GLYN Limmer refers to Lord Norman Fowler as a “Thatcher dinosaur” who is advocating privatisation of part of the BBC (Oxford Mail, May 21).
As Lord Fowler is not in David Cameron’s cabinet, I wonder why Mr Limmer is bothered about what the peer says. Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt is the politician who may make a decision about the BBC.
Anyone complaining about the legacy of Mrs Thatcher, who left office two decades ago, is likely to be getting on a bit themselves so perhaps Mr Limmer ought to beware the saying about stones and glass houses.
