    When the BBC began, it had far fewer employees and departments than it has now. They have become bloated with people and services that are available on the free market already. So the BBC need to significantly downsize it's content and workforce to keep within a budget that competitive with the free market, otherwise more people will cancel their TV licence and be happy with the quality content on the free market.

    Why was there no mention of the fact that you have to have a TV licence in order to watch all the non BBC output?? Have a TV licence by all means, but remove ITV, channel 4, channel 5 etc from the scope of the TV licence. People then choose whether to have a TV licence to watch just BBC programmes. I have never understood why we need a TV licence to watch all non BBC programmes - totally unfair and unjustifiable.

    Big point missed . Accountability! If the programmes are poor advertisers won’t pay and people won’t pay subscription. Currently being a forced tax they have no accountability. You pay fee if you want bbc or not. If it was a choice they would have to make programmes for people to tune into. I don’t watch anything on BBC but pay lisence fee for my young children and CBeebies . But once they older i won’t have any use for it as for me personally the programmes are garbage.

    We don’t want the BBC to continue. It is a woke, leftist organisation and that shows in every programme they create/show. There is no “good quality” British entertainment anymore. They stuff historical dramas with people of colour and members of the LGBTQ+ community - the ‘baddie’ is always the white, male, upper class, stereotype.
    The argument “that you can’t do it at the moment” is based on the outdated belief that people want it. The BBC kids programmes are awful and woke as well. They fight against a subscription model as unsustainable for the BBC and at the same time say that the majority want the BBC for its quality - both cannot be true.
