Rejected petition Stop the BBC from using taxpayer pounds to fund a portrait of any past, current or future employee of the BBC.

More details

This proposal is a criminal waste of taxpayers licence tax taken from them under threat of criminal sanction even if they own and use a television receiver which is blocked from receiving the BBC signal. Portraits of profligate expense guzzling fatcats with access to billions of somebody else's money which they freely and fraudulently use to enrich their friends at the top in the BBC are a vomit inducing insult.
