Stop State censorship of the BBC
The BBC has recently axed The Mash Report for being critical of government. This in itself is representative of the larger issue of government interference in BBC programming.
The BBC should remain impartial. We pay our license fee for a free media, not for government propaganda.
Re-instate The Mash Report and ensure programming decisions are taken by an impartial committee.
