Make SKY pay...
Oct 12th, 2011, 6:45pm
 
Make SKY pay...     for the BBC (and other PSB channels).

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/oct/12/sky-bbc-local-radio-transmission-fee...

suggests..  " Sky could soften cuts to BBC 'by waiving transmission fees'BBC says it would save £50m over five years if BSkyB waived payments for broadcasting its channels "  

perhaps those using SKY cards to see SKY TV in the UK should prove they have a valid TV licence.

It can't be beyond the new technlogy to say that those watching SKY using a SKY card must have a TV licence?

i.e. Those without, should NOT have access to UK Public Service Broadcasters?

By all means, watch SKY transmissions, but.. no TV licence, no BBC One.....

Why not take it one stage further.... levy the UK TV Licence fee ON TOP OF any SKY TV subscription.. and then let the subscriber claim a refund from TV Lincencing.
