        £1.6m to talk utter dribble in the morning. I can do that for free. And I have red hair.

        We're not short of competent presenters. Set the pay. Advertise the job. Recruit the talented unknowns who don't have the benefit of a hot-shot agent. Put an end to jobs for the boys with over-inflated salaries at the license payer's expense. Oh, and pay taxes too.

        The BBC is publicly funded, those that pay the TV licence should have a right to know what somebody is paid. If the BBC don’t like that they can always scrap the TV licence and fund themselves another way.

        Too many greedy people work for the BBC. Abolish the licence fee as it's a tax we shudnt av to pay. Let BBC deal with proper market forces...

        He's been in decline for a while now, the BBC can get somebody in with fresh ideas and ultimately save a fair bit in wages so good riddance.

        And we are bothered because? If you work at BBC, we're your employers! We deserve more info if anything. @achrisevans is easily replaced. Never understood the fuss. #BigHead #Obnoxious

        To host a public funded radio show there should be a pay limit. 50k pa seems reasonable. Where do I apply?

        surely the licence fee payers are shareholders of the Beeb and have a right to know who gets paid what with their money!
