CUT AND TRUST….

Former BBC employee and NuLabour talking head Ben Bradshaw believes the License tax should be cut a little and the BBC trust scrapped. I disagree. The License tax should be scrapped and then they can do whatever they want with their management team, they’ll be paying for it, not me. There was a debate on this earlier this morning on Today with John Whittingdale MP and the thing that struck me was Humphyrs recantation that regardless of changes to the Trust and “top-slicing” the essential structure of the BBC would stay the same. That’s the problem. Sir Michael Lyons is on later but I have better things to do than listen to him.
