After the leaders debate type thing on the BBC earlier on, the main takeaway I’m getting is that the BBC Bias on display was among some of the worst ever seen.
Fiona Bruce is now interrupting . @BorisJohnson all the time something she didnt do to the others …. I think this warrants a compliant to the #bbc and . @ofcom …..I am thoroughly disgusted and this is not what I pay £12 per month for to sub this kind of bias…..#disgraceful

Yet again the bias is extraordinary.
This afternoon BBC put out a statement that said the audience would represent the current political demograph. It is quite clear roughly 75% are left wing labour voters. It’s a disgrace. This happens week in week out.— Foxxy (@thejazzmanblues) November 22, 2019
I wasn’t going to vote Conservative but after watching #bbcqt I’m going to.
That was the most disgraceful set up I’ve ever seen! Serious questions need to be asked about how this was allowed to happen!
I hope Boris absolutely obliterates Labour! https://t.co/w92UQVW9UI

The #BBCQT debate was a disgrace
The audience was chockfull of Labour Remainers, egged on by Fiona Bruce, who constantly interrupted Boris Johnson
The BBC once again show their left-wing pro-EU bias
Shame on them!

I’ve just made a complaint about appalling bias against Boris in tonight’s #bbcqt audience. Call 03700100222. You have to press a few numbers but eventually reach a human.
Well worth doing. Grrrrr!— Allison Pearson (@allisonpearson) November 22, 2019
I’m all in favour of the punters giving politicians of all stripes a hard time.
But in terms of shedding light rather than heat, give me an @afneil forensic grilling rather
than tonight’s #bbcqt— Paul Waugh (@paulwaugh) November 22, 2019
Important. Let’s do this. We’ve had enough of ludicrous BBC bias: https://t.co/2HwJ5FUVrp

For some time, even before they pissed me off by dropping the Formula 1 coverage + then ruining Top Gear, I have been in favour of looking to re-boot the BBC.
First I had the idea of hacking back the licence fee to a more reasonable £99.99 a year when it was only £144 a year for the thing, only to see it end up now costing a few pennies shy of £155 instead.
More recently I’ve been hatching an idea to add the policy section on the blog of scaling back the licence fee to £75 a year to put it inline with popular streaming services such as Amazon Prime Video + Netflix + Now TV, etc…. but still haven’t got round to it.
Others such as the Taxpayers Alliance + The Brexit Party + the IEA are in favour of chopping the TV Licence altogether.
