What the petition asks
The BBC is supposed to be an un-biased and impartial broadcaster. It simply cannot do this whilst accepting money from any source other than the TV Licence.
Recently it has emerged that the BBC has been accepting millions of pounds from the European Union which is particularly perturbing when one considers the widely held view that the BBC is biased in its news reporting on the forthcoming EU referendum.
The BBC must be prevented from accepting money from outside sources.
