BBC word cloud describes Rishi Sunak as a ‘liar’, ‘t**t’ and ‘c***’ live on air

The poll, which asked members of the public to describe the new prime minister in “one word” also featured terms including “boring”, “snake” and “privileged”.

After it was shared on social media, the word cloud was picked up by the BBC, but they failed to censor the more insulting words.
