Default Poor People should get a Free TV Licence

These are families that can not afford Internet
If you are that poor
the TV tax should be free.


They use Food Banks.


And that Loss of the Tax can be taken from
High Earners.

TV license shouldn't exist at all but yes I agree, if it must exist, it should be free for those on low income.

We scrapped live telly years ago, went back for a bit with a 2 year Sky deal, utter garbage so we got rid again as soon as the 2 year contract was finished. Don't miss it at all.

the situation wont change until the charter is renewed and i hope the licence is ditched then, but realistically, it wont be dumped it will just transform into something else

It has some decent shows but nothing you can't get elsewhere on streaming platforms .

Only time I miss Sky+ is when Love Island is on, because ITV Hub is sometimes a bit crap.
