MONEY FOR OLD ROPE

The BBC Trust, according to reports today, is on the warpath because 40 – yes 40 – BBC ‘stars’ earn more than £1m a year, with 10 of them on more than £2m a year. That’s the cash from almost 360,000 licence-fee payers (£50m divided by £139.50). But they won’t name them. Which kind of begs the question – scratch you head here and think very hard – which of the morons who are BBC presenters deserve that kind of cash? And why the hell haven’t the BBC trustees (all ivory-tower quangocrats) done something about it before now? It’s our money!
