Starmer offers BBC rivals chance to join forces
Sir Keir Starmer has opened the door to mergers between the BBC's commercial rivals as they come under mounting pressure from streaming. The Government on Monday set out plans to remove barriers to allow broadcasters such as ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 to join forces as part of its new Industrial Strategy. Ministers said they would examine 'possible consolidation between broadcasters which may benefit their financial sustainability and audiences', as well as 'closer strategic partnerships'. The Competition and Markets Authority and Ofcom will be asked to review their definitions of the TV and advertising markets to include, for instance, YouTube and Netflix. Such moves would reduce the market share of broadcasters, making it much more likely that regulators could approve a merger of their advertising sales operations, or even an ITV takeover of Channel 5 and Channel 4. 'Economies of scale' Investors and television industry leaders are increasingly arguing for such consolidation to cut costs as audiences and advertisers migrate to streamers. Less radical steps are already being taken in that direction. ITV, Channel 4 and Sky last week struck a deal to pool their online advertising spots to mount a stronger challenge to the massive scale of YouTube. The three broadcasters currently each operate their own television advertising sales house. Bringing them together would be an obvious next step, but would require regulators to agree that streaming competition means it would not be too powerful a monopoly. The Government pointed to broadcasters in other countries pursuing mergers to 'increase economies of scale'. It added: 'We must take active steps to ensure our domestic broadcasters can adapt to this changing market, and continue their support for independent producers of all sizes so that IP [intellectual property] remains in the UK. 'The financial sustainability of our PSBs [public service broadcasters] is under pressure as they compete for content and advertising revenues with global media and technology companies.' TV troubles It comes as ITV is locked in discussions over a deal that could result in either a sale of the broadcaster or a deal to spin off its lucrative production business. Banijay, the French production powerhouse behind Big Brother and Peaky Blinders, has reportedly held discussions with ITV over a potential bid. All3Media, the UAE-owned group behind shows including The Traitors and Race Across the World, has also been linked to a possible deal. ITV, which has struggled with an advertising downturn in recent years, has been viewed as ripe for a break-up as a sharp decline in its share price has pushed its valuation to just £3bn, down from a peak of more than £11bn in 2015.

Tottenham chief 'placed on gardening leave' as summer shake-up continues after Ange Postecoglou's sacking and Thomas Frank's appointment
Tottenham 's chief football officer has reportedly been placed on gardening leave amid a summer of upheaval at the club. The Europa League champions sacked Ange Postecoglou earlier this month despite the Australian leading Spurs to their first trophy in 17 years in Bilbao. Postecoglou had been dismissed exactly two years to the day he was hired, with Tottenham's board highlighting their dismal domestic campaign as key to their decision. Thomas Frank was named as Postecoglou's successor as head coach, with chairman Daniel Levy and chief executive Vinai Venkatesham speaking publicly on the decision to appoint the former Brentford boss. Venkatesham has officially begun his role this summer with the former Arsenal executive joining a Tottenham board which had lost Daniel Levy's 'right-hand woman' Donna-Maria Cullen, who left the club after 20 years. The summer of change has continued with Football London reporting Tottenham's chief football officer Scott Munn has been placed on gardening leave ahead of his departure. Munn arrived from the City Football Group's Chinese branch in 2023, joining the same year as Postecoglou. He was appointed the Chief Executive Officer of City Football Group in China back in 2019 and had previously worked for nine years with A-League side Melbourne City FC as their Chief Executive Officer. The Australian also had extensive experience working outside of football, starting his career within the Sydney Organising Committee for the 2000 Olympic Games, before moving to work with the National Rugby League and the Australian Football League. The 51-year-old has been a background figure, charged with shaking up and streamlining various departments. He led the review that ended with the exit of long-serving head of medicine Geoff Scott last year, but Tottenham's injuries only worsened last season. Postecoglou had been forced to make do without many of his first team regulars after an unprecedented injury crisis which has particularly hit his defensive line. Munn's name had been notably absent when Frank spoke about Tottenham's structure when spoke for the first time as the new head coach last week, with the Dane referencing Levy, Venkatesham and technical director Johan Lange. 'I had very good conversations and meetings with (Daniel Levy, Vinai Venkatesham, and Johan Lange) where we discussed everything in depth - details about the Club structure, processes - and of course I came with my views on things, how I saw it, my ideas, and the way I want to do things and how I try to build a team and a club,' Frank said. Former managing director of football Fabio Paratici has also been tipped to return to the club 'Of course, it's not just me. I think it's very important to say: yes, the Head Coach is an important person, but if I don't have good people around me, it's impossible. You can't do anything alone, in my opinion. 'If you want to do something quick, you can go alone. If you want to do something big or achieve something big, you go together. So, it's definitely about doing things together - me, the staff, the players. 'I think alignment is key - from top to bottom. Of course it starts from Daniel, Vinai, Johan, and me - and the more the four of us can be aligned, just like a unit, an unbreakable unit, the stronger we'll be.' Former managing director of football Fabio Paratici has also been tipped to return to Tottenham this summer, with his worldwide football ban due to expire on July 20. Paratici had left the club in 2023 after an appeal against a two-and-a-half-year FIFA ban for alleged financial irregularities dating back to his spell at Juventus was rejected. The Italian has helped Tottenham on a consultancy basis, after parts of his ban had been lifted by FIFA. According to the Telegraph, Paratici's consultancy contract will run until the end of the summer transfer window.

Welfare reforms will lead to ‘appalling poverty'
The Government has faced further criticism from its backbenchers over its proposed cuts to disability benefits, with one MP suggesting they will lead to 'appalling poverty'. Labour MP Andy McDonald asked for further evidence on how many people will lose out on Personal Independence Payments (Pip) as a result of the welfare reform Bill. In the Commons, Labour's Richard Burgon also claimed anyone supporting the reforms is voting to take away benefits from disabled people who need help 'to cut up their food, wash themselves and go to the toilet'. Work and pensions minister Sir Stephen Timms said the reforms will 'open up opportunities for people who have been denied opportunities for far, far too long'. It comes after Labour's Vicky Foxcroft resigned as a Government whip over the proposed cuts last week. The Government has previously said the reforms could save up to £5 billion a year. The Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill will be debated on July 1, when it receives its second reading in the Commons. Speaking on Monday, Mr Burgon, Leeds East MP, said: 'Isn't the simple and sad truth that any MP who votes for this upcoming welfare Bill is voting to take Pip from disabled people who need assistance to cut up their food, wash themselves and go to the toilet?' Sir Stephen replied: 'No. What people will be voting for is reforms to open up opportunities for people who have been denied opportunities for far, far too long. We're putting that right.' Mr McDonald, MP for Middlesbrough and Thornaby East, said: 'Ministers have highlighted the scale of Pip recipients expected to lose payments make up one in 10 of the total Pip caseload, suggesting the impact of the cuts will be limited, but that's still 370,000 current recipients expected to lose on average, £4,500. 'But these numbers rest on a set of assumptions that the OBR has described as highly uncertain. DWP data shows there are 1.3 million people currently receiving Pip daily living payments who would not meet the new criteria. 'So before MPs are asked to vote on imposing such appalling poverty, will the DWP or the OBR provide further evidence underpinning these claims?' Sir Stephen replied: 'Well, the OBR has published its assessment. (Mr McDonald) is absolutely right, their assessment is that one in 10 of those who are receiving Pip in November next year will have lost it by 2029/30.' He added: 'Following that, we will be able to introduce the biggest investment there has ever been in employment support for people out of work on health and disability grounds, because we don't want any longer to track people on low income for years and years and years, we want people to be able to enter work and fulfil their ambitions, and that's what the investment will allow.' Pip is a benefit aimed at helping with extra living costs if someone has a long-term physical or mental health condition or disability and difficulty doing certain everyday tasks or getting around because of their condition. Data for Pip claimants begins in January 2019, when the number stood at 2.05 million. An impact assessment published alongside the Bill confirmed previously published estimates that changes to Pip entitlement rules could see about 800,000 people lose out, with an average loss of £4,500 per year. Shadow work and pensions secretary Helen Whately said the reforms will get 'a grand total of zero people into work, according to their own impact assessments'. Elsewhere in work and pensions questions, Ms Kendall said the child poverty task force will look at 'all the levers that we need' to tackle the issue, when pressed on the Government's plans for the two-child benefit cap. Tracy Gilbert, Labour MP for Edinburgh North and Leith, said: 'I absolutely agree… with a number of charities that removing the cap alone is not a silver bullet to tackle child poverty, but it will make a difference. 'Can (Ms Kendall) confirm if the tackling child poverty task force is considering the removal of a two-child cap?' Ms Kendall replied: 'I can absolutely confirm that the child poverty strategy will be looking at all the levers that we need to tackle this really important issue, including in terms of social security. 'She is impatient for change for her constituents, as am I. We have already put in place a fair repayment rate for universal credit, we are increasing the standard allowance for the first time in universal credit, for the first time in its history, and rolling out free school meals. 'But I will, of course, take her representations forward and make sure they're heard by the task force.'
