Emily Thornberry: In a world of disinformation, the BBC remains a ‘source of truth and reliability’

In a wide-ranging interview with Gavin Lee, British MP and Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Emily Thornberry offers a candid and reflective discussion that spans the complexities of global diplomacy, foreign policy, and the stark challenges of real governance. We explore raging conflicts in Gaza, Ukraine, and Sudan, alongside political turbulence at home within the frat boy culture of British politics. The conversation includes in-depth analysis of the BBC as a century-old institution: its crucial role in the digital age of disinformation, the integrity of its journalism, and the political pressures it faces, both at home and abroad, as a publicly funded broadcaster striving to maintain trust in a deeply divided media and political landscape, amid a fractured world. We are reminded that If you tread the middle path well, “both sides are likely attack you,” explains Ms. Thornberry. “This is life.” The British MP is heartened by a new noticeable trend "whereby people want to have explainers, they want to understand’: the full story with historical context to better understand our world.
