Put control of the BBC in the hands of the electorate to restore impartiality.
In recent years and most notably during and after the recent referendum on Europe the BBC has show itself to be the propaganda arm of the UK government. They are in very clear breach of their charter and must now be brought back under control of the people whom it is supposed to serve.
"The BBC Trust is here to act in the interest of licence fee payers. By licence fee payers we not only mean those whose name is on the television licence, but also any other person in the UK who watches, listens to or uses any BBC service, or may do so in the future."
The first article of the BBC's charter; pushing the agenda of the political elite and suggesting 52%+ of the electorate are foolish and gullible does not appear to be in the interest of licence payers.
This cannot be permitted.

You could start a new petition calling for the members of the BBC Trust to be elected, if that's what you would like to happen.
