    @stephenashman13 @RevRichardColes @SteveBreave If you don't consume over the air broadcasts then you don't have to pay for it. That includes Freeview, FreeSat. You could watch maybe 60% online (a guess), but it would be a pretty horrible experience.

    @Michael37822549 @ChrisMousse3 @JuliaHB1 So you're happy paying a licence fee if it gets spent on other things than just the BBC? What about the support of the Freeview network that allows free-to-air TV to he broadcast. Or the broadband roll-out. Or SC4? That's not a Welsh language station.

  • theninetyninep1 theninetyninepercent (@theninetyninep1) reported

    @cononeilluk @luckyma_man .. many won't have + a subscription fee of min £7/ month. Oh + probably have to invest in smart TV or Freeview Play Box, oh + have to navigate through all those new menus. I wonder if Nadine will be providing a free helpline to help all those elderly ppl navigate the Technology

  • pwatson1974 Paul Watson (@pwatson1974) reported

    @Lifeson90 @greg_jenner So what’s the better alternative that keeps all the non-subscription friendly services like Freeview or the transmitter network?

  • MattSnarky Meh.. (@MattSnarky) reported

    @Scrumpydude1 @jamiebglover How do you think the broadcast network that Freeview runs on gets paid for? All those transmitters that still need to be operated and maintained?

  • barongreenbacks Tim Binsley #JohnsonOut (@barongreenbacks) reported

    Secondly, that ‘expensive’ licence fee does so much more than fund the BBC. It also part funds C4, it maintains the freeview network and the radio broadcast network, meaning that that £159/year or £13.25/month is doing a hell of a lot of work.

  • pjtobin00 Paddy (@pjtobin00) reported

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

  • no2jericholane No Jericho Lane Dual Carriageway (@no2jericholane) reported

    @ben_pullan @RevRichardColes You don’t listen to BBC radio? You never visited BBC online? You never used other services like Freeview that the license fee also contributes towards?

  • Atkinson2Emma Emma Atkinson (@Atkinson2Emma) reported

    @MartinSLewis Alternatives to the TV licence were looked at a few years ago. I was told Freeview will shut down in a few years. How would we handle a COVID outbreak without a national broadcaster and only Internet/Cable subs? What happens to the stuff BBC runs under the hood?

  • Truth_Aint_Real The_Truth_Doesnt_Matter (@Truth_Aint_Real) reported

    @PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries And there lies the problem, very few people speak Welsh/Gaelic and yet millions is poured into it, not value for money. It's not freeview if we are paying a licence fee for it.
