Abolish TV Licencing and Increase National Insurance

Petition Details

The NHS is funded by N. I. which is proportional to earnings.
The BBC is funded by a Licence Fee which costs a minimum of £145 a year.

People are being forced to pay for a non-essential service while an essential one is in dire need of extra funding.

We must cut off the BBC to save the NHS.
