GNR..what the BBC did in the past, is past, we are now in 2020. I hear that in the past the BBC were going to give OAP's of 75 and over a free licence, well they reneged on that saying things change. They surely do, there are now many Broadcasters who have to work hard for their viewers, make the BBC the same.

If you and others want to subscribe to the BBC, you will have the choice. Don't you think that is fair, lets stop prosecuting people for something that should never have been a criminal offence.

Joe Say/Cautios7........
Criticize editorial opinions and personalities, expose bias on news reporting but don't blame the BBC as an institution which will educate, upset, provoke or please, as is your wont! Information, education & entertainment is "The BBC" from production to news gathering to decimation. Without the BBC who started the whole technical rigmarole of designing and deploying the world's first transmitters circumventing the globe, first for radio then for TV. First for producing the BBC micro, a serious home computer with an operating language for it's "Computer Literacy Project". They pioneered very high quality sound reproduction and recording techniques set standards for vinyl master platters, inventing frequency compression for transmitting true hifi orchestral music. First in sports broadcasting to reach every corner of the Commonwealth."Open University" education production, filming intricate laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery, "Sky at Night" with it's in depth astronomical and space-related topics, Only the BBC can make radio comedy programmes like "Round the Horne and all that followed. No period drama without them or indeed Monty Python! Could go on but I think you've got the gist of why I think we'd be poorer without this civilizing cultural institution!

Me thinks the chimps are suffering from attentional bias.

@k38

"I don't mind pay licence to BBC as long as they give up reporting the news"

It's worse than just the news though as their political correct ideology seeps into ALL their programming from soaps, to dramas and even Doctor Who.

"M2, that's an understandable reaction when confronted with a truth which challenges your shoddily constructed cobbled together interpretation of the world.
I'd been interested to establish what precisely makes me a numpty though, can you back it up old boy? ;)"

No need your doing a fine job by yer self you Numpty.

BBC criminalising thousands of young people for failing to pay the licence fee

The Ministry of Justice figures from magistrate court appearances also state that in the past children as young as 10 were prosecuted along with a handful of those aged between 12 and 14.

re BBC Go and live abroad for 6 years then one will realise what a jewel BBC is people just knock it for nothing huh ..

[minerve 2] 03/1/2020 14:57

Yawn.

Anything new to say chimps because this is getting incredibly boring and repetitive.

[k38] 03/1/2020 14:55

BBC reporters job is to report the real news and NOT their opinions, beliefs or fake news. They fail to do their job and openly disrespect the public who pays their fat salaries.

BBC posted the truth on Brexit.

Little Englander brains can't deal with the truth.
