Rejected petition No more BBC licence fees
More details
I believe that the licence fee is no longer worthwhile and needs to be scrapped. The BBC no longer sees itsself as a public institute but as a private company that can make its own agenda and as such should no longer be paid for by the public. If the BBC wants to act like a private company then they should raise their own revenue and compete in the real world not be subsidised by the Great British public.
