🚨Outrageous! A senior Whitehall source claims Labour plans a £180 YouTube tax to fight the supposed ‘fake news’ they blame for Reform’s rise. Millions of Defunders would be FORCED to pay. This authoritarianism must be stopped. Email your MP: defundbbc.uk

The BBC was set up to inform, educate and entertain - not brainwash our children. I tried the game for myself to see if it really was as bad as this article indicates. It is. The BBC need to explain why they are using taxpayer money to push a left-wing political agenda onto our children. Yet another impartiality failure.

🚨BBC Bitesize is rewarding impressionable kids if they back open borders and amnesties for illegal immigrants. The BBC's political indoctrination of our children is grotesque. And Labour wants millions MORE households forced to fund it! #DefundTheBBC

“Oh, what a tangled web we weave...” White BBC staff have lower median hourly pay in 6 of its 7 career bands. Imagine the yowling if this were another organisation. My GB News op-ed on BBC hypocrisy—and why we shouldn’t fund its rescue 👇 #DefundTheBBC gbnews.com/opinion/bbc-dei-p…

🚨Another name for the BBC hall of shame. It's been revealed that Kevin Adams — BBC Fame Academy coach — was convicted of sexually assaulting Andy Carroll. He joins a grim list of BBC "stars" and presenters convicted of serious sexual offences: Huw Edwards Rolf Harris Stuart Hall Jonathan King Chris Denning Chris Langham Dave Lee Travis Peter Rowell Kevin Adams And that list doesn’t even include the vile Jimmy Savile, who died before he could ever face justice.

How many scandals does one broadcaster have to be dragged through before Westminster stops treating it as a treasured national institution that the public must be forced to fund? Email your MP today👇 defundbbc.uk

I said in 2023 during the Huw Edwards scandal that the BBC was a “safe haven for perverts” and demanded the licence fee be scrapped in the wake of the latest scandal. Jon Sopel, free from rules on impartiality, branded my comments “moronic and offensive”. @jonsopel I was right then and I'm right now. I've said this several times in Parliament and will continue to say it. Why wont you call it out?

🚨Westminster is rotten Poll after poll has found around two-thirds of Britons want the BBC licence fee scrapped 2.7 MILLION households have already cancelled theirs since our campaign launched in 2020 Yet MPs’ answer is to expand the system so MORE people are forced to pay?

I find it so depressing that the bbc sacrificed its steady loyal viewers who watched things like Question of Sport, to chase a younger audience who were never going to tune in. Or buy a tv license. Short sighted. As a younger audience will get older & watch different things.
It's genuinely sad to see the once respected @BBC scrabbling about for its financial survival. But they have nobody to blame but themselves. Their entire output has become focused on left-wing, woke nonsense aimed at the 18-35 age group that doesn't pay the licence fee. Auntie has passed her use-by date. newspaper.mailplus.co.uk/dat…

🚨The BBC is in an “inescapable doom spiral”, we're told. And already the calls have begun for politicians to step in and secure more funding. 🗣️We say: good riddance🧵 #DefundtheBBC

📢 Tell your MP: scrap the TV licence. Don't force the public to prop up a failing model through a broadband levy or general taxation👇 defundbbc.uk

🚨Plans being considered as part of the BBC Charter Review could see the licence fee replaced with a compulsory levy automatically added to broadband bills. 🤬That means households which have ditched the BBC could be forced to pay again - even if they don't watch any live TV.

🔥The BBC’s modern-day book burning continues. 👀It doesn’t just want to decide what you watch. Apparently, it now wants to decide which jokes from 20 years ago you’re still allowed to see. Even sketches mocking racism are apparently too offensive to be shown. #DefundTheBBC
