Hi all

Here's a Guardian article on the BBC proposing a UK Radio Council to 
represent the whole industry

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/mar/26/bbc-commercial-radio-union

Erm - except that the sector that will soon have more on air stations 
than commercial radio - yup - community radio - doesn't seem to be 
invited to the party.

No doubt, we will be invited in but really, what sort of thinking leads 
to this...'BBC & The Radio Centre = UK Radio'?  I'd be far more rude but 
this is a widely read forum!
