Rejected petition BBC iPlayer Live TV to have a Twitter Application

More details

Many of us enjoy using Twitter to talk about BBC programmes when watching them online - an example is Question Time, which often promotes its hashtag, #bbcqt, online.

I propose the Culture Secretary works with the BBC to add a Twitter application to the BBC iPlayer page - with the option to hide it for non-twitter users - so that BBC can continue their forward-thinking use of social media.

(Note - obviously this would be more useful for the live programming on iPlayer, not recorded programmes).

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

This is a matter for the BBC.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
