Speaking on a panel for the British Society of Magazine Editors less than a week ago, Nelson said the relationship between editor and proprietor should be "no relationship at all". "The editor is backed or sacked but never second guessed, never steered," he said, adding that Marshall "obviously likes us, he paid £100m for us – but I should be having no contact with him. In the same way I had no contact with the Barclays when they owned The Spectator. I think in 15 years they spoke to me about ten times." Nelson added that editors should "actively ignore" suggestions from proprietors and that: "If you get sacked for it, you get sacked for it – but you hold the line. Famous last words."
