This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament

Rejected petition Abolish the TV license fee for ALL U.K. Tax payers.

The TV license is a senseless and unnecessary expense in the 21st century, when every other channel in the U.K. Sustains its own income. As the British tax payers are funding the BBC I believe it is the right of the British public to choose how we manage its future.
