I think the BBC have finally realised that younger and middle aged people are turning away from buying the over-priced and poor value for money TV licence and choosing instead free or lower cost streaming services.
What to do?
I know, let's squeeze some more money out of the oldies, after all they're game for it and they've been paying us for years!
What next, scrap the bus pass? Scrap the state pension?

fast forward to 2021 And there is hardly anything worth watching on BBC,
EVERY damn programme is politically correct and WOKE, They always have to preach to the viewer , what The BBC fail to realize is no one Is watching this crap they will continue losing viewers And hopefully go bankrupt,
I read EastEnders was down to 1 million viewer's, GOOD, I remember watching in the 90s and it was fantastic, now they have actors who can't act, unattractive characters, and recycled storylines,not to mention a constant focus on politically correct storylines

As a night shift worker and someone that has very poor sleep patterns, I'm awake most nights and every night without fail from about 3am they show "This is BBC 2" and roll out the same crap I know word for word.
Female comedian talking about her Nigerian Mother reacting to her choice of career. The lass with Parkinson's reduced to tears when she's able to write her name, the recruits, the Victorian dosshouses and washing line beds, soldiers sporadically diving, rolling and spinning to "GO!!!", that annoying git from Masterchef wearing a paper hat and marvelling over crunchy nut cornflakes tasting like nuts... oh God it's painful.
How dare you charge ANYONE never mind OAP's.

If people are genuinely concerned, perhaps we should raise the licence by £10 for everyone, which would raise enough funds for free licences for the over 75s.
