The Telegraph (Boris Johnson's 'real boss', © Dominic Cummings) tells us that the BBC licence fee is set to remain frozen at £159 for up to two years "in a bid to ease Britain’s cost of living crisis."
The paper's sources said the new deal, to run from 2022 to 2027, had to be "firm but fair,” one adding: “Now is not the time to be whacking up the amount households have to pay.” (A frozen deal would fit with those who claim Boris might go to the country in 2023...). So far there's no sign of Government calls to Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney to join in this emerging campaign to keep the cost of living under control.
It's suggested the final years of the deal would allow rises in line with Consumer Price Inflation.
