As Immigration Minister in Dec 2020 I tried to deport this dangerous criminal. But Labour MPs and various celebrities (including Naomi Campbell, Thandiwe Newton, Naomie Harris and David Olusoga) opposed the flight and most criminals were taken off

If their political views are likely to colour what they are saying about their work (eg left wing activists criticising Govt running of public services) then you should draw attention to it. Otherwise viewers have the wrong impression they are hearing impartial professional views

Let’s be clear. If we are interviewing people about politics their political views are relevant and we say so. If they are talking about a clinical matter like a global pandemic they are irrelevant. I don’t care how my doctor or nurse votes.

Sir Keir is complicit in this - sitting silently in Corbyn’s Shadow Cabinet, actively campaigning twice (2017, 2019) to make Corby PM and saying literally nothing at the time about the rife anti-semitism in Labour, later found by the Equalities and HR Commission to be unlawful
