Martine Croxall, Annita McVeigh, Geeta Guru Murphy, Kaisa Madreira, Karin Giannone.
The 5 permanent BBC 1 network news presenters (without Huw):
Sophie, Reeta, Ben, Clive & Jane (but Jane only seems to be part time now).
I can't remember seeing a Breakfast presenter do a BBC 1 network news bulletin in recent years.
I'd just like the rationale of deliberately keeping 5 of your most experienced news presenters off air on full pay to be explained, when there's ample opportunities for them to be on screen, either on BBC 1 bulletins or the news channel?
