I would back off on the cynicism a little. I get that it could be a strategy "give em enough rope" and all that. You are correct I am cynical about the BBC reforming itself. I think this will only happen when they are looking into the abyss, but then that's just my opinion. I am serious through the DG really does need to reach out to his paying customers. Any business that is losing hundreds of thousands of customers pa and year after year would be crazy not to understand why.

That abyss is there and the new DG knows this and is circumnavigating it like a ship in a whirlpool.

She works in HR so should know better. I don't like knee jerk sack em reactions but she will needs to do some good talking to get out of this. Her credibility is shredded and how can an HR person lecture the corporation staff on behaviour and standards when she herself is under the spotlight. The best thing she can do for the BBC is to resign.

She is broadly a reasonable political reflection of most people in the BBC....with perhaps worst language. Even if I thought the new DG is serious....and I don't really....He'd have to sack most of his staff to change the culture and he isn't going to do that. The days of charging everyone including right wingers to pay for people like this should have gone a long long time ago. Those who support the BBC's output must pay for it....then individuals like this can carry on with my blessing. Edited by Stirlingsays (07 Sep 2020 7.14pm)

Not heard of her, but they are only words. She would never succeed with the Tories, there she would have to learn how to bully young typists and forcibly eject them from buildings.....

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |
