I see that Rishi Sunak has compared him being questioned about his wife's business links to Russia as being the same as Will Smith having his wife's illness made into a joke and him reacting to it.

Just because you don't like certain journalists due to their political stance doesn't mean they don't sometimes report things accurately.
