Why - is he an idiot?
Almost as dumb as that nonsense a few weeks back when someone questioned whether Bill had to bother turning up because he was supposedly freelance to.
We are not privy to their contract details but whether employed directly by the BBC or contracted by the BBC to provide their services it is quite irrelevant and a change in circumstances simply leads to the necessary changes in contract, and unless it really isn't convenient for your personal circumstances a "promotion" which basically sees you do the same job on different days for possibly a greater financial reward isn'the going to be turned down.
Very unfair comments I would suggest.
Personal circumstances may play an awful lot in considering such a role, given that it would involve either moving home or long distance commuting.
Suggesting that someone would be an "idiot" for not taking the role is really over the top.
A sense of perspective is needed.
Also would Jon Kay want to give up his reporting role as the West of England correspondent for a full time presenting role. It will depend which he prefers.
