Ex Creation Records. Ex BBC. Picker of guitars, squeezer of bagpipes. Burnsian. Raconteur. Historian. Jags fan. Geezer.
The Hutton Report destroyed the BBC and left it unable to criticise any future UK govt action or policy.
Mr Campbell was in the thick of this, alongside Peter Mandelson. There was a mixed feeling of shock, fear and the dawning realisation that we had been completely stitched up.
Horrible times.

Kemi Badenoch has just said it's a ploy to distract people from Andy Burnham's leadership ambitions. I don't really think Andy Burnham is on the minds of many in Scotland, Wales and N. Ireland either. It's a very Anglo-centric notion.

I remember when the decision was made to make BBC1 a "dumbed down" channel and shift former BBC1 type content to BBC2. All in the name of ratings. BBC4 was supposed to be the "new BBC2", but it was massively underfunded. It's been a race to the bottom ever since.

She seems very suited for Reform. (That's not meant to be taken as a positive in any way).
