Read our letter to @Ofcom asking for a new wide-ranging investigation into GB News and its primary backer, Sir Paul Marshall

Our letter to @Telegraph on @lucyfrazermp's suggestion that she'll renege on her deal with the @BBC. Any further cut to the Licence Fee would be catastrophic. @tcmbigcheese #honourthedeal

[Roger Mosey @rogermosey]

The government has already put huge pressure on the BBC’s finances. The cuts are becoming painful. So, if this story is true, it would be shortsighted and destructive to break the promise of an inflation-based increase in funding.

Sharp's appointment process was clearly flawed . However good he might have been as Chair, his credibility is undermined by the chummyness of his appointment over other qualified candidates. This hurts the BBC's credibility at home & around the world
