Tom gets it - the unique role BBC Introducing has in uncovering new local talent who might otherwise slip through the net. So, BBC Local Management - it’s “2-4-6-8, never too late” to stop your unpopular plans for local radio. #KeepBBCLocalRadioLocal

The number of days many of our members in BBC Local across England have been at risk of redundancy. The union will never give up fighting for the best interests of members. We are re-balloting members across BBC England. #KeepBBCLocalRadioLocal

Glad that BBC Radio 4 Today are showcasing interviews done on BBC local radio. Be even better if they gave more coverage to the cuts to BBC local radio. Their grassroots, their training ground. Nick Robinson

Paul Siegert, NUJ: "Cuts have consequences, as we have seen with cuts to BBC Local Radio this year." “BBC is already pursuing £500 million in savings. In BBC Local we’ve seen local radio programmes cut, with shared shows doing away with truly local programming & many jobs lost."

Please read this from Phillip Norton - he was doing his job in difficult circumstances and the clip shared on social media did not reflect his overall report - it needs to be taken in context. Thanks to the BBC for their statement. Journalists should not face personal attacks.
