After it was reported that the BBC director general was at Glastonbury when Bob Vylan chanted “death, death to the IDF” and was personally consulted over what to do about the performance, there have been calls for him to resign.

Tim Davie was told of the chant soon after it had been made and ruled that the rap duo’s set should not be made available to watch on demand.

However, the chant remained on BBC iPlayer for another five hours.

This week, we asked readers: Should Tim Davie resign over the Glastonbury hate chant?

A large proportion, 87 per cent, of 65,000 respondents said yes.
