Rejected petition Scrap the BBC Trust

More details

The BBC Trust is an unnecessary expense with no demonstrable, public, democratic accountability. Senior managers of the BBC should be directly accountable to Parliament for the provision of public broadcasting. The Trust is a completly unnecessary tier of management and should be scrapped and without any public pay off to serving Trustees by the way.
