What about mobiles & laptops?

Do mobiles & laptops need TV licences?

Also, will a mobile or laptop need a extra TV licence for each location, whenever it's away from home not using just its internal battery and antenna? (eg. When using a mains or car adaptor?)

What about laptops using Wi-Fi eg. in coffee shops, trains & airport lounges?

It's time to scrap this silly unfair "Poll Tax" and the whole unnecessary TV tax collection industry.

The BBC should be supported from general taxation and be given clear responsibilities for true "public service" broadcasting.

The BBC's coverage of news & current affairs shows how little real independence it has of government policy.
