Contributing sentiments towards policy:
48% : A study across nine years by Cardiff University of the non-party panellists invited on Question Time found that all the people who appeared most often are on the right.47% : It praised the "political genius" of Donald Trump, suggested that Democrats are now seen as the extremists, and claimed that Trump is widely regarded as "making [America] normal again".
46% : This is part of a wider fossil-fuelled attempt to reverse environmental progress (assisted, incidentally, by the BBC's own studio, StoryWorks, which, according to reporting by DeSmog, has produced PR materials for fossil fuel companies, transport firms and other major polluters).
27% : So why shut down Davis's non-political podcast on heat pumps, but not Webb's inflammatory support for Trump?
