What is the justification for raising the licence fee in a recession when inflation is close to zero?
This isn't about whether the fee is justified or whether the BBC should exist* but why it needs to receive yet more funds when their costs shouldn't be rising.
* I'd say there might be a justification for a few services that commercial competitors would never match (BBC Radio 3, 4 & the World Service) but most of it is superfluous.
Nope - it was ridicule

The justification is "'cos we can and no-one's got the balls to stop us: so pay up peasant - or else!"
'cause NuLABZanuPDF are actually cooking the books and inflation is really running at 10% a year. Keep up.
"The justification is "'cos we can and no-one's got the balls to stop us: so pay up peasant - or else!""
And unlike expense-swilling MPs, we can't vote 'em out!
Because at the top there will be a bunch of people insisting that their remuneration is paltry compared to that of their counterparts in the private sector and they should have a massive pay rise to compensate.
Just like everywhere else in the public sector...
