Employees at Global Media, which owns LBC and other stations including Capital Radio and Heart, had raised concerns in recent days about the difference between the company’s rhetoric on race and its actions.

Messages passed to the Guardian show Yinka Bokinni and Shayna Marie Birch-Campbell, the hosts of the CapitalXtra breakfast show, expressing their exasperation with the company’s response: “As black women in the public eye and forward-facing representatives of this company who are actively speaking out against white privilege and fighting for change, we currently don’t feel like we have the backing of the place we call home.”

There has also been substantial attention on the make-up of the Global Media board of directors and calls for its founder, Ashley Tabor-King, to do more to live up to his internal comments.
