Reallocate BBC licence fee to assist with the Chancellors budget plan.
UK households are expected to pay £147.50 per year to own a television raking in £3.7bn quite frankly ridiculous in 2016 and compares to the window tax of 1696. Money that would be better spent elsewhere, NHS, Education.... the deficit? We pay it anyway, I suggest we spend it where its needed.
When the Chancellor is still looking to make cuts £3.7bn would go a long way to help balance the books.
BBC finances report 2013/14 that they took in £3.7bn from households in the UK up £16m from the previous year.
