“While this work is undertaken, the current social media guidance remains in place. Gary is in favour of such a review and I’m pleased that he will be back on air this coming weekend. Gary is a brilliant broadcaster and a valued part of the BBC. I also know how much the organisation means to him.
“We’ve had a difficult weekend. But it’s right that we listen and that we ask ourselves questions to ensure that we continue to fight for a BBC that delivers world-class, impartial output for all audiences.
“Overall, over the last two years, we have seen strong audience research showing that we are delivering fair and balanced output. We are one of the most trusted brands globally and in this polarised world we are needed more than ever. Thanks to everyone for continuing to support that work. Best wishes, Tim.”
