Or Virgin Media/Sky subs which some are paying around £1000 a year for mostly repeated, advert ridden, imported content.

It's political cobblers from the swivel eyed loony right that will backfire. There were equal claims of bias from the left at the last GE. No doubt Mr Murdoch is pulling Bozzas strings too. See some more level headed Tories are having a bit of a wobble about it.

The Conservative party risks losing voters if it continues its "vendetta" against the BBC, senior Tories have warned amid a mounting backlash.

Last night backbench MPs threatened to oppose reported plans by the government to scrap the licence fee and replace it with a subscription model.
