BBC sacks Danny Baker over royal baby chimp tweetCorporation says veteran broadcaster’s joke was ‘a serious error of judgment’ How long until they announce Farage is taking over his saturday morning slot on 5live? Danny is thicker than I had ever hoped. Good. If he genuinely thought that was not offensive, which I question, then his lack of awareness means he needs not to be given a national platform.

If an MP can go to jail & then be let back into the house, why can’t Danny make a mistake also?

Letters: Good on the BBC for taking racism seriously – Danny Baker had to goPlease send your letters to lettersindependent.co.uk This is hypocrisy..in fact if BBC is serious on fighting racism ,they should let Danny Baker stay and explain his action ....maybe we all got the wrong message .....he might have wanted to pass another message which we have not allowed him to explain for once they took action..respect towards Royalty still there but not much else left of the credibility/standards at the BBC. Yet, you appear to condone Farage spouting racist crap with impunity? BBC get your act together if you wish to retain any credibility.
