Rejected petition Abolish the licence fee and privatise the BBC

The BBC is now seriously editorially biased. On a range of political issues, it uses public money to consistently misrepresent the facts to fit a narrow progressive agenda, and it cannot be trusted to reflect fairly the views of everyone who pays for it. It should no longer be publicly funded.
