Nandy has made the wrong choice on Robbie Gibb, the PM must step in

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy’s refusal to review the BBC Board membership of Robbie Gibb, Liberal Democrat Culture, Media and Sports Spokesperson Anna Sabine MP said:

"This is the wrong choice by Lisa Nandy. Robbie Gibb isn’t fit to serve on the BBC Board, and the BBC Charter gives the Government the power to sack him.

"I hope the Prime Minister will step in and do the right thing."
