As I say, left wingers think it should be cherished and maintained. Right wingers see it's become biased and dysfunctional and is trying to push society in the way its middle class, champagne socialist, fat cat ****ers think it should go. And we have to pay them royally to do it. Let me ask you this, Strolls. What would be lost by making the BBC Drama a subscription service like Netflix? And making 24 hour news and Radio commercial like their competitors. There already is advertising on BBC News 24, because they often have long adverts about forthcoming programs that not everyone wants to watch.
Its ok mate, i will get one of my brothers to investigate, should have the report ready in around 36 months.
But people don't want all the services. And many can't afford to pay £159 pa, particularly pensioners. And the BBC wants to put that up too. There's so much choice in viewing now, subscription and free TV. The BBC is a big, monolithic, dictatorial dinosaur sucking funds from the public for its own political agendas. No future for it in its present form.
I couldnt begin to tell you what bbcs political agenda is but i agree with your other points. Why pay for a subscription to a service which is pretty **** anyway. Obviously thats just my opinion. But if its that good then just watch it on a stream, after live broadcast and you dont have to pay for it.
It does, and you don't have to look far back for an example. Look at the way it's been dealing with the incident with the bus full of Jewish kids on Oxford Street, abused by Muslim men. The BBC had an anti Israel stance that is morphing into antisemitism. It seems to be recruiting plenty of young people with a pro-Palestine, pro-Islamist view. If you can't see this, others can.
Hate to tell you Bob, but if you watch stuff on iPlayer or recorded from BBC you are still open to prosecution for license evasion - they changed the rules a few years back now. However, if you use a third party application to watch this stuff, whilst breaking a pile of copyright laws you don't need a license!
I cant remember the last time i watched something on the bbc. Maybe a question time years ago. I bet over half the country illegally streams things and good on them
Typical. I remember a case of some Eastern European who they let stay here who went on to rape and murder a young school girl. Maybe these judges should be held to account if these people later go on to commit a crime?
