"Having spoken to many of our BBC colleagues over the last week, there is a recurring narrative of toxic culture that now exists at the BBC, reflected in the working environment from the Director General downwards. Our own experiences of aggressive and confrontational dialogue (particularly with xxxxx xxxxxx) have been echoed time and time again in accounts from other colleagues. A culture of fear and paranoia has been created as seismic decisions on the corporation’s future are taken at speed without any proper analysis or meaningful consultation."
An extract from a letter to the BBC Chairman Richard Sharp, "as the only other person in the senior team who has heard the BBC Singers", by the Choir's current co-directors has fallen into the hands of Norman Lebrecht, blogging indefatigably at Slipped Disc.
Eye-watering stuff that's worth a read.
