BBC licence fee is 'least worst' option, says new chairman Richard Sharp
Richard Sharp says the BBC represents good value, but how it is funded "may be worth reassessing".

That bloody BBC license fee being used to educate kids on a state level whilst schools are closed.
Shameful our state broadcaster through the way funded can improve our kids education. Whatever next, another fucking amazing David Attenborough documentary called stop being so selfish!?
Piss well and truly boiled...

Think the beeb's good value for money but you can flirt the regional spot, Roger Johnson has just said " apparently it's the endorphins that make you feel good when you exercise" Ffs ! Don't get me started about Owain !

Nice to see them flogging line of duty on the 6 o'clock news.
Makes a change from flogging strictly on on any live program they broadcast
Cheeky fuckers

Just spoken with a friend who works at the Beeb who says that in light of the Bill going through first reading on Friday the BBC are war gaming the likely drop in income and the lie of the land going forward - the worst case scenario is they are being told
BBC1 AND 2 only
local BBC TV coverage to be cut back to strategically important bases only
Radio 1,2,3,and 4 only.
iplayer becoming separate subscription site
red button gone
BBC website reduced to very basic news coverage only
BBC News channel and Parliament channel merged
Local radio stations decimated - a few strategic ones to survive
sports coverage almost gone - no MOTD - Live limited to FA Cup final and Wimbledon plus Olympics - probably no World Cup coverage
Access to surviving TV and radio networks subscription only
No free access to anyone age or health no longer considered
No requirement to provide access to all over the UK so could cut transmission in awkward to get to and not profitable area's
Subscription fees to be set by the BBC as part of the agreement with Govt and they are to be free to adjust when and by how much they like
Thats the worst case and can be sliced and diced as appropriate depending on projected income but the lass I was on to says its devastating - she is senior in local BBC and faces total shutdown.
So when you get blank screens and the hiss of static on your radio folks remember to thanks Peter Bone and the Bone Heads as you decide what exactly you can afford to subscribe to and realise £145 a year was a Billy Bargain

"The average 18 to 34 year old watches YouTube and Netflix not the BBC and shouldn't be forced to pay for it " says Brandon Lewis -as that goes its a full on lie - they aren't paying for it - the average age of a 1st time buyer in the UK was 33.1 years as of last Sept - in London it was 35 - therefore most will be living with parents and piggy backing on their parents license anyway.
The net result would be to have more people seeking entertainment on the social media sites that the govt cannot abide and cannot regulate. Will be quite funny when they approach Facebook Twitter and the like to do their PPB's and find there is no legislation compelling them to air it so they get the big fuck off.
They never really think things through do they?
