Here is my BAFTA speech in full, with the important bit that hasn't been shown.
Also, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported us, and to our colleagues who rallied around us. And thank you to @BAFTA and the judges for a great evening and a great honour.
Failure to suspend Israel from Eurovision, as it continues to commit genocide in Gaza, unlawful occupation and apartheid against Palestinians, is an act of cowardice and double standards. #HumanityMustWin

The documentary @BBCNews dropped, Gaza: Doctors Under Attack, won a BAFTA award.
Ramita Navai: “the BBC paid for and refused to show, but we refused to be silenced and censored.”
Silence and censorship is not journalism, the BBC is engaging in genocide denial.

Make this stingy entitled racist famous.

For 16 years until 2014 Julie Hesmondhalgh played a trans woman called Hayley Cropper on Coronation Street. Nobody screamed. Nobody rioted. There was no national meltdown. People just watched the show and got on with their lives.
During those same years Helen Joyce worked at The Economist and Maya Forstater was a tax advisor and JK Rowling just wrote books.
Oh and Nadia won Big Brother!
So what changed.
Not trans people.

[The question asked was: 'When you and Toto come back from a race, lets say Abu Dhabi 2021 or a situation, something extreme pressure...' to which Susie first responded with 'Let's not talk about Abu Dhabi 2021. I try not to go back there.' The follow up question then: 'But is that not just because of what happened on track, but is that because of off track? Because that must have been super hard, dealing with that, the aftermath, right? The emotions....']
