  • 28/04/2023

Chairman of the BBC, Richard Sharp, resigned on Friday following the discovery of a rule violation regarding a loan for former Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Sharp said he had concurred to a plea to stay on until the end of June in order to give the government time to find his replacement. The process by which Sharp was chosen by the government to lead the broadcaster in 2021 is currently being looked into by the nation's public appointments watchdog.
