BBC’s Carrie Gracie resigns post over ‘unlawful pay discrimination’

Not just reading the headlines but making them too: one of the BBC’s leading journalists has resigned her post as China editor, saying she couldn’t knowingly collude in what she considered “unlawful pay discrimination”. Carrie Gracie’s very public stand over pay inequality has won her the support of many colleagues, who said they knew of up to 200 women at the BBC who’d made pay complaints too.
