BBC to become a Subscription only Service.
The Government to revoke the BBC Charter and for the BBC to become a subscription only service, with the option for it to become a multi-channel digital television service provider. Start of this new service to be the 05 April 2021.
We feel that the current licence fee is grossly unfair and unethical in that everyone has to pay regardless. On threat of a criminal conviction even if you only use Television to watch other digital services i.e. Amazon prime or similar service. Since the introduction of digital services everyone has to pay twice to watch television. To your provider i.e. Sky, Virgin, BT or pay for a freeview box and a Licence.
The technology, software and electronic's are readily available to meet the start date.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure whether you'd like only BBC television to become a subscription service, or whether this would include other BBC output such as radio and the website.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
