Their left biasnesses really turned me off - their Brexit coverage, promoting Nish Kumar on children's education with their ridiculous horrible history. Questiontime ....seeing racism in everything I think a lot of people have had enough- if you want them, pay for it through subscription.
Completely agree, however in the BBC's defense it was relatively impartial in the build up to the Brexit vote. As soon as the vote went the way it did it became clear they didn't understand the country outside of London and didn't have the diversity of thought or opinion within the organisation to understand it. It just wasn't in their capabilities. I've not watched any of its news or political output since then.
@@josephyoung7592 The reason the BBC was reasonably impartial in the run up to the referendum was because the Tories leant on them and reminded them they had a duty of impartiality.
@@johnrandall125 No. They were reasonably impartial because they thought they had the vote stitched up. They never envisioned that the peasants would defy their overlords and vote the wrong way.

If we had the option to pay for watching BBC they wouldn’t collect enough money for anything. Defund the BBC and consign to history. Replace with unbiased news broadcaster and provider of general entertainment and I’d be happy to pay.
I cancelled my TV licence. The last nail in the coffin was when Emily Maitlis spewed her leftist, biased bile all over my lounge on Newsnight regarding Dominic Cummings. That was deplorable.
People I know are buying Netflix among others and not paying license.....I will make the move too and I'm not simply saying that as its the obvious thing to do
As a 48 year old white male, they have nothing worthwhile to say to me. Older people are seen as bigoted buffons in their dramas. Their bizzare left wing bias is truly appalling defund them now

Scrap the licence fee. I cancelled mine 3 years ago and haven't watched TV since-it's liberating and best of all you're putting the luvvies out of work!!
darkdog wassy why should decent citizens be made to fund an organisation that employed paedophiles and non indigenous? It is supposed to be British as in their title 🤬
They don't have to cut staff jobs nor must they be abolished. Just let them go independent, hence, people can then choose whether they want to pay the licence or not. (They'll soon go into administration).
Broadcasters don't employ racists, BBC has sacked people who has voiced racist views, Talk Radio has, LBC sacked Nigel Farage. for making a racist comment, I will be amazed if the BBC would employ him . Danny Baker made a racist comment on Twitter, BBC sacked him. My own view is I don't believe Danny Baker is a racist, but I am afraid the comment he made on Twitter was racist.
What annoys me the most is when they brag about the fact that 400 million people across the world have access to the BBC. You live here you pay. Geographicall discrimination if there is such a thing.
When i was a kid in the 70's i didn't need 'yoof' tv, i quite liked seeing older people on tv, in fact, i trusted them more because they had experience on their side. The BBC is out of touch, it lives in a bubble. Defund it.
I've tried to stick up for the BBC but the funding model cant carry on. No other business in the world operates on the basis of a captive market and guaranteed income with no recourse for dissatisfied customers.
Yes. They need their broadcasting licence taken away as well. They have shown time and again they are utterly incapable of reporting anything in a fair and impartial manner.
_It's funny when pro-BBC people say "you get so much for your money, most people are happy to pay for what you get"_ _OK, so all those happy people won't mind paying a Netflix style / yearly subscription fee?_ _BBC supporter; * silence *_
The tipping point is coming when the licence fees won’t meet the budget. So keep the process alive. And watch BBC for free until they arrest you. Why not waste the courts time and then the system itself will change
The penny dropped for me when, reading the BBC's remit, no mention was made of "truthfulness" or "accuracy" but instead a big push about "maintaining civil society" (according to criteria which were not disclosed). That's no basis for any kind of trust.
I must admit I've really had enough of the BBC now. For some years I held a candle for them due to the classic comedies and programmes that we all know and love. But it's over now. They should scale back their operations to two TV channels and local radio like the old days, and then take some advertising. I don't want to be forced to pay for them anymore.
900 jobs are going not 450. Another 450 were announced a few months back but are 'suspended' Wish it was 9,000. They don't even pretend to be 'impartial' anymore.
If you don’t watch live tv , you do not have to pay , I do not as I will have nothing to do with the bbc, if you do use there services then pay for it, simple 😐
When they were told they were too London centric they should have opened a new Pebble Mill in Brum, expanded the Oxford Road Studios in Manchester and opened small studios up around the country. What they did instead was move the whole thing from London to Manchester which cost hundreds of millions. They're now diminishing the regional studios which give a voice to the rest of the country outside of Salford Quays.
the bbc has been going down hill for years lost most of the sport they had rarely show decent films and the presenters are over paid and under talented
Where do you stand on the defund the BBC debate?
Definitely defund them!!
All funding should be gone..... about time they hit the free market and go woke, go broke.....
100 percent. Sick of the biase, virtue signalling and lies spewed out by the propaganda machine that is the BBC
talkRADIO defund now
They dont present the news they present a political agenda. No body should be forced pay for that.
No one should end up in court or go to prison just because they don't want to fund the Jimmy Savile Broadcasting Corporation.

We taking the BBC to seriously. They want diversity,let them pay the licence. It should have been closed after Brexit.
Yes you are right. Brexit night was broadcast for EU. Cancelled mine this week👍
Maybe the BBC should try diversity of thought and opinion?
too not to

And me.

Hi Hi Hi The BBC are deeply worried about funding.
Its sad that you can get a more balanced view on the news from Al Jazeera than from the BBC
This is true - Al Jazeera are far more balanced and more actual information - Also France 24 speaks better of Britain than the dreaded BBC.
Wion
I stopped funding the bbc years ago
I stopped paying my licence fee last year - life is much better without the woke, PC obsessed BBC in my life.
Why can’t we be able to get it switched off and not be able to see it on our tv
Iain Dennis Stopped mine too ....haven’t watched it for years .....so don’t need it ......
Racist against England and the English hate them with a passion, feels so liberating to stop your direct debit stuff em

end the licence and make it subscription so only those who want it pay and can watch it

There's no justification for a license to watch a TV in this day and age. Outdated and unnecessary.
