Shumeet Banerji resigned from the BBC board due to governance issues, citing exclusion from key discussions following the resignations of Tim Davie and Deborah Turness and criticizing Samir Shah and Robbie Gibb for alleged political influence and bias. These events occurred after controversy over a BBC Panorama episode that edited Donald Trump’s 2021 speech, suggested his role in the January 6 riot, and led Trump to threaten a $1 billion lawsuit, prompting the BBC’s apology. The BBC faces parliamentary scrutiny, ongoing board changes with Damon Buffini extending his non-executive term, and potential reforms as Lisa Nandy expressed concerns over political appointments and public trust.
