No More BBC BUS

Say Goodbye to the BBC Bus, as Last Friday I drove it to Manchester and droped it off at the BBC on Oxford road for the last time.

Thanks for the good times!!!!

In Other news my strand on where the money from last years BBC Panto is going, is running this week. You can hear all the packages on BBC Radio Humberside or visit http://www.bbc.co.uk/humber/content/articles/2008/01/21/panto_charities_feature.shtml

The BBC and The Unions agree.


Well it's a start. The BBC and the Joint unions have started to agree. This May safeguard my job, safeguard the quality of BBC output and safeguard trust in a BBC which is being lead from one disaster to another. (Blue Peter ect.)

The BBC had a very bad 2007 with trust in the corperation at an all time low. If strike action is taken by the unions this is only hurt the cooperation in the long term.

It's time for Mark Thomson and the BBC Trust to stand up and be counted. Thanks for listening Mark now act. Your cooperation is hurting and staff moral is at a 20 year time low. We where , not so long ago, the most creative organization in the world. Lets get back there and let the broadcasters broadcast.

I fear that it is too late for the Buses, however you can save the open centers and keep the hard earned respect of our audiences.

For more information on the union/BBC talks look at these websites.

Fight for Your BBC


Tomorrow the votes will be counted in for Strike action in the BBC. Jobs have already been cut and people have started to lose the UPA. With Pensions and more jobs under threat the BBC is asking itself where does it go from here.


On Friady this week I will be taking our BBC Bus over to BBC Manchester for Scrappimg. This was one way that the BBC met the audence now we are back in the ivory towers is Cities across the UK.

Hope for a Yes vote for Strike action and hope that job cuts in the BBC are not made in Broadcast areas. Can we run a radio or TV station with less staff? Well Yes, but would it be worth watching or lisening to? NO!

As you pay the licesnce fee, you can demand quaity in the broadcast that you pay for.
