Gary Lineker has been on social media of breaking BBC rule, and, as ever, he was getting attacked by Tory MPs and he batted them off…as ever.
Breaking BBC rules
First of Tory Jonathan Gullis accused Lineker of breaking BBC impartiality rules, writing: “Yet another breach of the BBC’s impartiality rules by Gary Lineker. But, sadly, spineless Tim Davie will do nothing about it, having surrendered to Lineker previously.”
Lineker hit back by writing: “Jonathan hasn’t read the new guidelines….or, should I say, had someone read them to him?”
On Good Morning Britain Gary also got criticised.
“A former BBC executive has said the broadcaster needs to separate from Gary Lineker.”
This was also reported in The Telegraph.

Then Lee Anderson, for it is he, wrote on Twitter/X: “For once in his life, Gary’s absolutely right – we do need a system that reflects the will of the British people.
“What the people want is to stop the boats and to tell overpaid crisp salesmen to put a sock in it.
“Alongside cracking down on illegal migration, we need another robust system which keeps Lineker as far away from the public as possible, to give us all a rest from his left-wing, out-of-touch nonsense.”
And finally…
Then Grant Shapps criticised the football pundit.
Gary wrote: “A tad rich coming from someone who can’t even stick to one name. 4 chaps Shapps.”
