If anything fundamentally changes at the BBC after its ten yearly licence review  I will personally buy a hat from Paddy Ashdown and eat it.The conservatives have past form on huffing and puffing about the BBC and its institutional leftism yet here we are with a bloated corporation a thousand times more powerful than ever .Even Norman Tebbit could not touch the BBC but the idea that this feeble Whitingdale character is going to slay the beast is frankly risible.

I do not claim any Nostradamic  powers on this matter,it is rather that, in the words of an unknown philosopher called Frank Cain,"characteristics are reliable".
