@stephenkb @colinelves There’s a technical issue with existing Freeview (DVB-T2 as rolled out in the UK) equipment being used for content access. It’s impractical to turn conventional TV into pay TV. So it will have to be free to air plus top up TV via streaming and/or another box.

@landeleanor People cant afford the Internet at the moment. I already said changing the cost of anything is beyond my abilities much like yours . I'm sure freeview is still available without the need for the internet maybe it could be done that way. Do you have a solution?

@andymhamilton Is one of the ideas. Need Freeview to do encryption, probably will do in 2027. Hope it is subscription, think Beeb has something to offer, just slimmed down. Sell most radio off would help.

@jamiebglover It’s not just about all the BBC channels though, wonderful as they are. The licence fee also maintains the Freeview and radio network on which commercial TV and radio stations depend. The argument to defund the BBC will hurt far more than the BBC.

@RussInCheshire These set of stats don't even cover that the licence fee pays in to support the infrastructure to deliver the "other channels" including broadband roll-outs as well as being a founding force behind Freeview. #SaveOurBBC

@TomSwarbrick1 There are no good alternatives to the BBC licence fee. Will BBC TV be taken off Freeview and put behind a paywall? My grandparents couldn’t work a streaming service? Does Global want to compete for advertising revenue with a commercial BBC radio network? Bonkers!

@SteB777 @GeorgeMonbiot Thinking: without the licence fee, every pensioner will have to buy a subscription service - it will completely undermine the freeview concept. Or we will be left watching ITV and Channel 4 - if that survives… Then as many point out, radio… Not an easy decision for the wise…

@John__Northants @LucyMPowell maintenance of the Freeview transmitters and even help the security services via BBC Monitoring? Talk Radio? 🙄

@SamPEAK1951 @NadineDorries The principle is people shouldn't be forced to pay for something they don't want, need or support. Yes, we all pay for essential services that some may not use but that's not the same as a TV broadcaster. If they are so good go subscription only and come off Freeview
