BBC director-general Tim Davie has said he can “lead” the corporation in the “right way” following a series of reputational scandals faced by the organisation.

The BBC has been criticised for a number of failings in recent months which include breaching its own accuracy editorial guidelines, livestreaming the controversial Bob Vylan Glastonbury set, and recent misconduct allegations surrounding the former MasterChef presenter Gregg Wallace.
