It is remarkable what sort of news the BBC do not wish to cover. I don’t watch their television so must take that on trust, but looking at the BBC news site, this is not even touched upon. Hunger strikes in NI, and more recent ones, yes, but this no. I do wonder who the corporation represents - it certainly is not most of the UK.
The result of a search for hunger strike on the BBC news site - not a word of this
The report linked - a picture of the BBC HQ - the title suggest a protest, there is one person there, text reads
BBC slammed for not covering Palestine prisoners' hunger strike
