If the BBC has to pay a fine of three million-?

Question

who gets the money? Does this mean that the standard of programmes get even worse, because they have taken three million out of lisence payers money? Or, is this government money that is denied the BBC? I don't understand.

Answer 1

Of course it comes out of the the proceeds of one of the only remaining legalised protection rackets(aka "TV Licence"), and I guess it goes to the Government .. and then, no doubt, the BBC will plead poverty and increases the amount of money they steal from us all ..
