The BBC has been lambasted over a supposed “failure” to cover the Uxbridge triple stabbing attack and has been accused of fearing the “demonisation” of an Afghan migrant.
Speaking to GB News, broadcaster Carole Malone accused them of an “astonishing” lack of coverage of the murder and claimed she “couldn’t see a report” from the broadcaster on it.
Wayne Broadhurst, 49, was tragically killed in a “shocking and senseless act of violence” on Monday in Midhurst Gardens, Uxbridge by 22-year-old Afghan migrant Safi Dawood.
Dawood appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court this morning, charged with one count of murder and two counts of attempted murder, alongside a charge for the possession of an offensive weapon.

Discussing the murder, Ms Malone told GB News: “It’s another day, another murder by a migrant of an innocent Brit. We had the terrible case of Wayne Broadhurst, who’d been walking his dog, not knowing it was going to be his last walk ever.
“And some crazed migrant who had already tried to kill another guy and his son down the road with a knife, stabbed him repeatedly to death for nothing. I mean, this is just for nothing.”
Having seen footage on social media of the attack, she added that she “cannot unsee” the horror she had witnessed in the video.
She said: “I inadvertently watched that film on social media, and I wished I hadn’t, because I can’t unsee it. I can’t unsee what this man did. It was completely barbaric.”

She accused the BBC of not covering the incident until later on in the evening, saying: “Do you know what I thought was really astonishing? The day that it was broadcast that Wayne Broadhurst was murdered in broad daylight, I switched on BBC News to watch it.
“They didn’t have it on the agenda originally, a white man killed by Afghan migrant, they didn’t. Why? Because they didn’t want to demonise the Afghan migrant. And they only put it on the news list much later in the day at the bottom of the news agenda.”
She told GB News: “What is that about? Look at the media outlets who try to hide these crimes.
“I was looking for a report on the Wayne Broadhurst stabbing, and I couldn’t get it on the BBC, that’s for sure.”

Host Andrew Pierce responded to Ms Malone, jibing: “Perhaps they’ve decided it’s become so commonplace, it’s not news.”
Noting the recent case of migrant Hadush Kebatu, who was paid upon deportation to Ethiopia after being mistakenly released from prison, Ms Malone argued that you “do not give money” to those who “sexually assault people”.
She said: “To top all this off, we have the guy who who was mistakenly released from prison, the sex offender who was put on a plane and he had five security guards with him and he wouldn’t settle down.
“He was given £500 to shut up and behave himself until they flew him back home. Now, if you have somebody like him, you don’t give him money to go away for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old schoolgirl. You actually put him in a straitjacket and chain him to the chair. You do not give him £500 in cash.”
