This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Shut down the entire BBC news reporting organisation.
BBC news is completely biased and they actively hate the majority of the population. They have been engaged primarily in a social engineering agenda, rubbishing the electorate or whipping up hysteria rather than reporting the news. Remove their entire news team - they are beyond redemption.
More details
With both Brexit and the Trump presidency the BBC has pursued a biased editorial agenda, and hidden wider truths behind petty arguments over trivial facts. It has failed to represent all sides of the debate and has selectively given prominence to some facts and not others.
The BBC should stick to making wildlife programmes. They are good for little else.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The BBC is an independent body governed by a Royal Charter. Under the terms of that Charter, the BBC is operationally and editorially independent of government and there is no provision for the government to intervene in the BBC’s day-to-day operations.
