If you’re listening to the PM on Brexit and thinking there must be a better way than this - Read Nicola Sturgeon speech this morning on the alternative way forward #Brexit
I believe passionately in free speech but as First Minister I have to make balanced judgments - and I will not be part of any process that risks legitimising or normalising far right, racist views. I regret that the BBC has put me and others in this position.
The email the BBC sent to my office justifying Bannon’s inclusion described him as a ‘powerful and influential figure...promoting an anti-elite movement.’ This kind of language to describe views that many would describe as fascist does seem to me to run the risk of normalisation.
