Found this skit on BBC wokedom over on the social media feed of Secretary of Akkad. It’s excellent and sadly far too close to what the BBC actually do put out and which they charge, on pain of a criminal record, £159 per year for.
Love this. It’s hilarious and so very ‘BBC’
I dunno, I think though the BBC issue is a bit complex. Most developed countries have a ‘public broadcasting’ network along with commercial stations, funded in various ways either by a licence fee or out of direct taxation. I see no reason why the UK should dismantle the BBC and lose its world status. The £159 p.a. licence fee I understand works out at about £2.50 a week, hardly the price of a hot dinner for one family or two pints of lager and a packet of crisps at supermarket prices.
If I want to watch other channels but not the BBC I can opt out of paying it then can I?
I would do the same. I do not bother to watch the News its too depressing
Honest, fair, impartial and trustworthy public sector broadcasting is in my view a good thing. Sadly the BBC is becoming less and less like that. There’s very little I want from the BBC apart from Ceebeebies and even then I cringe at some of the wokery that pops up on it now and then. I don’t want their bent news, neither their depressing soap operas, nor the drama and cultural output of the BBC’s left wing middle class monothought clique or the desperately non-offensive and deeply unfunny BBC comedies. I don’t want it so why should I be forced to pay for it?
