tv license to go up........

[Zooropa]

THE TV licence fee is going up £4 to £116 a year.

The above inflation rise, to be announced by Culture Secretary Tessa Jowell this week, will give the BBC an extra £100million.

But the move was condemned by the Tories, who have accused the Corporation of dumbing down.

Shadow Culture Secretary John Whittingdale said: "Why does the BBC need an extra £100million when the commercial channels are having to cope with a severe drop in income?"

Absolutely disgracefull!

A rebranded digital channel, a black radio channel, an asian radio channel, umpteen repeat channels! Need I go on?

Not getting a lot for our money are we?

Has anyone seen BBC3 yet?
can,t say I,M overjoyed with it
even showing 24hrs first on it and eastenders before its shown on bbc1 might not bring in the viewers
