Indeed. The disaster that is Richard Burgon seems to have made clear that the plan for dealing with the press is copying the Trump model. I find it no more acceptable whatever place in the political spectrum the people doing it occupy. It's one thing to evade answering questions, another to show utter disdain for those asking the questions.

Yup. Politicians and their supporters don't want to be scrutinised and so turn it onto the media. Any negative stories about them are part of a conspiracy against them, any reporting that deviates from their narrative are lies.
At best they want there to be no actual concept of something being true and instead everything being a point of view, a best they want to be the only source of what is true.
