David Carroll (@DavidCarrollIr1) reportedI got to hear a very good service on SBN this morning (late night in the USA), about the Antichrist and when he will be arising. I am now thinking that it is after the rapture. Those of you seeking God would do well to watch SBN on Freeview 94 or elsewhere in the USA.

Mr. Rodi Kyriakou (@MrKyriakou) reported@AthleticsWeekly The games not on Freeview or free to air. Is it's demise. If this carries on. Major sporting events will die it's slow death. No one will bother that really matters 😔.

IronWorks1990 (@IronWorks1990) reported@dskiuk2 @Danrocsky76 @cordbusters I went Paris last year and our tv where we stayed was through through aerial, 50 odd channels and every single one of the was HD. Freeview now is terrible in 2026, full of shovelware channels and hardly any HD channels, SD channels look awful as well.

Winston Marshall (@MrWinMarshall) reportedDystopian. The UK gov paper for alternative and social media censorship in the name of protecting “trustworthy” news platforms makes for chilling reading. Lisa Nandy’s Dep for culture, media and sport’s censorial propositions are yet another attempt to protect the establishment from the people. Read it for yourself - “People are increasingly accessing news online, rather than through more regulated spaces like Freeview on their TV sets. This is weakening the ability of trustworthy news providers to reach audiences and shape informed public debate.” The word “trustworthy” here is Orwellian. They mean by it news acceptable to the regime. Mainstream media is not trustworthy in the eyes of the public, for good reason. “Overall trust in UK news has dropped, and only 45% of adults feel confident judging whether a source is truthful. This rise in untrustworthy news and corresponding decline in trust in news pose a risk to the public’s ability to access accurate information.” This is the fault of mainstream media. They have been blatantly biased for decades. The response to the rise in alternative media is for MSM to try and become more truthful, less biased, and honest to the public AND THEMSELVES about their bias. And certainly NOT to censor or throttle alternative media. “[Social media] makes it more difficult for trustworthy news providers to find, maintain and monetise an audience, with repercussions for the commercial viability of public interest journalism.” I.e. regime interest journalism If mainstream media is to be saved it needs to drastically improve its product, and focus on youtube and social media as outlets, it needs to adapt to the media market not try and make the media market adapt to them. How is it that they are so lacking in self-awareness? Ultimately this is a war they can’t win. The question is - how long will it go on. And what damage will be done along the way.

Michael Clarkson (@ria_747) reported@Stephencheatley @virginmedia Just get freeview or freesat, Stephen. I’ve got Virgin media broadband and to be fair I’ve never had any problems.

Susie Burton 🇬🇧🏴 (@SusieWBmeme) reportedMy elderly, widowed neighbour struggles to navigate Freeview. Her smart TV supports Netflix, Prime, Sky, but even if she could afford those platforms, she would be terrified of touching a different button on the remote. She sleeps very little and the TV is her only companion. If she can’t return to her familiar menu, she panics. I’ve had desperate calls from her in the evening, petrified that she’s ‘broken’ her TV. She never has, but her swollen arthritic fingers struggle with the tiny, spongy remote buttons. It’s heartbreaking 🥹. The @LabourParty DO NOT GIVE A **** about the vulnerable and elderly. I honestly believe they’re building to a ‘Logan’s Run’ style of totalitarian State 🤬

Bryan (@htfc2) reported@MartinAsto6999 @NzFubar TVNZ+ has the WC rights. They are also after the rights for the NRL off sky. According to my local tv aerial guy we have only another 18 months of satellite service left, we latched onto a S.Korean one. Freeview will disappear, everything will have to be subscription.
