Well then, it looks like Alan Yentob is a man with a lot of explaining to do with regard to HIS role in a/The Kids Company and b/Newsnight coverage of this story. Guido has additional insight here. The increasingly bizarre behaviour of this senior BBC executive raises more questions than answers.
YENTOB….

What exactly does his role at the BBC entail.Seems hes raking in the cash for very little.
Exactly….what does he do for £330k…£4m pension pot….is he an actor…musician…carpenter….skilled in any way…..no, like Vaz and Owen Jones, he floats about, sipping wine at parties, fakes erudition, glad hands, but….he is very, very good at spending tax-payers cash…..and there are 1000’s of charlatans like him….
His name spells Botney backwards. Is this the most interesting thing about him? What do you think?
Maybe this is a clue as to why the bbc want tax payers money to fund them rather than try to finance themselves.
They have no clue as to monetery value and how to spend it wisely.
I dunno about anyone else, but I keep smelling a rat whenever Batman mentions the “self referring” aspect of Kids Company. Then there are reports of brown envelopes of cash going out the door. This rabbit-hole needs some close investigation, including Yentob. Also where does the LSE fit into this?
I wonder if children in need gave money over to KC?
Perhaps he stuck his banana in Batmanghelidjh’s fruit basket?
