ConservativeHome's ToryDiary: John Whittingdale leads concern at Ross-Brand calls

Further to my post earlier

ConservativeHome's ToryDiary: John Whittingdale leads concern at Ross-Brand calls:

"[Conservative MP] Roger Gale called for the resignation of the Director General of the BBC Mark Thompson, following the controversy surrounding prank phone calls made to Andrew Sachs.

'I think the buck needs to stop right at the top with those with editorial control.

“There's a great danger that under these circumstances the BBC will find a scapegoat which will probably be the schoolboy that produced the programme, rather than taking editorial repsonsiblity where it lies - with the editor-in-chief, or the person who used to be called the Director General, which is Mark Thompson,"

Funny how the Tories always seem to want someone to "carry the can", the buck has to stop with someone...as long as your name isn't George Osbourne and you've just went to a Russian billionaire's yacht....with your party's chief fund raiser in tow...and discussed donations....and how they can be made without contravening rules on foreigners donating to UK political parties.
