    @Cyanosis1966 @BATC_London @DPJHodges 1) How do you (technically) have a subscription service that doesn’t require a set top box/internet connectivity? 18m people use Freeview, & 1.8m households have no internet access 3) If you need to pay £20/month to Sky/Virgin to access it, it is more expensive than a licence fee

  • skyblue_England skyblue_england ⬅︎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 (@skyblue_England) reported

    @mrdanwalker @GaryLineker It’s time to end the license fee and allow viewers freedom of choice. With the plethora of subscription and Freeview program providers, it’s no longer necessary to have a government sponsored public service provider, with all the inherent issues about partiality that it brings.

    @JosephScotland @OlafStar @TiceRichard Optional if you NEVER watch any live t.v on any device that includes YouTube Amazon Freeview Channel4 More4 And more Not very "optional" is it It's a tax to watch the telly plain and simple and is now outdated

  • AlexTheGuiri Alex the Guiri (@AlexTheGuiri) reported

    @Glostermeteor @MattWWoolwich Nope. The BBC was given a significant uplift in the licence fee to implement Freeview in the early 2010s. It was then allowed to keep that uplift to fund the World Service (previously FCO) and ‘free’ licences for over 75s (previously HMT). Typically it has subsequently reneged.

    @JeremyVineOn5 No. They provide the Freeview network, are there to inform us in an unbiased way without undue influence from vested interests. Rupert Murdoch could never do that nor any of his successors.

  • PaulCarmichaelV Paul Carmichael (@PaulCarmichaelV) reported

    @SZgoesCrazy @BBCBreaking I think that programming for disabled people, educational resources for children, maintaining the Freeview transmitter service for the poor and elderly is all worthwhile. You apparently don’t. We can agree to disagree.

    @B2theRich It was dreadful. Three out of five is extremely generous. It's the type of terrible b-movie you see on a random Freeview channel at 2pm in the afternoon.

    @AceGerry @ShimonaGordon You need to be covered by a TV Licence if you watch live on any channel, TV service or streaming service - such as ITVX, All 4, YouTube, Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview

    @markaizatt Sadly if you are a freeview user and not a customer of the likes of BT/SKY/Virgin et al, Al Jazeera is the only channel with a global perspective for the lazy of seeking
