You've got this wrong, Andrew. You might not like politicians having their own programme sloe (including David Lammy on LBC), but you're finding it difficult to place a valid wrongdoing here.

Undemocratic is several things. A functioning democracy needs an independent media, not one populated by MPs of the ruling party who can be tempted to bury issues where their party is under-performing, not hold Ministers to account and give a fangirl interview to a disgraced former Prime Minister.

Saying different things to different people is not the definition of a conflict of interest.
