Comparing the bbc to essential social services such as health, education, policing and benefits is just stupid take those away and the country quickly crumbles and we would all have bugger all. If the bbc disappeared tomorrow the country would still function perfectly well and all that would probably happen is more people finding out that actually the type of programs they enjoyed on the bbc are on plenty of other channels and in some cases better quality of those programs.

Really comparing the two is a desperate tactic by some supporters and simply isn't a valid comparison. As for you flyboy is this another thread where your going into anti tory fever as you do quite often. Your beloved labour party are on the way out and hopefully for a very long time and after everything they have done they truly deserve it.

Cameron has done no more then blair did before him and they all cosy upto whoever they think they have too in the runup to an election murdoch is of course someone to cosy upto given his media interests blair saw that and funnily enough it was ok for blair to do it but cameron does it oh my god it has to mean an imminent attack on the bbc how stupid.

Everything has to change and evolve and the bbc has had a lot of good years where it hasn't really had too but now the tide is turning and a lot of people find no problem in expressing their dissatisfaction with both the licence and the bbc.

Call me selfish if you want but i am all for choice in life as much as you can and the fact that we have no choice at all in regard to the bbc or our money going to it to me is wrong.
