Andrew Tate's relationship with the BBC continues to deteriorate, as the controversial social media influencer lashed out at the broadcaster for their recent reports about the correlation between his misogynistic rhetoric and the rise in violence and crimes perpetrated against women.
Tate, who has always maintained his innocence in the face of the various allegations and legal battles he has found himself in, took to X/Twitter to aim vitriol in the BBC's direction.
"Remember when the BBC called me a human trafficker every single day for three years? They don't talk about Huw Edwards? No, they don't talk about Phillip Schofield."
While accusing the BBC of ignoring high-profile sexual misconduct cases involving other public figures, some of whom worked at the BBC, he also claimed that the migrant crisis had a direct impact on the rise in violence against women.

"If you give a sh*t about the safety of women, why don't you talk about the migrant crisis? Why are you allowing thousands and thousands of military-aged males from cultures which don't respect women to land on the shores of the UK?"

While much of Tate's defense appears to amount to deflection and whataboutisms, given his own sexual assault case, he also expressed pride in the influence he has over young men, who adopt his controversial rhetoric. However, it is not only the former kickboxer's misogynistic views that have earned him criticism.
His objectification of women in some of his social media content, namely promotional videos, has been criticized for being in direct contrast with the conservative values espoused by Islam, of which he is a proclaimed follower.
Andrew Tate isn't the only high-profile combat sports figure to express controversial views on immigration to the British Isles
Andrew Tate has been a strong critic of mass immigration, but he isn't the only prominent figure from the combat sports world to argue that it has led to an uptick in violent crime. Former UFC double champion Conor McGregor infamously criticized the Irish government for its migration policy.
'The Notorious' was a vocal critic of mass immigration late last year while talking about the stabbings in Ireland, which led to deaths and injuries and were allegedly perpetrated by immigrants.
