    @d0hertyry4n @wilsonfromnorth @NadineDorries What’s that got to do with educational resources every school/college use, maintaining Freeview transmitters so the elderly/poor have access to TV, having programming that is made for the disabled community? These things aren’t made by anyone else because they’re not profitable.

    @MrTrevMcCarthy @DaveHogg2 @LeeJBBC I don't need the BBC if I break my leg. We generally all go to school - some pay twice if they go private. Freeview exists. How on Earth can you comment about an affordable service - how many other countries force payment to turn on your TV?

    I'd feel a lot more positive about the @BBC if it sorted out its @Freeview signal here so that it doesn't become unwatchable when it gets a bit hot. And no @FreeviewAdvice it's not about retuning sets, it's about transmitting on part of the band the transmitter is optimised for.

    @PaulM30033923 @Radioheady2021 @NadineDorries Guess you don’t watch a single BBC televison show, radio programme, or BBC funded film or read any BBC website or make use of the Freeview transmitter network?

  • steviexdavis stevied (@steviexdavis) reported

    @GBNEWS Needs to be. It's a disgrace we pay a licence fee not to watch the BBC but to watch all the other Freeview Channels. I never watch the BBC, so cancelled licence, now I Can't watch all the other channels.

  • MikeAyriss Mike Ayriss (@MikeAyriss) reported

    @PCarmichaelVO @PumaBare A review of funding could, for example look at maintaining Freeview network by all broadcasters that use it paying a fee. Incidentally, how much should the BBC be providing? It's channels have proliferated. Personally, I don't mind the licence fee but I'd support a full review.

    @rach0907 @LlamaBusiness Virgin's dreadful for price hikes alongside declining service. Scrapped it all when we moved, can get everything we want on Freeview/Prime/Netflix/iPlayer. Then got a Humax box so we can record stuff if we want to. EE's internet is brilliant for the price too

  • mergwaines al 🌻 hbd cait! (@mergwaines) reported

    @jedijackles This will also mean the loss of a bunch of freeview channels that you get access to by buying a tv license and getting freeview with it, because they can’t be privatised in the same way, so that would also be really bad for the arts and culture sector :(

  • DeusFoxy Post Brexit Foxy 🦊 (@DeusFoxy) reported

    @PCarmichaelVO @NadineDorries Because they'd still be state-owned and under a PSB. And those niche audiences will still get the ad-funded skeleton Freeview service, and ad-funded catch-up on iPlayer.

  • RainbowChazer Music is my first love. And it will be my last. (@RainbowChazer) reported

    If the govt wants costs to be paid for pensioners and the unemployed, put it in general taxation. So most people will still have to pay for it, but won't be able to moan about it being poor value for money. Also would preserve Freeview and radio, which are apparently popular.
