THE BBC displayed its arrogant Champagne Socialist bias once again at the question time for leading politicians in the Cambridge Union Society, where my elder brother was once president.

It shares the same pompous disregard for fairness and accountability as the EU which is why we British people, especially from the north, who are proud of our country and its people, voted for Brexit.

We resent those privileged few who believe they are better than us and are unaccountable to the many. The BBC must lose its out dated ability to levy a licence fee like a medieval tithe and be privatised.

I am registered blind and get a 50 per cent reduction, is that because the BBC assumes I can only see half of the screen? The revenue from the sale of the BBC will helping our government provide extra support for the NHS, schools, pensioners, veterans and those most needy in our society.
