Please do so! But they seem to have done the research and presented it in accessible format? The UK MSM printed media online references are more restrictive in their presentation so I can’t be ars*d to sign up for this that and ‘t’other just to read their content.

Howzabout this reference which couldn’t possibly be biased.........?

According to the Telegraph, Boris is considering whether to de-criminalise non-payment of the TV licence. (Partly hidden behind a pay-wall).

The BBC is like PRAVDA, beholden, to the government of the day! For all that it produces some really good material and without BBC 3 and 4, en route, to the airfield, where would we be.

Let it be, my friends...

And this is from a left-wing rag;

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfr ... bbc-tories

Even BBC Radio4 this morning mentions the brewing storm though it’s obvious,like the Labour defea, those at the top have failed to read the seismic signs obvious to the peasants.

It will be a pity if we lose our public broadcasting service and go down the US/commercial route of minutes of mindless advertising punctuated by seconds of content but ultimately it will be the fault of the newly “woke” Corporation.

Confused! I thought the opinion here was that the BBC was 'leftie'?

It is, and it's been a real treat these last few days seeing the discombobulation of all the remoaner leftie luvvies at the historic defeat of Conshie Corbyn.

The Guardian speaks from its own parallel universe, any unemployable hack that is prepared to pen complete leftie nonsense is welcome there, the article is rubbish. There will be no reflection at Al Beeb of their position, a few days stunned silence at the election result and it will all be back again.
Stand by for a completly biased anti Brexit view of forthcoming negotiations, anti BJ articles and the received wisdom of yet more political rejects like Blair criticising events.

The BBC needs a good rake out but it won't happen, privatisation might help because at least they will have their vast salaries reduced.

Copywrite the name and then sell it with nobody allowed to use the name, after a couple of weeks who would remember it.

BBC News viewership has dropped over 25% in 5 years.
And nobody is saying that's because the options have improved.
Under 130,000 buy the Guardian. Knock off all the leftie institutions that buy it and I reckon under 100,000 citizens buy it now.

The Metro, which is free and probably suits his budget. He wouldn't want to be paying out his hard earned money to enrich some bloated capitalist publishing house.

You meant the kind of publishing house that made its money flogging dodgy motors then stuffs it into offshore tax-dodging banks...like The Guardian?

One of the 'Apprentice' 'stars' gets publicity :

The sickening :
And it seems Lottie Lion, 20, has caused fresh controversy after sharing a picture of a fox hunt over the weekend.

In a recent Instagram story, the former librarian, from Taunton in Somerset, posted a snap of a hunt, with the caption: 'Very proud to be a part of this community. Sad I am not on horseback this year.'

The TV 'personality' admitted that 'shoot days are her happy days' in one of her captions, pictured above
On the other hand :
Lottie said the part of Somerset she grew up in had a low crime rate ‘because not many black people live there’.

Another whinge at the BEEB - large parts of the south-eats of England are suffering with very unreliable reception on 'Freeview' Mux PSB1 which carries all the Beeb channels plus a couple of others. It is being blamed on the 'high pressure' over the UK. In my view it should be sorted PDQ and the frequency shifted so that there is no co-channel interference from the EU. I am so annoyed I may not pay my free TV licence.

boac, please wait til Johnson has decriminalised non-payment of the licence fee?

Dunno how you’d be able to post here as I know not the Wi-fi or broadband or 4G available in Her maj’s establishments.

The Freeview geeks are still shuffling MUXs around, oop north of the Humber-Mersey line we’ve had another instruction to retune Nov 2019 as the Beeb MUXs were moved to another frequency.

The only other solution is Freesat but that’s a cost item normally. However, in my village significant disturbance was caused to the signal from a main transmitter by some wind turbines so all those at the east end of the village who grumped got a Freesat aerial and decoder fitted foc courtesy of the wind farm operators.

I doubt that scheme would work with Les Frogs....... :O3

The BBC disgraces itself every time it produces a great piece of television or radio.
