I’m not involved in any of these cases. The current government may have answers to many of these concerns.

But there is on any view serious cause for concern about the untransparent spending of huge sums of public money on entities with links to ministers and advisers. The BBC should be reporting this: and I simply don’t understand why it isn’t. @bbclaurak @bbcnickrobinson.

At the very least, one of the BBC’s excellent legal correspondents could be allowed to report near the top of a flagship BBC programme on the current legal actions, explaining what they are about and where they have got to (permission having been granted in at least one case).

Covering politics in an impartial way at the moment is hard, and the leap is too often made from disagreement with its judgments to accusations of bias or bad faith. But on this occasion I simply cannot see on what basis this story is not being picked up, given its importance.
