What the petition asks
Finally let the people have there say
give the people of the UK a choice wether they want a compulsory TV licence or not.
We should all have a choice wether we want the BBC or not. Netflix sky virgin amazon etc if you want it you pay but you are not forced to pay if you don't want it unlike the BBC witch is very unfair.
