More news about the europhile BBC - this time about BBC 3 Television, which gets low ratings and which BBC presenter John Humphries allegedly said should be shut down:

That's ridiculously expensive.

Yes it is, Alex.

I would go further and say that the whole of the Brussels Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) is ridiculously expensive.

I cant recall ever watching BBC 3 yet my licence fee is increased year on year, time I feel to make the BBC a subscription based service.

Of course the Government will not do this as they would lose an important vehicle to spout there europhile nonesense.

A very good point, RJT.

I notice that Jowell, the pro-EU 'Culture' Secretary, said after renewing the BBC Charter "the NHS and BBC are the two greatest British Institutions".

Notice that she never mentioned our great Monarchy - nor our excellent and brave armed forces.

Nearly a year since my TV ceased functioning. Haven't missed it at all.

Try dumping that shizzle folks. You'll feel much better for it.
