has told 10 of its most seasoned news anchors that they have lost their prestige presenting roles on the broadcaster’s rolling news channel.

Annita McVeigh, Geeta Guru-Murthy, and Shaun Ley are also among the unlucky presenters. Along with Croxall and Brown, they spend the majority of their time fronting the UK channel. Sources said the majority of the jobs had gone to BBC World News anchors rather than UK presenters, with one person describing it as a “de facto closure” of the UK channel. “The new service will be a version of World News by any other name,” a second person said.
