If Boris Johnson can appoint former GBNews adviser and pro Israel endorser, Robbie Gibb to the board of the BBC why can’t Starmer replace him? The BBC is under serious threat and Labour don’t seem to care.
Gibb position on BBC board ‘untenable’, says Swinney
The comments come amid a bias row at the broadcaster which has seen two of its top bosses resign.

Sir Robbie Gibb's role in the BBC boardroom - to kill the BBC off.
I’m often critical of the BBC about them platforming Reform and their constant reliance on what they believe is ‘balance’ BUT the politicising of the Board with people like Gibb needs to be addressed. Get him out.

Murdoch, who would like to see the BBC killed off, must be very happy with his journalists on The Times and The Sunday Times.
Almost certainly they think they are independent of Murdoch.
But, of course, if they thought any different, they wouldn't be in their jobs
