I’m glad someone else gets it.
Well, quite. Is merging the two news channels a good idea? Almost certainly not. Is it necessary? With the amount of cutbacks, yes. £285 million is the amount of money that the BBC has to find over the next few years in order to keep afloat. How can they do that? By cut, cut, cutting services. It is a harsh reality.
