gary lineker agrees, and unsurprisingly tweeted, "the bbc chairman should not be selected by the governmenth public trust. any threat to that is damaging. mr sharp has acknowledged that by stepping aside, praising the corporation as an unmatched creative force. he will remain in post until the end ofjune. katie razzall, bbc news. so why is the bbc chairman appointed by the prime minister and what is the chairman's role? here's our analysis editor ros atkins. richard sharp's resignation raises questions for the bbc, for the government, and about how power works in britain. the job at the centre of the story is bbc chair. the chair leads the bbc board, which has to ensure the bbc delivers its commitments to the country, and the chair is tasked with upholding and protecting the independence of the bbc. and appointing a bbc chair isn't for the bbc to do — it's a government decision, ultimately, a prime minister's decision. and in 2021, it was borisjohnson who appointed richard sharp. but now mr sharp has resigned after breaching the rules of the appointment process. first of all, he failed to d

i mentioned the gary lineker row as well, that was almost like the final straw with this whole saga.straw with this whole saga. it is difficult to measure _ straw with this whole saga. it 3 difficult to measure these things but i suppose if you had to turn to something there was a survey of trust done by a polling organisation in this country by yougov injanuary and the bad news for the bbc is that trust in the bbc has gone down since the last time it was measured. but on the other hand the good news is that we are still far more trusted than any other news organisation in this country and the trust in the bbc stands up pretty well around the world. so absolutely no cause for complacency. but clearly issues like mr sharp and others, you mentioned gary lineker, do present a challenge, there is something else that transcends all of this, and that transcends all of this, and thatis that transcends all of this, and that is that we live, notjust in this country but obviously around the world, in an increasingly polarised world where people have very strong feelings, partly motivated by so

but when gary lineker was taken off air for criticising government policy, and some accuse the bbc ofbbc chairman, once a conservative donor, caught up in his own crisis over his appointment. richard sharp was missing in action until today's critical report into his selection process. this morning he resigned. i have decided that it is right to prioritise the interests of the bbc. i feel that this matter may well be a distraction from the corporation's good work, were i to remain in post until the end of may term. 50 good work, were i to remain in post until the end of may term.— until the end of may term. so why the pressure _ until the end of may term. so why the pressure to _ until the end of may term. so why the pressure to go? _ until the end of may term. so why the pressure to go? today's - until the end of may term. so why| the pressure to go? today's report finds that richard sharp breached rules before and during the selection process for the role of bbc chairman by failing to disclose two potential perceived conflicts of interest. the report's author says mr sharp informed t

there was added pressure for the bbc chairman to resign and make the gary lineker impartiality roy lastmonth. richard sharp denies any wrongdoing. let speak to the chief leader writer at the observer. she was an adviser to ed miliband when he was leader of the opposition. sonia, thank you for being with us. there has been a lot of reaction to this today. what do you make of that statement from the chairman sang, i did nothing wrong, but the perception is there is a fault therefore i will resign. it is im ortant fault therefore i will resign. it is important to _ fault therefore i will resign. it is important to say _ fault therefore i will resign. it 3 important to say that the fault therefore i will resign. it 2 important to say that the job of the investigator was not to look into richard sharp's intentions, what he may have done wrong, what is intentions where in mentioning to the prime minister that he was going for thisjob and making the prime minister that he was going for this job and making this connection to somebody who could help the prime minister right financially. that was

and i think you can also look at things that are on the surface unrelated, but looking at the gary lineker, for example, i think it was... things are becoming a lot more political in terms of these divisions and therefore it is very hard i think for richard sharp, seen as such a government man, although of course number 10 would say he is independent and so far, for him to continue in that role that surrounding him. ithink continue in that role that surrounding him. i think the obviously and now have to see who is brought in as his successor, but i also think it will open the debate about political appointments because ultimately political appointments are ones which often and can, you know, such an affiliation can be a factor in that, and how does that contribute towards transparency and the running of organisations? i think the past months have been pretty bruising or those who argue in favour of political appointments. katy balls, the political editor of the spectator. so, richard sharpe is resigning as bbc chairman. an independent report into his facilitation of a loan that he breached

it came into sharp contrast when the whole gary lineker affair was happening, where the deck —— director—generalperson, adding to the crisis rather than dealing with it. during that time we should have had a bbc chair he was dating from the front, reassuring staff, reassuring the public that the bbc was impartial and independent. the public that the bbc was impartialand independent. he the public that the bbc was impartial and independent. he was no work to be seen because he couldn't be because he couldn't do hisjob any more because he had brought his position and the bbc into such disrepute. i really do feel that he should have been sacked weeks ago. the prime minister had the power to sack him and instead the prime minister has hidden behind this investigation, an investigation i asked for, called for. that is why the report came to me this morning, it was mine, than the prime minister should have shown more leadership weeks ago and got rid of richard sharpe and take a more immediate steps to restore trust and independence in the bbc. thank you. so, the independence in the bbc. thank you. so.
