We also haven't had a licence for several years. To illustrate how internet TV is these days, not that I'd watch the dross, but episodes of Love Island are on ITV.com very soon after going out 'live'.
Be careful of 'live streams' on Youtube though, these might be a grey area.

Our local radio station gave air time to an author of children’s books aimed at 3-8 year old about how being a vegan is kind to animals . It states that eating animals and animals products hurt the cute animals . I was shouting at the radio. To be fair to the presenter she did question the author on how she was using emotional blackmail on three year olds . The book is called “vivi the vegan superhero” in case you all want to buy it. I tried to call the show to say how happy my fathers’ pet chickens were and how much they enjoyed the eggs.....

If only we paid some of our hard earned money to an organisation that actually counter acted the BBC bias !?!
......... oh wait, we do.
The BBC and AHDB are both compulsory funded............ and it appears farmers are not keen on either.

I've just paid for a year, so sorry I can't join in. I think the BBC should be pay to view because it will make it more money and be a better service.
I wouldn't have a problem with them if they sacked dan snow and Chris packham

Not paying the TV licence won't do any good, due to being spread over the 12 months renewal period,
Would it not be best to all roll up at your local BBC broadcasting building in your new Fendt, john Deere, and 4x4 vehicles and demonstrate on a different time each week, Least you would get publicity there and then, rather than name in paper for not paying tv licence,
Oh and for christ sake can you not find the oldest dirtiest clapped out vehicle to take, the feck in twin beacon boys do nothing for the industry

Clive - does Enteric Fermentation not just mean livestock rumination?

They don’t realise that if we didn’t eat animal products there wouldn’t be any animals, by eating animal products the animals have a life - it’s our job to make that life as good as we can for them.

The BBC isn't biased.
A BBC journalist starts with a blank piece of paper. What goes on that paper, and becomes the script, is influenced by whoever has their ear from the outside world.
This makes the BBC markedly different from commercial TV and most print media, where the journalist starts with a piece of paper already sullied by the owners personal agenda.
It is the abject failure of UK ag to have the ear of the BBC that is the problem, not the BBC itself.
I was interviewed by BBC local radio earlier this week, and detected no bias in the style of the interview or the resultant broadcast.
I trust that no-one withholding their licence fee listens to BBC radio. For me this alone, most notably the World Service and 5live, justifies the licence fee.

I've said this before, the BBC is a bloated, inept and heavily biased organisation and I resent paying for their dross. I view anyone taking their shilling as being highly suspect. You lot all think Adam Henson is some kind of messiah: I can't watch the bilge and if you ask me the entire UK ag industry should refuse to cooperate with the BBC in any way. Work with their competitors, ITV or Channel 4 but avoid the BBC like the plague. Don't return their calls, don't agree to feature on their programs, don't take part in interviews. They agenda is firmly set against the industry.
The TV licence fee should be scrapped and the BBC should offer a monthly or yearly subscription service and scramble their bilge- I wouldn't watch it no matter how cheap the fee was and the days of programmed TV are long gone.
