The people at the top of the BBC aren't allowed to. Argue with the UK
*government*. But if you do, note the Radio Times (*not* owned by the BBC)
repeatedly making a fuss about the minister responsible failing to read
many thousands of submissions wrt the future of the BBC whilst claiming he
has done so. And then look at his track record and not be surprised.

I won't go on as this gets very OT. But I wish people wouldn't blame people
at the BBC because of the way those around them tie their hands. Tell the
politicians it is *their* job to make possible what you want and to get
them off the BBC's back.

But note that some politicians may not want the BBC to thrive and would
rather it did less, than it did more. So you may be talking to those who
turn a deaf ear.

Erm... IMHO. 8-]
