I'm not paying to watch commercials. The ITV, Channel 4, and Channel 5 
already have adverts. Allowing the BBC to do so will make them no 
different so they might as well close it down. The BBC has to become a 
voluntary subscription service and if they don't put an end to the 
degenerate woke crap and stop attacking heterosexual women and men and 
masculinity them people will not subscribe to it.

The BBC morons tried it on Doctor Who once during Matt Smith's tenure 
and got savaged by people complaining.
