    @theninetyninep1 @cononeilluk @luckyma_man Only problem with that argument is you assume elderly people ONLY watch bbc, itv, ch4, ch5.. I know many where I live in the peak park (where terrestrial reception is poor , even freeview is difficult ) who already subscribe to sky some even have Netflix ..so it’s nothing new

  • JustTransitionW Just Transition Wakefield (@JustTransitionW) reported

    @SteB777 @GeorgeMonbiot Thinking: without the licence fee, every pensioner will have to buy a subscription service - it will completely undermine the freeview concept. Or we will be left watching ITV and Channel 4 - if that survives… Then as many point out, radio… Not an easy decision for the wise…

    @Glostermeteor @stephenkb I’m sure their grand plan isn’t to turn off the signal, but to make it encoded and subject to subscription. But most freeview boxes that people only now have after a long and expensive campaign of digital switchover that was really only about selling bandwidth to mobile operators

    @Garysonfire BBC Licence fee also go toward support for the Freeview network infrastructure

  • BillboBilleric1 BillboBillericay (@BillboBilleric1) reported

    @JuliaHB1 The BBC is not a public service and therefore should not be funded through a form of taxation. 80 plus channels available on Freeview that are not funded by the taxpayer, but I am not allowed to watch them unless I pay the BBC tax.

    @jamiebglover It’s not just about all the BBC channels though, wonderful as they are. The licence fee also maintains the Freeview and radio network on which commercial TV and radio stations depend. The argument to defund the BBC will hurt far more than the BBC.

  • VinnieVonStarr1 Vinnie Von Starr (@VinnieVonStarr1) reported

    @1neilhallam @RussInCheshire They are prevented from watching them if they can't pay. What if all she has is a freeview TV with no facilities to play on-demand? Noone should be denied access to such a basic thing in the 21st century. Why do you support an extra tax that can easily be abolished?

  • lewismj_waioeka Michael Lewis (@lewismj_waioeka) reported

    @EdwardJDavey @Aiannucci If the BBC is great, it will have no trouble getting subscribers, what are you afraid of? Why force say pensioners or the poor to pay a regressive tax? They may be happy with FreeView, why should they be forced into paying for the BBC if they don't want it?

  • ChrisLew300 🅲🅷🆁🅸🆂 (@ChrisLew300) reported

    @jamiebglover When ITV had the DVB franchise, OnDigital they charged a subscription fee to use it. When it failed the BBC took it over and GAVE us Freeview and they continue to maintain the transmitter network. This also allowed the government to sell off the analog frequencues for mobiles.

    @John__Northants @LucyMPowell maintenance of the Freeview transmitters and even help the security services via BBC Monitoring? Talk Radio? 🙄
