The BBC have been accused of Conservative bias, after editing a clip to remove footage of Prime Minister Boris Johnson accidentally laying a wreath upside down.

Many viewers pointed out that, at a Remembrance Sunday ceremony at the Cenotaph, Johnson placed the wreath down the wrong way round.

The BBC did not show air this footage, and instead played a clip which showed the Prime Minister performing a perfect backflip before dunking the wreath like a basketball and having it bounce to the top of the cenotaph.

The clip then ended with him performing a Dragon punch, a move from the popular video game Street Fighter, on Jeremy Corbyn.

The BBC have said that a ‘production error’ led to BBC Breakfast showing images purporting to be the prime minister attending a Remembrance Day service on Sunday, when in fact the clip was from 2016.

The BBC have not explained why this clip appears to have also been edited through the use of stunt performers, slow motion, and the AC/DC song ‘Back in Black’, in an attempt to disguise the Prime Minister’s gaffe and make him appear incredibly cool and charismatic.

Former BBC presenter Shelagh Fogarty said there was nothing sinister about the mistake, and suggested it can happen in the cut and thrust of a busy news programme.

An insider however, has noted that the clip is part of a preventive measure in the case of any gaffes by Boris Johnson. The clip, and others, are found in an emergency computer folder allegedly titled ‘Fuck up replacements’.

The folder has become a mainstay over the past 2 months.
