'Very sensible' | BBC shakes up social media rules for top presenters after Gary Lineker row

The BBC has announced changes to its social media policies for its most prominent presenters, following the recent controversy involving Gary Lineker.

The national broadcaster says its top stars such as Gary Lineker could opine on political issues on social media but must stop short of campaigning, in new guidelines prompted by a row over the sports presenter's comments about immigration policy earlier this year.
