BBC chief Richard Sharp's position is “increasingly untenable” after a scathing report by cross-party MPs into his role in facilitating a loan guarantee for Boris Johnson.
The under-fire Chairman was accused of making “significant errors of judgement” by acting as a go-between when the ex-Prime Minister found himself in financial difficulty in 2020.
Mr Sharp has admitted to introducing Canadian millionaire Sam Blyth - a distant cousin of Mr Johnson's - to Cabinet Secretary Simon Case. He did not arrange the loan of up to £800,000.
