Andrew Neil has been tweeting about demagogues. A short thread on how he & the @spectator - of which he is chair - has supported a foundation which supports a demagogue, right here in Europe. And how - or why - the BBC is able to square this with its editorial guidelines
Here's @sunny_hundal pointing out Neil's involvement with an event the held at Hungarian embassy earlier this year
.@sunny_hundal points out that the foundation "produces far-right studies for the Orban government". That's the same Viktor Orban who has overseen the destruction of all independent media in Hungary. And here it is featured in the Andrew Neil's Spectator 
The foundation is directly implicating in the discrediting of journalists critical to Orban's regime, according to Index on Censorship.
And here's the foundation being accused of being a money-laundering machine for Orban.
I will defend to my last breath Andrew Neil's right to express his profoundly right-wing, pro-Brexit views on BBC. But, he should do so transparently & overtly. His social media & behaviour does not square in any way with BBC's editorial code. Who is protecting him? And why?
