Scottish Independence: Call for clarity on BBC
Alex Salmond has been accused of “playing fast and loose” with the BBC, with Labour claiming the First Minister has failed to set out details of plans to break up the broadcasting corporation.
Shadow Scottish Secretary Margaret Curran hit out at the First Minister a year after he said he would split up the BBC if Scotland voted for independence, to create a new public services broadcaster for north of the border.
The Labour MP said 12 months on from his speech at the Edinburgh International Television festival that the SNP leader had “not provided any certainty” on what would happen to BBC staff.
