The BBC should split in two, News and current affairs on the one hand and everything else in the other. Talent in the other camp can then hold whatever personal views they wish and are able to express them without compromising the BBC.

Trump and his cronies have the BBC in their sights. Leaders can’t stay silent while one of our great institutions is attacked.
We must defend its independence, end political appointments, and remove Robbie Gibb from the Board.

This is really frightening for the us and the rest of the western democracies
This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.

Mike just ask the BBC if they’re the official mouthpiece for Reform, and they’ll let you know just as soon as Farage tells them what to say 😉
Is the BBC Reform UK's mouthpiece? Yup.
"Researchers at Cardiff University have produced a detailed analysis of every episode of the BBC’s flagship Question Time programme broadcast between September 2014 and July 2023 to see if the broadcaster was balancing political viewpoints."

So an idea. Instead of fining water companies why not take that fine as shares back into public ownership. That way the consumers don't end up paying in the end like they do today and the cost for renationalising reduces for each failure. Win Win
