@BillboBilleric1 @alr6872 @mrdanwalker You consume nothing at all that is funded from the BBC? Never watch or listen to them Never use their websites Never use broadband Don't use Freeview or Freesat. But even if true, yes I do, as a society we all have to fund things we don't use directly.

@gro_edu @COYR26 @DeborahMeaden Liar. Freeview is jointly owned by all the main broadcasters including Sky and the network is operated by another company.

@mrdanwalker Of the Freeview TV transmitter network. 4 months and only on January 5th did we get 9 out of the 220+ channels back, conveniently all BBC NO ITV/C4/C5 etc but it's the North East so expect the southern centric BBC not to be too fussed, you only cover the stories you wish so not

@AudsDisease @SkyNews Do you listen to the radio? Or perhaps watch Freeview? The BBC help maintain the Freeview network.

@cal_on_demand @kkbigk @OwenJones84 A marginal market at most. What about educational TV? Minority output like Welsh language programmes? Who would finance the freeview transmitters maintenance? Local news? Non-commerical radio? BBC website? World Service?

@RevRichardColes Richard, August 10th in Teesside we lost Freeview signal due to a transmitter fire, we only got our signal back from a temporary transmitter but even then only limited channels all BBC & nothing else no ITV/C4/C5 ie not much choice. During the 4 months of no FREEVIEW most people

@AudsDisease @SkyNews What about Freeview channels? The license fee also goes to maintaining the Freeview network

Receiving any channels. They pick on the weak and less informed. Investigate that issue and the fact we have only a bit part service here in Teesside (depending on which bit of Teesside you live in) for example we ONLY get 9 BBC channels no ITV/C4/C5 and others via Freeview

@UKSpunkyMonkey @JustMark33 @GaryLineker Yes, that's because the BBC is non-excludable. Sky can turn your signal off very easily and do it all the time. How would the BBC stop you from listening to BBC Radio? Also most of the TV is on Freeview. I'm hearing lots of over-simplistic reasoning in this thread.
