Time to withhold the license fee?

[wodger of awabia]

You may agree or disagree with the television licence, but it must be remembered that the licence fee is not a mandatory payment simply to enable you to watch BBC TV, it's a mandatory licence for you to watch all broadcast live television. I find it surprising that people who complain about this are often the same people who happily pay out hundreds each year for satellite or cable television services which come complete with adverts.

Personally, I would prefer the BBC to be funded out of general taxation, since I pay very little in tax.

Sometimes I think I would even be happy for the BBC to be completely closed down, since it is now so completely under pro-feminist (of the extreme radical kind) and pro-Israeli control. Biased is not a strong enough word to describe the BBC these days. Remember the outcry in 2009 when the BBC refused to broadcast a humanitarian appeal for victims of the Israeli attack on Gaza, an appeal which was broadcast by all others, including Sky and ITV. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvan ... -Gaza.html

The BBC is both biased and incompetent, but, of course, other broadcasters also have their own faults and shortcomings. One thing is certain. If the licence fee is stopped, if even the BBC is closed down, governments would find some other way of robbing us of our hard-earned money. And commercial broadcasters would continue with their own ways of ripping us all off..

Well if this happened where would all the homosexuals go to get a job?

Totally agree but not because of their sheer incompetence but because it's another rip off. I would welcome commercial breaks to the BBC network and do away with the licence fee. I'd happily pay the licence fee if there was something for everyone to watch ON BBC 1 at prime time instead of dancing and singing shows followed by casualty. CASUALTY!! Oh great, it's Saturday night, 9pm so lets settle down to a nice dose of people getting injured / ill/ dying. What a cheer. The only surprise is they haven't yet added Eastenders to the Saturday night schedule to compound the misery. Everytime that is on there is always someone either shouting or crying! No wonder I don't like London!


As for the sports output, MOTD fronted by suited gents and Robbie Savage who looks a complete arse, the FL show who show a couple of games, talk about them, show a couple more and talk about them and so on and so forth - IT'S PAST MIDNIGHT FFS! SHOW THE GOALS THEN F*CK OFF!!.

And Radio 1, OMFG. Rap, then a bit of R&B then a bt of girly rhianna type stuff then some more rap then a bit more R&b........THERE ARE OTHER MUSIC GENRES THAT YOU ARE ALLOWED TO PLAY ON MAINSTREAM RADIO YOU BUNCH OF VAGINAS!! What they play now makes me physically bilious and is just a load of women writhing about, a load of blokes with involuntary arm movements making unnatural high pitch noises and some tw*t in the background just going, YEAH YEAH YEAH . F*cking quality that pal. UNBELIEVABLE!!

A saving grace is BBC4. This often has programmes I freely admit i'm not intelligent enough to appreciate but it also has lots that I am and do. Oh and CBeebies is another output that is most welcome (as I also enjoy a bit of Numberjacks and Tree Fu Tom ).

come on andy. it has to ber dougal and florence. yeah. magic roundabout for me. topical political satrire for juniors.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but has anyone else seen the BBCs odd interpretation of positions in their squad lost for us?

Hutchings is a forward and Nathan Craig a defender!
