Getting rid of them is not cheap endeavourWhich in the context of Radio Leeds would probably include the likes of current weekend breakfast (but previously weekday) presenter Andrew Edwards and weekend afternoon (and also previously until Covid weekday lunchtime) presenter Liz Green
Also have these cuts been covered on the national or regional news anywhere? The BBC usually don’t need much excuse to criticise themselves.
