I AM disgusted at the BBC’s decision not to show the DEC charity appeal for Gaza.

There can be no justification for this deeply concerning position and we urge the BBC to reconsider.

Whatever our positions or views on the Gaza crisis the innocent victims in Gaza need our help and support and the BBC has a public duty to broadcast this appeal.

We welcome Channel 4, ITV and Channel 5’s decision to broadcast and would urge Sky to also reconsider.

Showing this appeal does not show bias or favour to Israel or the Palestinian cause in Gaza.
