    @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.

    @Ofcom Is this going to further reduce #Freeview's terrestrial service?

  • DavidLongbenton David Alexander (@DavidLongbenton) reported

    @irisfurnham @Jenny_1884 There'd still be freeview....==loads of other channels. People only using "Freeview" have to pay the BBC to watch "free" channels even if they never watch BBC, the system is corrupt.

    @ITVX hi any idea what is wrong with itvx freeview . Tried to watch something and it flashes a message saying the problem is your end

  • HorribleGrandma Dave Stott (@HorribleGrandma) reported

    @CountMoriarty @anon_opin A massive problem is also the decision to put BBC Three online-only. It was a hotbed of innovatio, and they took it away from young adults with a freeview box.
