BBC can throw me in jail – I won’t give them a penny

‘I have tried all my life to be an upstanding citizen, obeying rules. But the BBC enforcers can throw me in jail. My money was too hardearned to give the broadcaster one penny to waste. Let’s hope enough of us have the guts and backbone to fight this shameful outfit.’

Ann James, 82, Cornwall ‘The BBC continues to increase the six and seven figure salaries of already overpaid “talent” – making paying this the responsibility of pensioners. We do not deserve to have enforcers on our doorsteps threatening us. If they come, we’ll politely say: “No, thank you.”’

Marion Bailey, 81, West Somerset ‘The BBC has gone back on a promise. The problem is the broadcaster likes to spend the £3.5 billion it gets from licence fees each year like water. Rather than wasting cash on non-jobs and gameshow prizes, it should budget more carefully.’ Christopher Roberts, 80,

Northampton ‘The BBC has lost its independence and become a spokesman for “woke”. We want unbiased reporting and this is not what we get. So it can fine me £1,000 or throw me in jail – with three square meals a day and free TV.’

Alan Corbett, 80,

Derby ‘I have informed the BBC that I will not be paying for the rubbish it spews out or for the ridiculous salaries paid to morons. So far no one has even bothered to reply. Bring it on. If enough stand up to this bully it will be interesting.’ Mike Hills, 77, St Neots, Cambridgeshire

‘My plan is to invite any “customer care” enforcer who knocks on the door to come in for a chat. I will offer them a cup of tea – my own caring side – and tell them I intend to record our conversation. I wonder what they will say?’

Chris Dobbins, 79, Norwich
