I’ve written to the BBC Director General to express my concerns over plans to deeply cut BBC local radio services BBC Radio Sussex & wider-I truly love local radio-as do many of my constituents. Friends & former colleagues working there & across the BBC haven’t been convinced & brought on the journey.
Thanks to the great journalists, community focussed producers, reporters & presenters who have been in touch-it’s a horribly difficult time for all. I greatly believe these unwise changes will decimate distinctiveness, drive listeners away & are extremely counterproductive #SaveBBCSussex
Let me know if you want to join my campaign to keep our output local.
Please see below my letter to the BBC Director General.
