Abolish the TV Lience Fee

Petition Details

Abolish the TV Licence Fee in favour for a fairer funding model, such as a subscription service or government funding instead.

Additional Information

The current system is outdated and unfair, as it forces people to pay for BBC services regardless of whether they use them. Many people now access news and entertainment through streaming services, making the licence fee redundant.
