He may well along with others see the Communist party as unsavoury as I myself do as to politics.
However individual or professional views on other subjects have no bearing on that.

Plus too, the Communist party is NOT an illegal institution in the UK.

So should all experts, professionals, scientists and advisors now be asked which Party they are members of too.

No of course they shouldn't be asked that in my view..

Oh I get that definitely Ammi.
It was the right thing to do too.

However he isn't a novice presenter and interviewer.
He has years of vast experience.

For me, it more demonstrated he can't detach his personal prejudices from the professional expectation of himself which there should be.
