There is a case for those on the lowest of incomes to be exempt from the licence but exempting rich pensioners is crazy, they use it most !

Its 2019, we should be able to implement an infrastructure that allows people who pay the license to watch BBC and those that don't watch it not to pay. The likes of Sky channels and similar should not be 'locked' to those that pay a licence as those channels don't receive money from the license fee.
