you're right. And it's not just them that do it.
    Twitter, thank god, is not a true reflection of the majority of the population. If it is we're more f****d than I thought.

    Bbc are no strangers of broadcasting fake news. A mouth piece for the government.
    And if we are to be prosecuting those who lie let's start at Westminster.

    Can I also add that I'm sick of all the Twitter comments that appear alongside PMQs on a Wednesday lunchtime. I just want the questions and the "answers" thanks very much.
