Running of the BBC...
In the light of the recent fiasco, is it time the lefties where booted out of the BBC? Should the running of the BBC be handed over to the guardians of all that is good and moral, namely the daily mail?

Oh yes. Scrap the licence fee, bring in commercials, and generally make it just like ITV.
Then we can have quality programmes like Tortoises Do The Craziest Things, Celebrity Knitting with Dale Winton, Britain's Fattest Plumber, and the top new game show, What's In The Bucket, hosted by Jeremy Spake. Obviously the Corporation is far too left-wing (I saw an episode of The Tweenies recently that was just like an address by Kim Jong-il), so even it up by making Nick Griffin the chief political correspondent. Make Question Time more appealing to the masses by putting Keith Chegwin in charge and letting the audience vote for which of the panel should end the show in the gunge tank, and further promote the talents of George Lamb.
Actually, that last one might be going a bit too far.

Now you see parra if you'd have said off to bed with a good woman....
Only kidding.
I'm not saying the B.B.C is perfect (nothing is) but it is very good and I'd go so far as to say it is the best T.V station in the world, it's cheap at the price and that's before you add the radio etc.
True story, "Top Gear" in the 80s did an expose' on new car sales and they showed a load of Renaults in a yard in the docks somewhere covered in mould and muck with flat tyres (been there for months) the CEO at Renault rang the producer to complain and the producer said "if that's how the reporter saw it, I stand by it" the CEO was incredulous with rage at this remark and called one of his bosses in and told him to cancel all their advertising with the B.B.C.
I'd have loved to have been a fly on that wall when....
