Closed petition End the TV licence and sell the BBC

We want the Government to end the TV licence and sell the BBC, so it is operated commercially.

More details

We believe the TV Licence is an out-dated scheme. A lot of people disagree with the way the BBC is run and would rather it was sold and operated commercially.

A lot of houses don't have TVs but if they have a mobile phone or laptop they use to watch live broadcasts they need have to have a TV Licence, even if they don't watch BBC programmes, which is what most of the TV Licence goes to fund.
