He should never have been in the Sky boardroom in the first place. He just isn't has dad - doesn't have the same judgement or skill. IMO the debacle of the removal of the Sky Basics from Virgin Media was down to his attempts to overplay his hand. When the dust finally settled, VM had by far the better deal and it was forever established that Sky needs carriage on other platforms more than other platforms need to carry Sky, thereby nobbling all future negotiations from Sky's point of view.
Sky as a business will be better off without him, and the wider British broadcast media will be better off without his constant whinging about our system of regulation and licencing.
