Needs to change BBC News to "Coercion Funded Media" or "Threat Funded Media" refuse to accept that an organization that LARPs as a fake government body (TV Licensing) and sends me a threatening letter every 2 weeks with threats of fines, courts and police when I have zero interest of watching their product to be "Publicly Funded".
- groffee 4y agoYou can tell them you don't need one here https://www.tvlicensing.co.uk/check-if-you-need-one/topics/telling-us-you-dont-need-a-tv-licence https://www.tvlicensing.co.uk/check-if-you-need-one/topics/t... It does need abolishing though.
- whywhywhywhy 4y agoDon’t see why I should dox myself to them for a thing I never want and never asked for.
- retrac 4y agoThe TV tax is just that, a tax. A weird, oddly specific tax with its own weird, oddly specific tax enforcement department. But that's all it is. A tax. And yes, most countries with taxation collect taxes with threat of force.
- whywhywhywhy 4y agoIt’s not a tax, it’s optional. It’s a subscription pretending to be a tax with a fake organization as it’s enforcement arm. That’s why it’s called “tv license” not “tv tax” and doesn’t feature on any of my tax documents.
