as for mr sharp, i'm told his view was that there was an effective introduction at the meeting — as mrer and left the impression the two would meet. from borisjohnson from boris johnson and from borisjohnson and sam dwyer, we haven't heard anything. sima kotecha looks at the day's events. for an organisation committed, over the years, to political impartiality, the appointment of its chairman is anything but. someone they like and trust, given the role to uphold and protect the bbc�*s independence. and, as history shows, political patronage has often played a part. conservative prime ministers have tended to pick conservative chairmen, while labour prime ministers have often chosen labour chairman. harold wilson stands on the very steps... when labour's harold wilson became prime minister in 1964, there was no ambiguity as to what he thought of the bbc. dominated by tories and damaging to his own party. a few years later, he appointed lord hill as chairman to "sort out" the corporation. in margaret thatcher's days, she appointed marmaduke hussey to deal with what she thought was left—w

but now mr sharp has resigned after breaching the rules of the appointment process.hnson he wanted the job before he'd applied for it. and the next issue concerns mrjohnson, too. let's bring in the canadian millionaire sam blyth. he wanted to offer the then—prime minister financial help with a loan guarantee. he asked his friend richard sharp if he could make a connection. to do that, richard sharp spoke to the cabinet secretary and head of the civil service, simon case. richard sharp thought that was sufficient disclosure. today's report found that it wasn't, and richard sharp says he now regrets not mentioning that conversation. and that oversight brought risks for the bbc, because while the bbc did not appoint richard sharp, its director general tim davie has been vocal on impartiality. this story risked undermining that message. and in the end, it's worth emphasising that all of this has happened because of a failure to mention one conversation. not because the bbc chair is a long—time acquaintance of the prime minister who appointed him. mot because the bbc chai

earlier this year mr sharp was accused of serious errors of judgment. serious errors ofjudgment. we have to wait to see what this report says. but any criticism is likely to increase pressure on mr sharp to step down. it is also likely to increase pressure on the government because the bbc doesn't have the power to remove its chairman. that is for the government. so, if there is any criticism you are likely to get calls from the opposition for the prime minister to intervene. like ou. prime minister to intervene. like you. ukrainian _ prime minister to intervene. like you. ukrainian cities _ prime minister to intervene. like you. ukrainian cities have been struck by a wave of micelles this morning, with kyiv suffering a heavy attack for the first time in more than 50 days. let's get more from our respondent hugo checa. how widespread is this?— widespread is this? yeah, good morninu. widespread is this? yeah, good morning- it _ widespread is this? yeah, good morning. it is _ widespread is this? yeah, good morning. it is a _ widespread is this? yeah, good

there have also been some criticism is politically of mr sharp, and his response here.lete my chair is the culture media and sport select committee, suggested that damage to trust in the bbc, to the public appointments process, and to mr sharp, his reputation himself, could have been avoided if he had been more open. the attention is now really turning to that process about how a new bbc chair will be chosen. lots of calls in westminster for that to be seen to be transparent, rigorous and independent. the snp suggesting that the post should not be held by a tory donor this time round. rishi sunak was asked about this earlier and said it was right to turn to the established appointments process when the time came to select the next chair. asked whether he could guarantee richard shop's replacement would be a nonpolitical appointment, he said they werejumping nonpolitical appointment, he said they were jumping ahead, there nonpolitical appointment, he said they werejumping ahead, there is an established process for all these things and it would be right that we turn to th
