AMAZING; 91 BBC WORKERS EARN MORE THAN TWICE WHAT BRITISH PM DAVID CAMERON EARNS

The BBC pays some 91 of its executives more than the Prime Minister.

Astonishingly, 11 of them earn twice as much as David Cameron’s £142,000-a-year.

Among them are director general Lord Hall, on £450,000; BBC One controller Charlotte Moore, on £240,000; and head of radio Helen Boaden, with a package worth £352,900.

Taking annual bonuses into account, the group – many of whom have worked for the corporation for decades – receive close to £90million a year.

The figures, published by the BBC in the interests of transparency, show that the number of managers receiving huge salaries is rising, not falling – despite repeated promises from BBC bosses to cut costs and do ‘far more with less.

At the start of this year, 87 members of staff received salaries greater than the PM – but this has subsequently risen 3.5 per cent to 91. The details were disclosed under a BBC policy to publish the salaries of anyone in its management structure receiving more than £150,000.
