Delighted new BBC DG, Tim Davie, has made impartiality his number one priority: “Trust in our impartiality is not a nice to have, it is the very essence of who we are. It is the bedrock of why people come to us. We urgently need to champion and recommit to impartiality. (1/4)

"Making use of our own experiences but not driven by our personal agendas. But it is about being free from political bias, guided by the pursuit of truth, not a particular agenda. (2/4)

"If you want to be an opinionated columnist or a partisan campaigner on social media then that is a valid choice, but you should not be working at the BBC. (3/4)

"We’ll take action in coming weeks, but to be clear, there will be new guidance on how we best deliver our impartiality guideline; new social media rules, which will be rigorously enforced; and clearer direction on the declaration of external interests." (4/4)
