If signing an open letter calling for assylum seekers to be treated in a humanitarian way in accordance with international law (and responding to ill-informed criticism) brings the BBC into disrepute, we are pretty much screwed as a society.

This single thing is not the issue. He has said and done a whole lot more so I don’t think it’s particularly useful to try use this example….

As for the previous walk out, I must say this did not go down well given that not everyone has the advantage of being able to just walk out of their job every time their employer doesn’t agree with them.


The average member of the public is not going to be able to tell you about business divisions within the BBC. It’s just one big BBC.
