    @Alexand85266011 @femme_uk @GBNEWS Freeview isn't very reliable for me either. I'm only 10 miles [as the crow flies] from the South Yorkshire Transmitter, yet I can only receive 6 of the 15 HD channels available. BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5 and CBBC. The signal quality/strength is on average 80%.

    @bowlestrek Get your facts straight. Johnson is not in favour of ditching the license fee, as he knows it’s a massive vote loser. Plus they’ve now realised, they can’t go to subscription fee system, as the freeview boxes that the majority of UK households use, don’t support it.

  • angelpagecdlmhq Angel Page. Socials at @angelpagecdlmhq 💕✨ (@angelpagecdlmhq) reported

    It’s everywhere you look, certain groups are pissy because they have to share with the rest of the world, and are no longer pandered to and catered to exclusively. That’s why you have this hate-fuelled pushback. The Red Button and Freeview are RIGHT THERE, but it’s never enough…

  • FortesMentum Sir Henry @ Ed Debba (@FortesMentum) reported

    @RupertLowe10 The trouble is, sir, that jail beckons for ordinary people who choose not to pay the TV license but continue to watch Freeview.

    @RUTH_S_H Do you need me to find you a poor person who knows how to find Freeview?
