The BBC though, does not have to sing for its supper, which is why it is so complacent and why this scandal is just one of a number. Its revenue is close to £4bn a year, almost all of which is payed at point of law.

If they charged say, £10 a month for it, I would pay it, though I don't watch it much. Most would pay it.

But the forced payment system, impacting poorer people most, in the 21st century, is completely unacceptable, and in the long term, untenable.

They could slim down by massive amounts, do less, charge openly.

I haven't paid a licence for years, on principle.

The demands for payment are disgraceful and must be terrifying for old people to receive. Huge red letters threatening legal action, massive fines, etc. The people they send to your home, calling themselves officers, are nasty, aggressive and paid on commission. They demand entry without warrants, or warrants which aren't enforceable, and target the vulnerable.

As I've explained on my doorstep the BBC don't actually have the legal right to demand a home with a TV must pay a licence fee.

There's no way I'm paying a licence fee that's given away to people like Gary Lineker cracking corny jokes with Alan Shearer and telling me how to watch a football match.

And that's just two of hundreds I can easily do without.

Me neither usually mate.

This could turn out to be a load of rubbish. I hope it is, because I like the guy. I'm in Liverpool and everyone around here is saying that's its him.
