Hey you're right Swale, I was a fool to believe him and his chats to others. Looks like things have changed in the last 24 hours.
The minister told the Telegraph: 'There is a real optimism that the BBC will come up with a palatable alternative to the licence fee themselves.

'Tim Davie is open to the idea of a subscription model.'

If Mr Davie is unable to come up with a viable model, he risks facing a battle when the BBC charter is renewed in 2027.

It is understood that Mr Davie will not address the licence fee row when he makes his first speech in his new role later this week.

But BBC insiders told the Telegraph that Mr Davie is concerned the broadcaster is creating too much left-wing, London-centric content.

Never mind eh?
Perhaps he's looked at his pay cut from his £664 000 salary and thinks his bonus won't make it up.
So yes I'm wrong and sorry. I shouldn't have believed his bull****.
Lets see how he fares with Linekers salary of 1.7 Million, now he wants his social media activities curbed.
BTW can someone explain to me how Lineker is also paid a fortune by Walkers, whilst contradicting the BBC's conflict of interest policy?
Strange that?
But hey ho, not a penny from me.
