The Anus Eater (Nadine Dorries, Culture Secretary) has revealed the usual method for destroying something the Conservatives do not like. Underfund it so it gives an inferior service then express surprise and say: "It needs to be changed".
We see it with the NHS and now the BBC is next in the firing line.

Murdoch has been trying to get the BBC funding changed for years, looks like he'll get his way finally. I'll be sad to see it go. Dorries admires Netflix but I don't see how an over-the-air broadcaster can adopt that model unless it switches to on-line only. Paid advertising? I'd prefer it didn't go that way but options are limited. Then there's the radio channels...
So a privatised BBC because privatisation has worked so well in other areas.
