Wealthier might have to pay more for BBC, says ex-chairman Richard Sharp
Speaking to the Chopper's Politics podcast, Mr Sharp said he would be in favour of a "form of mandatory payment" like the licence fee, but highlighted some issues he had with it.
Describing the licence fee as "imperfect", he said the focus should be on whether there is a "better system" and what disruption would be caused by changing the current one. "This is a debate for Parliament," he told the Telegraph. "Beyond that, it is right there is a debate on whether, and if, the licence fee needs to evolve. We will continue to work hard to serve all audiences."Discussing his successor, Mr Sharp said they could be a Conservative party donor, adding: "I don't think the fact that I had donated to the party, and I think the last party donation was in 2010, should have disqualified me."
