Shadow culture secretary Ben Bradshaw has written to Mark Thompson after the BBC director general visited Downing Street to discuss coverage of spending cuts. Mr Bradshaw wrote seeking "clarification and reassurance" on the content of the meeting.


Former culture secretary Ben Bradshaw has called the government freeze of the TV licence fee and 16% cuts to the BBC's budget an "act of cultural and political vandalism".
