BBC part of conspiracy, says Dyke

Greg Dyke, the former director general of the BBC, has accused the corporation of being part of a “conspiracy” preventing “radical changes” needed in UK democracy.

Mr Dyke, who was forced to quit as director-general in 2004 after the Hutton report into the death of government scientist Dr David Kelly, said there had never been a greater separation of the “political class” from the public.
