Scrap the TV Licence
It's now passed its sell by date and I think most of us would agree that it is surely time to get rid of the TV licence. Is the BBC worth the cost of the licence? Join in the debate and tell us what you think!

| 16-4-2008 | As the money goes to BBC who put out the most pathetic news and weather programmes of all TV stations, why should they get any money from us?
