It's also worth mentioning that these lazy fuks still haven't gone back to work because of the "pandemic" and have just been showing reruns since the lockdown began.

Misc doesn't know what it's talking about. It's a fee that funds public broadcasting channels, namely the BBC, which is free of ads.

Sure but the fact is watching any live TV requires you to pay it

You could be a Chinese dude that doesn't speak English, but if you want to watch live Chinese TV you gotta pay the BBC. Its ridiculous

A lot of people don't watch the BBC anymore, now that there's so many channels to choose and there's all the streaming services

No you're right.

The left say The Beeb too politically right leaning
The right say The Beeb too politically left leaning

Which means they're actually politically down the middle.

Slightly? You must be joking

It has become hard left before and during Brexit. Twice as many remainer guests on question time as leavers. Cancelling prom lyrics. Absurd amounts of lgbt programming and women’s football, on the main channel, where average attendances are in the hundreds.

I could go on. The ‘independent’ regulator (ofcom) is made up of a panel of 11.. 8 of them used to work there! That’s like having Hitler in charge at Nuremberg.

There’s always been anger at the tv license, but it’s reaching a tipping point. The hard left is mostly young students and barristas, and they sure as hell don’t want to pay. It’s only the metropolitan elite, from which the beeb almost exclusively recruits, keeping it going.

As someone said the other week, it’s the only corpse in history that is managing to bang more nails in the lid from the inside

Funny how it’s always the left that claim the bbc is balanced.

Anyway, my message to the beeb is carry on, you were pretty much responsible for losing Brexit and will, at some point, be responsible for a proper tory government coming back to power, which we haven’t seen since Thatcher. The liberal tears will be delicious

In uni we hid our TV and let the guy in and said we never had one, he still cased us on if we were watching iPlayer on our laptops though but we were never bothered after that.

Defending the BBC's political views?

The same BBC that employs Andrew-****ing-Neil as a senior political correspondent?

lol

Do me a favour.

Never paid it. Mostly because I watch maybe 5 matches of Wimbledon a year and that is it, otherwise my TV is used for streaming and the BBC is a lefitst pile of chit.

They send you ever more unbelievable threatening letters with fake printed 'official' stamps and signatures. One place I lived they did finally make good on their threats and showed up after 3 years and said I needed to pay, over the intercom I asked for a court order and when they couldn't produce one I said I wasn't letting a random person into my house and told him to gtfo. The letters and desperate attempts are 5/10 lulz. If you fill out the form saying you don't have a TV they still harass you just by name. Someone told me to return their letters to sender full of pistachio nut shells as it fuks up the automatic letter opening machine.

There was a freedom of information act and they have hardly any detector vans, it is likely totally impossible to pinpoint people in a block of flats too.
If you can't handle me when I'm incel, you don't deserve me when I'm chad

I cancelled it and don’t watch that ghey leftie bullchit. They can suck my fat one if they think I’ll pay for their propaganda ever again.

Interesting that 50% of youngsters don’t watch it. It will go at some point but not for a while.
