Earners

Katherine Rushton in the Mail has found two BBC names signed up for a conference on 'Global Citizenship', run by a company that helps people obtain passports from other countries. Fiona Bruce and Simon Jack will no longer be attending the event (£1,500 per delegate) at the Rosewood Hotel, Holborn, London, in November. It's not clear whether or not they really knew they were going; it's possible their agent, Alex Armitage, may have put the conference in their schedules.

The Mail says guidelines for presenters with sidelines like this will be re-inforced.
