Over the years there were countless of examples of the BBC cravenly following the governing parties agenda - but there were also some really powerful documentaries and exposes of private medicine, now and again, & some pro NHS stuff too. And I guess that's what the oligarch class wants to stop.

In many ways what was done to the BBC, from the days of Birtism, was then done to the NHS. The failed free market mantras of supposedly 'lean' working & outsourcing, resulting in a loss of professionalism & creativity & its replacement with sprawling management bureauracy & massive *inefficiencies*.
