The British people find the proposed 1% pay raise for the English NHS unfair when one single, publicly funded BBC presenter is paid a salary of £1,752,500 (10 times that of the Prime Minister).

The BBC’s highest paid presenter is paid the same as 52 nurses; another circa 60 BBC presenters earn more than the PM.
