We want the BBC back to being unbiased. Get rid of the tory element that front major programs. Its important for our main broadcaster to be unbiased, truthful and accurate. It was once the envy of the world before being buggered by the likes of Harding -get him sacked!!! |

The BBC News has been handed over to George Osbourne's best friend and a one time editor for Rupert Murdoch. This should have disqualified him from the post and his bias is clear. He has imposed hisa bias on all his reporters and neutrality has become a thing of the past. The BBC has become a North Kore type of channel, pushing only the Tory agenda, not reporting anything that criticises the government, and blantently making, like this woman did, attacks on anyone who disagrees with the Tories. |

Since Corbyn was elected leader, there is a noticeable emphasis on discrediting and ridiculing him at every opportunity. Kuenssberg herself seems to exude total glee when able to have a pop at Corbyn and her Twitter feed (constant Corbyn Tweets and nothing about the Tories/Cameron) shows that she has some sort of vendetta against him. |

As a public service broadcaster funded by a license fee rather than by subscriptions, the BBC has a duty to project a fair and unbiased viewpoint with respect to current affairs and political matters. Both in her on screen appearances and in her online presence Laura Kuenssberg falls woefully short of this and should thus be removed. |

Laura is not a political commentator. But she can be a very good gossip columnist in the Nick Robinson mould, evidenced by her dodgy 'one senior Labour source told me' lines.

This continued bias is a disgrace to the BBC Charter and demands attention.

I have never seen a BBC correspondent with less regard for impartiality. She is obsessed with putting an anti-Labour anti-Corbyn spin on any event.

The BBC is taking an unashamedly & obviously biased approach to its reporting, using every opportunity to spin negative about the Labour Party and to spin positive about the Tories (not to mention spouting pro-EU propaganda and the "Fear Factor" pressure around the referendum.

I used to be a strong supporter of the BBC, valuing its impartiality. This evening's Radio 4 News was laughable. The lead discussion was about how Labour had 'just about scraped in' and had a 'disaster' in Scotland. The fact that they had the biggest share of the vote, won the by-elections, only lost control of one council (as did the Conservatives) and were about to depose the Tories as London mayor was relegated to no more than a quiet footnote. I am appalled. Think I'll watch channel 4 . |

It isn't just Laura Kuessberg that's guilty of this, the BBC don't seem to like Jeremy Corbyn or the Labour Party at all, it's not disguised very well IMO. They all need to rein themselves back in a bit and remember their impartiality directive! |

Sadly Laura Kuenssberg is not the only one. There is a huge disparity between the treatment of Jeremy Corbyn and Tory members of Paliament. The BBC is clearly ignoring the misdemeanours of certain members of the establishment and actively ignoring stories of huge national interest to avoid embarrassing the government. |

Laura Kuenssberg was totally biased on tonights BBC News at 10. We have been paying our licence fee to keep the BBC independent but the coverage of political affairs means we should not have to pay anymore as this is becoming a sick joke with its anti- Corbyn/Labour views.

Am fed up with the constant bias shown across the BBC regarding their reporting of politics in general. Today the reporting of the elections just tried to turn elections into a hate Corbyn campaign. Midlands today reported the labour retaining the council of Walsall as labour keeping a 'stranglehold' on the council as if it were a blight . As for Kuenssberg's obsession and the BBC's general hatred of Corbyn, I have to watch my new on Channel 4 . |

At one point she began announcing with great glee a leaked document from the Labour Party giving the contents of his approach to the election - when he had just stated exactly what it said with her sitting almost next to him - and it was a totally uncontroversial position.

The BBC coverage, LK's in particular, of yesterday's election results was designed from the start to report on Labour, and thus Corbyn's, predicted failure.

The woman clearly has something against Jeremy Corbyn. She will have a pop at him at every opportunity. BBC are not bias, I had to watch the by election results on this channel as it was the only 1 showing it. I was a bag of nerves with them keep banging on about how bad Corbyn was going to do. Well in your face BBC, not only did we do better than expected Sadiq Khan became the Lord Mayor of London. Another Labour victory. |

As a journalist I try to see the whole picture and give colleagues the benefit of the doubt, but it's pretty clear Laura Kuenssberg has a bee in her bonnet about Corbyn. OK, fair enough, but the way the BBC present expert opinion as fact means she has an insane amount of power. |

I am not sure why Laura, was so against one party, I don't care to know, the point is - it should not have been so obvious, she is entitled to her personal views but should remain impartial and unbiased in her broadcasts, this was clearly not the case.

Ms Kuenssberg is, of course entitled to her opinion, but she fails to make a clear distinction between her opinion and the facts, seeming to be rather keener on being the wielder of a hatchet than on being a purveyor of objective truth, and making that distinction clear as any good journalist should. |

It is not just Kuenssberg violating impartiality in my opinion. The media has a blanket approach to bringing down Corbyn and his attempts to 'change things' for the benefit of 'ordinary' people.. However, it has been a sickening realisation that the BBC establishment is part of this agenda.

The BBC is supposed to be impartial.

I'm actually not comfortable about asking for a journalist to be sacked. In any case, the BBC (rightly) won't do it on the basis of a petition. But the Corporation needs to become aware that it's getting the balance of political reporting very wrong, and the rapid increase in the number of signatories will help to achieve this. The BBC may be trying to placate/woo Tories during the Charter Review process, but this bias won't help it as it will never satisfy people like Whittingdale. |

Kuenssberg's approach to Jeremy Corbyn & Labour is clearly biased. Whenever she presents an item, it is filled with sneers, derogatory remarks, and condescension. The BBC needs to remember one VERY important thing: A democracy without sufficient reliable information on which to base your vote IS NO DEMOCRACY AT ALL. Does the BBC really want to see Britain descend into being a one-party state, with no credible opposition at all? THAT is the situation which it is helping the Tories to create. |

Kuenssberg has been flagrantly violating the BBC Charter during the whole of her tenure as political editor.

You spend the time wondering whether she's aware that she's supposed to be unbiased, whether she is able to read anything apart from the right wing media; but she keeps on doing it, and you have to conclude it's intentional. When she's not mentioning Corbyn, I'm always forced to the mental comparison, what would she be saying about this politician if this had happened to Corbyn, and I know she would be taking an entirely different approach, and not to Corbyn's benefit. |

Wouldn't it be nice to have a BBC Political Editor who is impartial. Laura Kuenssberg clearly isn't. According to the terms of her job description (available online) she should have already been shown the door. |

Has Kuenssberg infiltrated the BBC from Conservative Party HQ? That is how it seems as she mounts her tireless tirades against Jeremy Corbyn, even during the local election campaign when impartiality rules are even more important. She may be bringing the BBC into disrepute but that doesn't seem to bother them. |

The bias is in content, emphasis and omission. Coverage of the May council/London mayor elections quickly became unwatchable, particularly when LK was fronting. It is not the BBC's role/job to constantly denigrate the leader of the opposition in its News coverage. This isn't journalism, it is propaganda |

When Nick Robinson, former political editor for the BBC and Conservative supporter, acknowledges the anti-corbyn bias on the BBC, you know something is wrong. The 2016 election coverage by the BBC, in particular Laura's coverage and opinion pieces are something to behold, as is her twitter feed. The Conservatives have actually lost more councils & cllrs than Labour, but you wouldnt think that. Plus their coverage of election fraud is abysmal |

Although the BBC is well accustomed to accusations of bias from both ends of the political spectrum (which they have traditionally held up as evidence of their impartiality), something seems to have gone seriously wrong with BBC News' impartiality in recent years. Nick Robinson's Tory background was evident enough in his reporting, but this pales into insignificance compared to the outright bias displayed by Laura Kuenssberg. |

The BBC is blatantly biased against Jeremy Corbyn, especially Ms Kuenssberg, who is bent on discrediting and ridiculing him at every possible opportunity. She surpassed herself on Election Night. She appears to work in cahoots with the small number of Tory lite Labour MPs, whose sole aim is to try and hound him out of Office. In comparison, Ms Kuenssberg is gushingly friendly with those Tory lites, as she is with any of the Conservative ranks. Nauseating. |

Less than 12 hours after the results were announced, Kuensburg was demonstrating her (and the BBC) bias, in pouring scorn and negative comments on Labour in general and the leadership in particular. Clearly disappointed that the Labour party had not lost the predicted 200 odd seats, Kuensburg spent the entire time allocated in her "report" for Labour, criticising the results and repeating how it should have been infinitely better. Odious woman.Sack Kuenssberg ! |

It's not just Corbyn - some of us remember her bile during the Referendum and she constantly allows her political leanings to influence her biased shite. She's good - as an opinioned commentator - but she's no journalist and deserves no place in the BBC |

I don't think for a second that this petition will get her sacked - or even disciplined. In fact, she'll probably get a pay rise. But if this petition draws attention to her shameless hustling for the Tories, it's worth signing. |

All government-owned broadcasters are expected to carry some minor level of bias, but the BBC is DIRECTLY funded by The People, and as such should be beyond reproach with it's impartiality. Leave the bias to the Murdoch-machine. The BBC should have higher and less self-serving standards. |

Sun 08 May 11:07:34 |
Although I have serious reservations about petitions calling for people to be sacked, Kuenssberg's vendetta against Corbyn, and her parotting of Downing Street press releases, is wholly unacceptable: not just for the BBC, but as a journalist more generally. Nick Robinson wasn't exactly s beacon of impartiality, but Kuenssberg's performances on-air are simply extraordinary (and not in a good way). |

As if the live resignation wasn't bad enough, we now hear that Laura Kuenssberg waited until AFTER the local elections to report on the Tory Electoral Fraud scandal. Regular viewers are quite simply unable to get all the facts before making a balanced and informed decision abotu who to vote for. A biased BBC is threatening our democracy and it needs to be restored to the unbiased principles upon which it was founded. |

The BBC news is now a political tool, that pushes propaganda and not the news. They do not cover stories that would upset the establishment or educate the people as to what is really going on in our world. They were handed documents on the Finchley Road Scandals and have not reported the biggest theft of wealth from the citizens of the U.K. In addition, the are poiticiized when using terms such as "so-called Ilamic state" and "so called EDL" they are a disgrace and the BBC should be closed down. |

No personal fan of Corbyn but the rank hypocrisy of Kuenssberg and the BBC regarding its political coverage of late is a national disgrace..Why no mention of the multiple ongoing Police investigations into possible Tory election fraud on the news..??They are fawning over the Tories and trying to smear and damage Labour and, specifically, Corbyn at every opportunity whilst paying lip service to their own impartiality rules... |

BBC News no longer reports facts. Now every question asked, every report produced, every article written is infused with biased speculation about Jeremy Corbyn's failures. Even election results showing a clear Labour win are somehow spun into a failure of the leadership. The BBC should not engage in a personal vendetta, nor in pure propaganda. Unfortunately, it does. The news editors have to go - not just Laura Kuenssberg, but probably all of them. |

She is so biased. The 3000 child refugee motion was started by Angus Robertson [SNP] but all Ms Kuensberg's plaudits, on its reversal, went to the Labour, Lib-Dem faction. Rather like her report on the saving of the steel works in Scotland, if you looked awful hard you might see Nicola Sturgeon in the far corner. Her favourite Party Politticos are beaming into the camera. What a disgrace to impartiality. |

I signed this because Laura Kuenssberg has consistently proved herself to be totally biased against anyone who is not a Tory.

I was utterly appalled at the way JC was treated during the leadership contest and in the weeks following his appointment. Now to see that the BBC, a beloved institution where events, both domestic and international, would be reported without bias has been found to be the exact opposite, is just horrifying. This woman has been biased from start to finish where JC's leadership has been concerned and should not be allowed to remain working in such a trusted institution. Ditto Andrew Neil. |

The BBC used to be open, honest and unbiased. But not anymore. With their license fee frozen and it no longer being illegal to watch TV without one, combined with the increased responsibilities pushed onto it (like S4C), it's killing our much-loved broadcaster. It's pushed the BBC into desperately pandering to the Conservative's every will in the hopes they'll get some more funding from it. However - impartiality is a requirement of the broadcaster and should be followed in all that they do. |

The BBC and Kuenssburg have been taking every opportunity to discredit Corbyn with oft repeated half truths, lies and spin.

Since the BBC's failure to address Nick Robinson's disgraceful coverage of the Scottish referendum, and his subsequent transfer to the Today programme, I haven't been able to listen to it when he's on, because I can't trust him not to lie.

If she were an ex-, you'd have taken out a restraining order - her Twitter feed reads like a stalker obsessed with Corbyn. From 'revenge reshuffle' (Corbyn) to 'unity reshuffle' (Cameron), Labour won in England, Wales, Bristol and London - yet Laura (and the BBC) focused on Scotland (which doesn't exist in the news for most of the year). |

This woman does seem to have some kind of personal thing against Corbyn. The BBCs reporting (or ignoring ) of anything he has to say has become more marked over the past couple of months.

BBC's coverage of the recent elections seems to have had a script written by a Tory spin doctor some time before the results came in.

You cannot but notice the drift away from balanced reporting on the BBC.

I am constantly appalled by Laura Keunssberg anti-cornyn and anti-Labour comments on the BBC. She misrepresents the facts and always finds a way to attack labour and Jeremy Corbyn. David Cameron and the Tories get a free ride in comparison. Surely this violates the BBC Charter. |

It's such biased reporting from Laura Kuenssberg...I find her quite aggressive in her reporting as well. Can I be clear that this has nothing to do with gender, but everything to do with misrepresentation of events. |

We expect our print media to be totally biased. The BBC however remains the primary source of news for most of the population.There is no place for the personal vendetta against any political party of the kind carried out by Kuenssberg. |

Anybody making offensive sexist remarks about Laura is clearly an unpleasant idiot but I really do believe Laura Kuenssberg's narrative of the local election results was deeply bias against Corbyn and Labour leadership and confirms a persistent bias by herself (and indeed other journalists). I am fed up with the consistent anti-Labour/Corbyn narrative. Start reporting in a balanced manner BBC, that's what i pay my liscence for!!! |

Because of her, and the BBC's biased attitudes towards Jeremy Corbyn. "Blairites" are wheeled in to add emphasis to the BBC's approach and anti-Corbyn attitudes.During election night, Laura did not bring herself to say anything positive about Labours successes on the night. It was a totally one sided and biased commentary. |

Her bias is offensively blatant, she is from an extraordinarily privileged background and uses our public services to promote the interest of the extraordinarily privileged and mocks those looking out for our interests (us being the vast majority that pay her wages) |

Laura Kuenssberg's obvious biased attitude towards Labour and Jeremy Corbyn is in danger of discrediting the BBC's impartiality. Many of us now have no faith in BBC's political reporting because of the way it's political editor is deliberately misrepresenting the facts to suit her own agenda. |

I came to look at this petition because the Guardian reported that it was sexist. It isn't. I've been disgusted by Kuensberg's behaviour about Corbyn for some time. She needs to sort her act out and behave with respect for everyone's reasonable political views or go and get a job in the sort of place where bias and disrespectful behaviour is welcomed - not at the BBC where she is abusing my licence fee money. |

The BBC (especially its "news" output) is nothing other than Government propaganda channel design to keep the ruling elite in this country free of criticism and in power. Kuenssberg is a paid for Government puppet and mouthpiece. |

This campaign supports what I already felt, that Laura has a biased agenda against Corbyn, her reporting has been consistently negative. I don't want her to neccesarily lose her job, but to uphold BBC impartiality. If she cannot see this in herself she needs retraining |

I am puzzled by this presenter's (and the BBC's at large) agenda against Jeremy Corbyn. It has clearly been orchestrated but it would be great to know what and who is behind the campaign and what the reason is. We should certainly expect much more impartiality from the BBC. |
