Broadcaster says row over Boris Johnson loan is causing ‘great deal of damage for the BBC’
The broadcaster Jonathan Dimbleby has said the BBC chair, Richard Sharp, should “fall on his sword” over criticism of him for helping Boris Johnson secure an £800,000 loan, saying the row was causing a “great deal of damage for the BBC”.
Patience Wheatcroft, the former journalist who now sits in the House of Lords, also said she believed Sharp should resign, saying the BBC needed a chair with “impeccable judgment”.
