I pretty much agree with all of this. For me Baroness Warsi was the surprise. She was articulate, logical and incisive. She managed in her few sentences to put down both Straw and Griffin. I found her delightful.
Dimbleby should be ashamed of himself. Allowing the mob to run riot has almost certainly gained Griffin some sympathy in certain circles. I feel he and the BBC managed to shoot themselves in the foot.
