      @Anon E. Mous To be fair, this is a little different to the Nazis.
      I think if Jews had the choice of "have someone come to your door and ask whether you're avoiding paying for something" and the gas chambers, they'd probably choose the TV license...
      The TV license is flawed, simply because its overall a bit ridiculous. But should probably keep a little perspective, especially for when someone does the job respectfully.

    • @martinjohnson9316
      @martinjohnson9316 Před 3 lety +5

      All live broadcasting in the UK (which is a combination of self-funded channels and the one public funded channel being the BBC) requires you to have a £152 annual licence which, effectively, funds the programming on the public BBC channels so that it does not have to show advertising to finance it and importantly, could remain unbiased in its output. This used to be all fine and dandy until the BBC allowed itself
      to be run by Liberal/Left management which means now we have a woke/BLM/virtue signalling/anti-brexit bias in its output. What is now happening is that the licence payers are leaving in ever greater numbers disgusted by this bias in order to defund the BBC....hence the TV licensing goon knocking on the door trying to make people feel obliged to finance their bile.

    If you watch live tv, you require a licence.
    If you never watch live tv, go to the bbc website and declare that you don’t watch live tv. You need to do it every 2 years.
    I did it in March 2020 and never had a problem. If they knock, simply engage in polite conversation and tell them that you never watch live tv. They can only legally enter your property with your permission which you don’t have to do or a Court Order. For this, there will be a Police Officer present.
