“Ninety per cent of the population enjoys free-to-air television in
Ireland , whether this is from RTÉ or TV3. Many of these also enjoy watching British channels such as the BBC at no extra cost, but this could soon end if the Broadcasting Bill becomes law.“Thanks to the Bill, once the final analogue signals are switched off in a few years, those wishing to use free-to-air television will only be able to receive four Irish channels.
Basically Labour are saying that people should have the right to steal TV.
Free to air does not mean free. BBC is free to air in the
Kathleen O’Meara also said it It “makes a mockery of the potential of digital television” But it is not. It is making a mockery of Irish politics. That a party is saying people should be allowed to steel.

maybe it is in the interpretation but I dont see ’steeling’ at all. so are you saying people who receive bbc by the nature of their location here should contact bbc and offer to pay? after all you are saying it is theft. i’d say this post is grasping at anti labour straws. i dont see anywhere labour saying people have the right to steal tv other than your interpretation.

Would you consider hot wireing a sky box steeling? i.e. getting a signal that is not supposed to be yours. This is the exact same thing. The fact that it involves pointing an aerial at Wales and not chipping a box does not make a difference.
Isn’t that the socialist policy. Steal from those who have and give to those who were too lazy to get their house in order.
i mention someone who lives in a location where they pick up the signal and you start talking about hotwiring sky boxes. that is some jump you made by yourself there and nothing to do with anything I said
