Lauraâs resignation comes just weeks after she apologised to the people of Grenada for her familyâs links to slavery.
From next week, five journalists will take up Chief Presenter roles, including Matthew Amroliwala, Yalda Hakim, Christian Fraser, Lucy Hockings, and Maryam Moshiri.
A further 10 UK-based presenters were unsuccessful in applying for these roles, and Deadline hears that many have dropped off BBC Newsâ hosting rota, meaning they have no shifts in April.
Those who did not land a Chief Presenter role include Ben Brown, Martine Croxall, Geeta Guru-Murthy, Shaun Ley, and Annita McVeigh.
A number of presenters are considering their future at the BBC, while others are in talks over Correspondent roles, which will include studio presenting duties.

Interesting. Commentary on Twitter is that the launch in two hours will be a bit of an overhaul. It seems the globe will be refreshed.
