🚨The BBC is at it again - pushing a compulsory "household levy" as a replacement for the TV licence.
The move is designed to force the 2.5 million households who've cancelled their licences since 2020 to once again fund the (anti)British Broadcasting Corporation 🧵

I find it so depressing that the bbc sacrificed its steady loyal viewers who watched things like Question of Sport, to chase a younger audience who were never going to tune in. Or buy a tv license. Short sighted. As a younger audience will get older & watch different things.
It's genuinely sad to see the once respected @BBC scrabbling about for its financial survival.
But they have nobody to blame but themselves. Their entire output has become focused on left-wing, woke nonsense aimed at the 18-35 age group that doesn't pay the licence fee.
Auntie has passed her use-by date.

🚨The BBC is in an “inescapable doom spiral”, we're told.
And already the calls have begun for politicians to step in and secure more funding.
🗣️We say: good riddance🧵

📢 Tell your MP: scrap the TV licence.
Don't force the public to prop up a failing model through a broadband levy or general taxation👇

🚨Plans being considered as part of the BBC Charter Review could see the licence fee replaced with a compulsory levy automatically added to broadband bills.
🤬That means households which have ditched the BBC could be forced to pay again - even if they don't watch any live TV.

How convenient.
Ofcom “forgot” to publish data showing viewers trust GB News more than the BBC — despite publishing the figures every year.
It only emerged after @GBNEWS demanded the data.

🔥The BBC’s modern-day book burning continues.
👀It doesn’t just want to decide what you watch.
Apparently, it now wants to decide which jokes from 20 years ago you’re still allowed to see.
Even sketches mocking racism are apparently too offensive to be shown.

The BBC’s pro-migration, open-borders worldview means it won’t ask the difficult questions about illegal migration.
Defund the BBC
🚨 Small-boat migrants are going “from dinghy to HMO in seven weeks.”
So why isn’t BBC News — with its £888,000-a-day budget — properly investigating what's happening?
Christian Drogan (@watchman_raw), who went undercover to cross the Channel in a small boat, asks @trussliz

🚨Broadcast TV audiences are collapsing
💣Weekly reach has plummeted from 92% to just 54% in a decade.
So what have the Lords demanded today?
More protection for BBC funding 🙄
The establishment answer is always the same:
Protect the BBC. Make the public pay.

What are the chances? BBC Newsnight goes to Piddington and just happens to find the one woman more worried about woke signalling than the safety of women and girls.
Remarkable journalism👏
#DefundTheBBC
"It's really upsetting - it's always been the most amazingly peaceful place to live and we've never experienced the level of overt racism that we’re witnessing"
Rachel, a Piddington resident, expresses her concern at some of the arguments made in opposition to plans for a nearby disused MoD base to house 1200 male asylum seekers.

Is it because the BBC is freeloading off hardworking British taxpayers itself that it can't get its head around the concepts of aspiration, work and not being forced to carry the weight of those who refuse to?

'You should aspire to live wherever you want to live, but you shouldn't aspire for the government, i.e. other taxpayers, to pay for you to live wherever you want to'
Conservative party leader Kemi Badenoch told #BBCBreakfast she would target housing allowance as one of the measures to reduce spending on welfare
