There's a saving straight away, absolutely ridiculous that we are spending money on this minority and very rarely used language!

Also just vote NO, saves a lot of hassle.
It has high viewing figures, it's good value for money and Gaelic speakers are license fee payers too, so should get services in their language.

Moderators this has gone very OT now

According to the good Friday agreement it does, also stated on the Guardian's article above. It may be on low power.
Ah, it may be picked up in border areas.

What is the source for this?

Does it include football matches that no one tunes in to hear the gaelic language?

Read th guardian article. ATM 600k which in Scottish terms is really very good. It has always been popular since launch when it was 500k

If the argument is "Gaelic speakers are licence fee payers too, so should get services in their language", then I wonder how far that argument should be advanced in favour of the Punjabi/Polish/Kurdish/French communities who live in the UK?

I see your point, but 1) the minority ethnic groups you speak about already have TV and radio services (a vast amount) 2) Scotland's Gaelic speakers have no alternatives, only TV and radio in languages not of the own 3) mis conception, the programming is general Scottish programming, for all of Scotland not only for Gàidhealtachd or of Gàidhealtachd interest.

Do they have a vast amount of services provided by the licence fee, which they have to pay in order to access those that aren't?

I'm a big fan of ALBA 70's, ALBA 80's and ALBA 90's. Great nostalgic programming. Also don't mind the Gaelic commentary over the top of the live Scottish football they show.
