In my opinion...There was a time when the BBC was seen as the yardstick which every other broadcaster used as a measure for perfection and professionalism.
Not these days i'm afraid, every other broadcaster and member of the public now know exactly what the BBC is all about given the way it mistreats its staff, the on air gaffes and mistakes, the constant threat of deep financial cuts and selling off assets due to the weak 'yes men' who say "how high"? when the government shout jump.
This is just another erosion of working conditions that if left well alone loyal staff would put up with the lack of pay increases and salami slicing. When they moved the goalposts regarding schedule 'A' payments for overnights, ditched the working hours regulations and started quibbling about meal claims they signalled that as long as the shift gets done the BBC actually don't care about anything else.
The job is hard enough without having to worry about where you are going to park your vehicle.
