It also helps not arguing it's bad because some groups are in favour of it (though you're not the one who raised this) I'm against paying for a license to watch TV, that's my stance, for the simple reason you can have a TV for more reasons than just watching broadcast TV.

You only need a licence to watch hroadcast TV. Youcan own a telly and use it to watch DVD / bluray or play console games without a licence.
