writes for "The Huffington Post", here, advising BBC Shareholders (i.e. Listeners and viewers) that:-

"Now is the time to start shouting.
Sign petitions,
write to your MP.
Go to the consultation website;
send an email to BBCCharterReviewConsultation@culture.gov.uk or
write a letter to BBC Charter Review Consultation, DCMS, 100 Parliament Street, London SW1A 2BQ.

Tell them what you want the BBC to do, tell them what you value.

But don't put it off - the consultation process ends on 8 October."
