BBC TV licence fee is to rise by £5.50 to £180

£180 per year for pure propaganda

UK MP Lee Anderson said: 'The BBC has a death wish.

He told the Daily Mail: 'With families facing soaring bills and taxes, it is
indefensible to demand more money for an institutionally biased BBC. Reform
UK would overhaul a national broadcaster that is clearly unsustainable in its
current form.'

Senior Conservative MP Nigel Huddleston, the shadow culture secretary, added:
'It is increasingly difficult to see how the BBC can justify any rise in the licence
fee when serious questions remain over its impartiality and governance.'

[bots]

it's a rise of 3%, so less than inflation

The BBC know this is the Wrong Format



The Labour Government should take over their
Money input.

Making it come from Tax. Etc.


Would be far better

One of the few who never went to Epstein Island, but who did the BBC choose for the picture?

Pure Propaganda

If you think it’s propaganda, stop watching it and stop paying. The licence fee only exists if you choose to use the service.

You would think, but they try to pretend you need it for stuff like netflix..

I occasionally watch tv but I won’t pay the bbc because they put utter rubbish on tv

Sadly the organisation has been infected terminally by left wing activists

Its a real shame

Unrivalled news coverage, fantastic array of live radio shows and podcasts, brilliant dramas, sitcoms, panel shows and reality TV, and a major instrument of British soft power around the world

Great value for money 👍

Funny how everything becomes left-wing activism if you don’t agree with it.

Just stick to your right wing outrage culture establishments LT.

No one is forcing you to watch the BBC

More than 300,000 households stopped paying the licence fee in 2024. That year, the BBC
lost more than £1bn from licence fee evasion and cancellation.

Overall, 3.6 million people now say they do not have a licence because they do not need
one, according to a report by the public accounts committee. One in eight users now
evade payment despite using the BBC’s services.

Catching people has gone down because people won’t open their doors to the scum bags

The Traitors is an exception imo, arguably Strictly too.
