@Gecko Dear BBC, can you verify whether or not you have been unduly influenced by the #ToryCorruption party over the last decade or so?
Simple question.

“while the Tory party had been hurt by repeated allegations of sleaze, especially during the Johnson years, voters were not yet as angry about the scandals as they had been in the late 1990s”
Perhaps because we’ve become inured to Tory sleaze; maybe that was their plan all along. Just keep behaving that way, and the plebs will start to see it as normal...
#Johnson's mendacity & narcissism still haunts the UK, #RichardSharp being the latest in a long line taking their cue from the then #PM. Don't forget #Sunak was a sycophantic supporter until it became clear that Johnson was a busted flush. https://tinyurl.com/34bby4bb #TorySleaze
Resign or stay put?
Sharp's fate in Chancellor's hands
Choice not easy made
The day after Richard Sharp resigns because he’s a political appointee in a massively corrupt deal with an ex Tory PM & Rishi Sunak is told to stop putting Tory supporters & donors in the BBC, the express lead with Bloody woke Lineker it’s all his fault

A moment ago #BBC chairman #RichardSharp was forced to resign after revelation of undisclosed links to #BorisJohnson as a friend and party donor when he was appointed, making him formally non-independent in relation to one political party. Pretty severe behavior when you handle billions in public funds, yet somehow pretty normative. So…
BUUUUUURN CRONY CORRUPTION!!!
The big unanswered #RichardSharp question is who provided the money for the £800K loan to Johnson?
In other words, who was bankrolling #johnson

#RichardSharp "Failed to disclose potential perceived conflicts of interest," it said in the report.
They will dress this with the polite word #cronyism.
It isn't.
It is CORRUPTION
"As a result, this breach has caused untold damage to the reputation of the BBC and seriously undermined its independence as a result of the Conservatives’ sleaze and cronyism." Lucy Powell
How about Gary Lineker for BBC Chairperson?
#BBC:n ulkopuolinen selvitys on valmistunut, ja #RichardSharp eroaa.
Hyvä.

“Richard Sharp is out at the BBC: now can we think about how we hold other miscreants to account?”
Indeed. And there are so many to choose from…
“Intolerance of minor faults in those who rule us is the price we pay for being unable to get accountability for major ones.”
Though where outright dishonesty is involved, I would not characterise a fault as minor.
#BBCChairman #RichardSharp resigns 4 months into the scandal and 2 years after this Tory donor never should have been appointed!

So. #RichardSharp has finally resigned. Another one marking that we've transitioned from people honourably taking responsibility for their actions to a time when you can behave as you like and if caught only resign when you've exhausted all possibility of weathering the storm.
We here at Tory H.Q. are appalled by yet another typical Leftist, Woke attack on our great friend and Donor Richard ‘Dick’ Sharp. Remember your priory is stopping Boats, not Tory corruption & 13 years of disaster after disaster but BOATS! BOOAATTSSS

"NUJ welcomes resignation of BBC chair Richard Sharp"
https://www.nuj.org.uk/resource/nuj-welcomes-resignation-of-bbc-chair-richard-sharp.html
Amazingly, allowing the government to appoint the leader of an independent media corporation turned out to be a bad idea. Who could have foreseen such a shambles?
In short, two breaches:
1) Sharp informed then Prime Minister Boris Johnson that he "wished to apply to be chair of the BBC board, before he made his application in November 2020".
2) Sharp told Johnson, before he was interviewed, that he was going to to make the introduction between Sam Blyth and the Cabinet Secretary Simon Case, with Blyth having suggested he might be able to "assist the former prime minister with his personal finances".
Tory Poodle runs way with tail between legs
