She commences by providing details to the leaked document written by Michael Prescott and released in the Telegraph. "I don't want the BBC tilting toward one side or the other, My only wish is for it balanced, impartial and equitable," he says. In response to a query whether he considers the BBC is structurally prejudiced, he replies: "No, I do not.

However, he continues: "There is significant effort that needs to be done at the British Broadcasting Corporation."
