Well, it at all sounded good.'Greg Dyke, the former BBC director-general, has recommended the abolition of the licence fee after almost 90 years, in a report commissioned by David Cameron.'
But then...
'The broadcaster should instead be funded directly by the state from taxation, argues the dossier, to be published by the Conservatives in the New Year. Dyke, who is chairing a panel of 12 senior industry figures, says this would save £100m in administrative costs.'
No. We need to save £3.5 BILLION per annum, Mr Dyke, and the State should not be funding any broadcaster! If this is where Cameron is coming, I fear those of us who have been cynical about Conservative intentions towards the bloated BBC bureaucracy will be proven correct. Alas. Thoughts?
