I stopped paying my TV licence over 2 years ago … no regrets. Won’t be going back … unless the BBC really has a Management change that reflects intelligence and representation, and stops supporting Globalist and BLM fascism and forced immigration destroying British culture … and the cultures of many other Countries too … something Gary Lineker needs to really think about … before he advocates taking a knee to anarchists.
When I stopped paying for content, it made me look around … and become my own editor and programme controller. I am happy just streaming the odd program from apps through a Google Chromecast … loads of great documentary content … on Youtube … even the odd free film.
As you mature, you realise how much the TV induces dementia in your relatives who can’t switch off the Deep State programming and the brain-rot garbage.
The BBC and other Western broadcasters have subliminally taken their stupid anti-white racism and forced immigration agendas to a new level … It’s interesting to note the EU has been running a covert Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan that is pushed through every fibre of EU Policy … since it evolved out of the duplicity of the Common Market.
No English-speaking TV station will discuss the Kalergi Plan …. because it is covert social engineering EUGENICS bullied on Europeans …
It promotes anarchic BLM Colonialism … at a time their MSM and the Guardian (the BBC Bible) tries to brainwash us Colonialism was ALL BAD … and needs defunding.
… V. Weird that Zionists are now promoting it?… as they turn their screws becoming the Censors of today … in order to become the new Slave owners of tomorrow …
They label those who protest as “anti-Semitic”. - That old chestnut! <<Yawn>> …. How many atrocities have Fascist Religions got away with … playing that racist card? 🙄🤔
The Islington BBC knows full well what it is doing here … but does Gary Lineker know he is an unwitting supporter of this ‘fascism’ wrapped up in the Kalergi Programme? …
Lineker’s naivety is staggering … but London and the World is full of these people following ideas that came out of a Mossad Mein Kampf….. the EU for instance.

TV Licence scheduled to rise by 8% next year - will now cost £172. Value for money? Bargain. Worth it for The Archers alone. |

I paid my BBC TV licence last November, you will of course call me a wanker, fair enough. I pay by cheque because it's inconvenient and more expensive for them, and I always ignore the first reminder. So they have to send me a second letter, which is nice because it increases their costs. And of course the first cheque is never correct, there's always an error usually the date  The bottom line is, yes I eventually pay the BBC TV licence fee, but they have to work for it. |

OMG, I used to have an OC (Major) who would litterally stop an excercise while he listened to the Archers, this was in Germany. I know how stupid that sounds but it's the truth. It used to drive us up the wall, but he was the OC. |

Their costs are your costs. It's your fault the fee is increasing. |

This is how they piss your licence money against the wall Red...If it is rewritten, it's no longer Dickens, is it? So why call it Dickens' Great Expectations? Lunacy.
Now BBC rewrites DICKENS to make British Empire more objectionable in new TV adaptation of Great Expectations staring Olivia Colman
The BBC has injected a strong anti-colonial message into its adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic novel Great Expectations, it has been revealed.
The new show stars multiple-Oscar-winning British actress Olivia Colman as the terrifying Miss Havisham and Ffion Whitehead as orphan Pip
Written by Peaky Blinders creator Stephen Knight, the beloved novel has been given a new twist, referencing the evils of Empire which were not present in the original Victorian book.
In one scene, criminal Magwitch, one of the central characters, describes the British Empire as having been 'built on the lies of privileged white men', The Telegraph reports.

Their costs are your costs. It's your fault the fee is increasing. I don't care. You have no idea how many letters and emails I have written to various politicians about this. If you think the BBC is fantastic, you pay for it by subscription. The reason the BBC are terrified of subscription is because the BBC would die. The BBC is kept alive by force, I am forced by law to pay the BBC for the privilage of watching ITV. |

Jonksy, this is why I don't watch the BBC, to be honest I dont watch a lot of TV, yes I'm watching the six nations which I think is free to air until 2024. After that we'll watch in the pub or we wont watch it. It's not the end of the world. I could live without TV, I'm not sure Mrs R could, which may be bad for me, lol.

Sadly for him, his wife was having an affair and left him, after which his life went to ratshit. A common story. |

A TV Licence covers you to:
watch or record TV on any channel via any TV service (e.g. Sky, Virgin, Freeview, Freesat)
watch live on streaming services (e.g. ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Now, Sky Go)
use BBC iPlayer*.
As per the Communications Act 2003 and Communications (Television Licensing) Regulations 2004, those who install and watch a television are required to have a TV Licence and pay a fee for it. It is unlawful to watch, download or record programmes on any channel or on any platform if a valid TV Licence is not held.

But everyone knows that the vast majority of the money is used exclusively to fund the BBC. So in practice it is a de facto tax to fund the BBC regardless or not of whether you watch or listen to it. For those of us who have issues with the BBC, the right to choose not to fund it whilst still having access to non-BBC television or radio ought to be a fundamental right and legitimate choice. Many see the BBC as inherently biased. It is massively biased towards the left when it comes to identity politics issues, yet seriously biased towards the right when it comes to the economic consensus. For these reasons both left and right do not see it as impartial. It is mostly Blairites such as yourself who are blind to it's bias, because you share the same biases. |

Please do not insult my intelligence with your ill informed opinion of me. Can you give a positive example of the sort innate BBC bias you point to, in recent years? Other programmes such as ITV are owned by families and or investors, do you believe that other program producers are without any bias? Do you have any comparisons of bias between ITV and BBC or of any other producers of TV programmes? It appears to be the case that the license is imposed by the government. The license, originally a radio license, was introduced in November 1923 by the Wireless Telegraphy Act 1923 and cost 10 shillings per annum. The license was extended to televisions at a cost of £2 in June 1946. The radio part was abolished in February 1971. I am no expert on the level of bias of any of the owners of any TV product, are you? But I suspect the BBC is a more reliable way of producing political reasonableness including having a live on TV complaints program. You might wish to use it by just writing in and complaining sometime? |
