Current court cases linked to the referendum, Brexit and its protagonists.
Stories that show potential wrongdoing by those involved with the Pro Brexit campaign.
Stories that show the referendum was created as an advisory referendum.
Information that may show pro Brexit side promises may have been lies.
Corrections to Anti-EU lies propagated by either pro Brexit campaign.
Failure to report on investigations into wrongdoing by those on the Pro Brexit side.
Failure to report on failures of the UK government or politicians before, during or since the referendum.

Why is this important?
BBC treatment, allowing of derogation of those supporting the remain campaign. Repression of Pro remain stories, political marches and events. Censoring, cutting and refusal to report on remain activities and protests since the referendum. "Othering", making derogatory comments, bullying and ridiculing those with a political view different to that of the BBC or the government which are commonplace in the news, reviews and "Chat" shows of the BBC. Attacks on any minority group, culture, race or political persuasion.
- Are not in keeping with BBC rules, Broadcasting rules and in some cases the law.
The BBC is paid for by public licence and has a duty to be non bias and non-partisan. Its is failing in its duty to report news that more than 50% of the voting public showed an interest, in the 2016 referendum.
16,141,241 voters plus many who were not allowed to vote are being intentionally marginalised by current BBC practices
Highest ever number of people voted to stay EU than had ever voted for a single option before that date. Yet their voices go unheard on mainstream BBC programming.
Air time for both sides of the argument should be equal. This has quite clearly been ignored given the high number of appearances by Pro Leave celebrities while vs the number of appearances of Pro Remain people on mainstream (BBC1, 2) Tv and Radio (1+2). UKIP vs Green party representations are wholly disproportionate with a bias towards Current and Ex UKIP members. Number of appearances for Pro Leave vs Pro remain personalities on BBCQT shows bias towards Pro Brexit personalities.
It is of vital importance that the people of the United Kingdom are offered a fair, unbias and politically uncensored reporting and public education of events in the UK for it to be democratically balanced. Failure to do so promotes and encourages a bias in those that receive bias information. It is not in the interests of the BBC licence payer or the public to be misinformed or underinformed about events that effect and will affect the lives of British citizens home both home and abroad and those living in the UK
