Channel 4 does not cost the public any money. It’s profitable. It supports an independent TV production industry across the UK. It nurtures new talent. It invests in investigative & foreign journalism like no other. C4 is an asset to the UK. There is no good reason to privatise.

Artists please stop doing this. You're setting impossible standards for your peers who want a work-life balance, creating an unsustainable and unhealthy schedule for yourself, and allowing companies to continue to underbid projects.

Boris Johnson announces 1.25% rise in National Insurance. That means millionaire landlords pay nothing more, businesses pay nothing more, pensioners taking home cash from assets pay nothing… but a young person with no savings, no assets and stagnant wages is forced to pay £££s.
