Resign immediately from the CBI.


Resign immediately from the CBI.
The Issue
I have only just discovered that the BBC is a member of the CBI. I find it astonishing that a so-called public service broadcaster is allowed to report on industrial relations while a member of the main organisation of the employers. But I am disgusted that a few days ago their broadcasters reported STV's immediate resignation from the CBI (on account of continued membership would compromise their alleged impartiality on Scotland's independence referendum) without mentioning that they too were members of the CBI who faced the exact same problem. The BBC has to resign to prove that they are more than a Better Together megaphone. The longer they take to reach this decision the more tattered their credentials are as a public sector broadcaster.
