Another pompous out of touch numpty on the BBC. In this case though Oliver Letwin has a long history of saying stuff that only the likes of the Beeb let him get away with. They take no responsibility and rarely say sorry because their arrogance is immeasurable.
This of course is a classic now in its time:

However, like most Tory MP’s they are appealing to the lowest common denominator and they surpass themselves time and time again.
This is ignorance of the highest order and should not be accepted by anyone with an ounce of empathy and understanding:
So the unremarkable Oliver Letwin writes a novel that is technologically illiterate, panned by critics and stigmatises people with autism as a threat to society … and @BBCr4today gives him a giant plug. What news stories are they not covering to make space for this tripe?
