Rejected petition TV LICENCE SHOULD BE SCRAPPED?

More details

In other countries across the world, they don't need to pay for a free service by watching television, but why do we have to pay for a service that is failing miserably. Who thinks that we should abolish the TV Licence scheme, and follow stead with other countries by allowing citizens of that country to watch TV for no charge at all only if it is a subscription service they are watching. If you think that you would like to abolish the failing scheme. Please sign this petition. Thanks.
