Care to answer the points I raised in respect of all other forms of Government funded businesses / organisations/ as I mentioned earlier - all of which do indeed have bearing...........

I have replied to your points pyra, they had relevance and were on topic.
Why you want me to into chapter and verse about other forms of government funded organisations I don't know...I stated the BBC already do have privately funded programming.
In conclusion...I don't agree with the licence fee. I don't think the quality of programming is superior to commercial stations, and I don't believe they are impartial as some feel a publicly owned station should be.
