We're Back!

We haven't gone away you know.  We've always been here, but we've been busy with Operation Target, and now we're back.  We've had some good responses from local communities, and we have a lot to report.  We also see that the government have given their usual predictable and banal response to the petition.  In the event, we decided not to write to the DCMS, as we realised that would be a waste of time - but we will be giving them our response to their response.

We also note that the petition sign-ups have slowed down somewhat, so further work will be required in that regard.  Time to step-up a gear.

TARGET 20,000

THE NEW TARGET IS 20,000 SIGNATURES

Thank you very much for the support with our Campaign To Abolish The BBC, and thank you for all your support with the petition.

We don't have time for anything more than a short post as we all have regular work and also still have a large mass mailing to finish off for the campaign.

The petition is now at 10,000 signatures, which means a response from the government is required. We fully expect that the response will be dismissive, derisory, boilerplate rubbish. We will however be contacting the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport, the department we believe responsible for this, to outline the kind of response that would be helpful within the realpolitical parameters that exist at present. We hope they take some notice of us, but we don't hold out hope.

The target is now 20,000 signatures - a tall order, but let's see how near we can run!

Thanks again!
