They need to give Eilidh Barbour more work please 
I'm sure it was just a coincidence that a few hours after this was announced the government announced the retirement age was going up to 68.
Good day to bury bad news whilst people were being outraged?

Well, if others pay more then I suppose its at their discretion. Not withstanding your comments about having an axe to grinde, if you read my original post it states that the BBC journalism is the poorest of the poor, thus by definition determining that much of the journalism placed before us on news programmes is of a poor standard and poorly researched. AS for other companies I have no idea how much they pay the BBCs counterparts, but i'm sure you do, so I bow to your superior wisdom. Its not me who has an axe to grinde

Indeed, last year 107,000 people were handed a criminal record courtesy of the BBC and Capita.....

As a process it's an absolute scandal, which is indefensible. But then as we can see from this thread there are plenty that think Gary, Vanessa and Graham deserve their money off the back off this process, and are happy so long as the BBC continues to shit out a never ever ending cycle of homes under the hammer and Eastenders. With that kind of logic why should they give a flying f*ck about the poor being criminalised.
The bit that is most delicious is that these BBC fanatics hate the Tories..........they are quite quite deranged*

The fact that I have to sweat my nuts off 5, occasionally 6, sometimes 7 days a week so that I can pay Alan Green to sit behind a microphone and watch the best football in the world, all over the world, free of charge of travel, tickets, accomodation and refreshments, makes my piss boil.
All seem like reasonable salaries to me. Undoubtedly, the gender pay gap is unacceptable, but it just mirrors everywhere else. Until boardrooms start to reflect gender parity in positions of authority and until we create workplaces which recognise the need to address issues like gender, social mobility, inclusivity etc then we'll a) miss out and talent and b) continue to see this unfairness. I bet if you look at pay through the lens of public vs state school education, through ethnicity etc we'll see the same results.
Are any of us surprised at the BBC bashing? I'd love to see the same data from Sky, Daily Mail, Evening Standard, ITV etc. of course, none of them are compelled by the government to publish the salaries of their staff. Yet again, government is getting the public all angry about something they can then sell off in the name of 'what the public wants.' Some bunch of mega rich media moguls will strip it down and some day in the future we'll be stood there with our pants round our ankles wondering what happened to that invaluable Trust that we all once owned. The public can be such mugs.
