BBC's Sharp forced to quit in anti-Tory witch-hunt, say MPs
Sunday Express
|April 30, 2023
FORMER BBC chairman Richard Sharp was the victim of an anti-Tory witch-hunt, Conservatives have claimed.
Former housing minister Esther McVey said: "It's going to be one after another now, going for all the Tories in various industries."
Mr Sharp resigned as BBC chairman after being found to have broken rules by failing to disclose that he played a role in getting former prime minister Boris Johnson an £800,000 loan guarantee.
A review by barrister Adam Heppinstall found the former Tory donor twice breached the code governing public appointments, risking the perception that he was not independent from the then-prime minister.
