He also said there was no comparison between Germany in the 30s because the people being dehumanized by language then were being persecuted and trying to flee the country whilst many of the people being dehumanized by language now were persecuted and fled their country seeking refuge on our shores.
In my opinion that is misconstruing Lineker's tweet but then opinions are usually free so I can see how you reached yours.
For what it is worth I saw no evidence of James lying.
