Introduction
See Section 10: Politics & Public Policy of the Editorial Guidelines.
The principles relating to our political impartiality are set out in the BBC's Charter and Agreement and are central to our coverage of politics. Over time we must aim to give due prominence to all the main strands of argument and to all the main parties. Although the government of the day will often be the primary source of news, the voices and opinions of opposition parties must also be routinely aired and challenged.
