What the petition asks
To halt the BBC from stopping Free TV licencees to over 75s in the UK.
When the UK Government informed the BBC they would no longer fund Free TV licencees they allowed the BBC freedom in other financial profit making to compensate for them having to fund the over 75s Free licence scheme themselves, the BBC have renaged on this promise/ committment !
