I want to rename the tv license fee and make it an NHS yearly fee instead
Rejected

What the petition asks
I find the BBC to be a bloated and biased corporation and its about time they were left to stand on their own like all other TV channels. The money we are forced to pay for a "service" some people don't even use could be much better spent bolstering the struggling NHS , a service we all use.
Why it was rejected
There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.
Abolish the BBC television license.
You could start a new petition asking to increase NHS funding, if that's something you'd like to see happen.
