Title: Mutual BBC?
Post by Administrator on Mar 29^th, 2016, 2:37pm

According to "The Guardian" :-

"The BBC should be turned into a mutual organisation and its board elected by licence fee payers, a pair of MPs has suggested.

The broadcaster would benefit from more direct ownership by the people who pay for it, rather than the current system, which allows for too much government interference, Labour’s Gareth Thomas and Tory MP Steve Baker said."
