Gary Lineker to 'step back' from presenting after asylum row: BBC

Gary Lineker will "step back" from presenting his football show until he and the BBC have reached an "agreed and clear position" on his use of social media, the corporation said Friday.

The former England footballer has been embroiled in a row over impartiality after comparing the language used to launch a new British government asylum policy to the rhetoric of 1930s Germany.
