However, whether the Government are trying to deliver capital to the sector or mending a diplomatic fence, in doing so they are parlaying foreign influence. Whatever the side deals, those are not worth the cost of press freedom. There has also been a wider debate about the ownership of the Daily Telegraph. I will not detail these concerns, as I am sure that others in this debate will. I just note that there are calls, which I support, to launch a full investigation into the sources of funds behind RedBird’s bid and to assess its scope for influence.
