A quick mention to this, which is a collaborative 'cultural reviews' blog I am involved with as part of Sunderland Green Party:

'Just' one issue

http://www.38degrees.org.uk/page/content/BBC-under-threat/

Yes, and the whole campaign against the ideological (and unnecessarily severe) cuts must be waged as number one priority, but this is part of the same battle.

I encourage everyone to write to their MP on this issue of the BBC. Whilst an imperfect organisation, we have to support it as infinitely better and with the scope to improve - in comparison to the completely commercial alternatives. Do people look at Murdoch's broadcasting - Sky News, Fox News - and see a future they really want? Do they look at ITV and see a future even...?

Many thanks for your recent email to Julie Elliott regarding the BBC.

Ms Elliott shares your concern and has written to Jeremy Hunt on the issue. When we receive the minister’s reply we will get back to you.

With best wishes.
