Well, well, well! Samira's won, and the BBC's lost. She is worth as much as Jeremy Vine!
Presenter Samira Ahmed wins BBC equal pay tribunal https://t.co/99EBwdhdpr— BBC News (UK) (@BBCNews) January 10, 2020
I'm presuming she'll be awarded the £700,000 in back pay she says the BBC owes her (doutbless paid by licence fee payers). Will she give it all to charity, like Carrie Gracie?
As we were discussing here the other day, Samira Ahmed is freelance. It says so on her LinkedIn page. The BBC report, however, quotes her saying, "No woman wants to have to take action against their own employer. I love working for the BBC."
It might be all very simple, but it seems confusing to me. Does she work for the BBC or just do work for the BBC?
