You could pay me enough to watch the game awards but you'd surprised at where my price starts at. The Keighleys can, in no uncertain terms, get stuffed.

That's around the entirety of what gets deducted from my salary in tax and national insurance per month in the UK. To pay for just what was the (if I understand it) government subsidised package. Bloody hellfire.
My ACA current plan is going from $385/mo to $821/mo.

but the question remain, who does Tim Davie will regenerate as?
Can’t believe Disney have pulled all their money out of Tim Davie.

Here’s hoping they go back to a Director General with smaller scale stories, set mainly in Broadcasting House, and bring back some classic old baddies, like the National Viewers And Listeners Association.

Michael Prescott's report makes vital points about the importance of being accurate, and also how difficult that is. For instance, he describes himself as having been Political Editor of the Sunday Times for 10 years, which is not what the Guardian reported when he left the job.

Robbie Gibb criticising the BBC for journalistic standards is a glass house so big you could hold the Great Exhibition of 1851 in it and still have room for an excellent tomato crop
Should Gibb be sacked? yes, obviously. He's an abomination of basic journalistic standards. His GB News channel spreads conspiracy theory & disinformation. His Jewish Chronicle newspaper spreads invented stories. He is plainly trying to undermine the BBC so it's as bad as everything else he touches.

Obviously, it’s been a tough day for the BBC. Big organisations, working under big pressure, will sadly make errors

But I still feel huge pride in hosting a BBC podcast, and having previously spent 11 years making a world-renowned children’s show that no other broadcaster would have made
