You,the license fee payer, deserve better than this. Of course BBC local radio needs to change and evolve but not to be what over 5million older listeners want it to be, which is local first #KeepBBCLocalRadioLocal

This strike is not about pay. It's about license fee payers having a BBC local radio service as it should be, local, with changes and investment in it's future, not being a regional service for hours a day and all weekend. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

So important to know that it’s not about our pay but cuts to vital local services. Even the dog agrees! 🐕 NUJ #KeepBBCLocalRadioLocal BBC Hereford & Worcester #WORCESTERSHIRE #Herefordshire

I’m joining colleagues @bbcglos in 48 hours of @nujofficial industrial action. This is not about pay - it’s about cutting back on local programming. The BBC plans to invest more in local digital content and says the plans “will provide a better service” #KeepBBCLocalRadioLocal

In solidarity with my colleagues @bbcglos and across the UK. We’re taking industrial action for next two days in protest at changes to share local radio programming with huge loss of much loved presenters. NUJ #KeepBBCLocalRadioLocal

On the picket BBC Gloucestershire today. This is not about pay - it's to keep local radio broadcasting from our local area. The BBC are investing in digital which is positive for journalism but not for the hours of other local content we produce NUJ
