Important:
This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Immediately remove George Entwistle from his post at the BBC.
More details
It has been revealed that Mr Entwistle was aware of the content of a Newsnight investigation into the child abuse activities of Jimmy Saville while he was making tributes to the alleged paedophile after his death. That means he LIED to the people and that makes him FUNDAMENTALLY UNTRUSTWORTHY to hold the position he does - when will he next lie to us to cover up an illegal act? He MUST NOT be given that opportunity. He MUST immediately be removed.
