Not really, there are two sides to the debate, and the BBC is clearly taking one of them and not the other.

  they could have been a lot more balanced as half of their viewership that pay for a tv licence voted out, they are promoting their own downfall. they are highly pro immigration, whether immigration is a good thing or not they are siding with their own downfall as immigrants don't pay for tv.

    >> as immigrants don't pay for tv Wait, what? Why wouldn't they? I'm an "immigrant" in the UK and I pay for the TV licence. Unless you just make a blanket statement that is designed to make to lump all immigrants into one bag of people who don't pay tv licence?

      i meant non-english speaking immigrants.

        Then post some data to back this up! Everyone watching live TV in the UK has to pay the TV licence fee or they will be heavily fined - and I'm 100% certain the enforcement agency doesn't give a damn whether you speak English or not, they will fine you anyway. I'm also extremely curious what % of immigrants to UK doesn't speak English, if you really want to follow your line of logic.

          it used to be that if you watched any British TV you had to pay for a licence, but now it has to be live.

            It has actually changed recently so watching any content made by BBC requires a licence, even if it's not live.
