Some damning comments from Priti Patel too.
This is not going to go away.
I do remember Panorama in particular seeming to regularly investigate El Tel.
Such a pity because I believe, with him as manager, we might have got further in France 98.
There is undoubted hypocrisy from anti-BBC politicians and newspapers about Diana, El Tel, etc. As one poster said earlier, they should clean up their own back yards first.
The fact that these scandals are being dug up from 25 years ago is a bit suspicious. It's as distasteful as the woke among us and their practice of offence archaeology.
The BBC is a worldwide and domestic treasure and I support the licence fee. However, as soon as there is a consistent supermajority in favour of its abolition, its days are numbered. I'd be surprised if the license fee is still here by the middle of next decade, regretfully.
