“HUGE Overreach” Labour Considers FORCING Households That Only Use Netflix To Pay BBC Licence Fee

Labour is considering forcing households who only use streaming services, like Netflix, to pay the BBC licence fee under new rules. The licence, which the Government has committed to increasing in line with inflation each year until 2027, is to rise to £174.50 in April. The broadcaster has been cash-strapped in recent years following the licence fee being frozen for two years at £159 – before it was increased at a lower rate than the corporation expected, and rising inflation. The Government will use a review of the BBC’s Royal Charter, which will include a public consultation, to consider funding options to support the broadcaster’s long-term future. Talk’s Julia Hartley-Brewer discusses the story with campaign director at Defund the BBC Rebecca Ryan. #bbc #netflix #labour
