Tony Livesey - pretty much the voice of BBC Radio 5 Live - has been taken off air following allegations he arranged a meeting between David Sullivan and a young woman in the 1990s.
He denies the allegation.
It's also emerged that he ran a 'Countdown to 16' project, where readers of his newspaper were teased with photos of partially clothed schoolgirls. Then, the girls' 16th birthdays were announced with the publication of topless photos.
I fully believe the BBC has zero understanding of safeguarding, and has never even attempted to sort out the deep-rooted issues it has.
