In November of 2021, Andrew Marr revealed that he would be leaving the BBC. Here are the details.
Under a partnership with radio company Global Media, the experienced journalist, 62, will host a new opinion-led political show on LBC and an arts and music show on Classic FM.
Mar’s new post allows him to express his long-held centrist political ideas outside of the BBC’s tight impartiality standards. As a result, the public will less investigate his salary.
I have been doing the Andrew Marr show every Sunday morning for 16 years now and that is probably more than enough time for anybody!
