Come to Germany and you'll see how enormously grateful I am for the BBC.
Whatever do you have in mind, that could be even comparable to them?

That's fine if you want to listen to Globalist Left-wing propaganda
and nothing else. Personally I can't bear it.


I sympathise.
In continental Europe on FM the only classical music radio was
re-broadcasts for Radio 3 concerts and nothing in German.

You must be joking. When I was living in Germany ISTR there was no
shortage of classical music on both TV and radio. De Radio Kultur did
a lot of it (that's the only station name I can remember as it was a
good few years ago).

I used to listen on longwave after the demise of the British forces'
BFBS. You can't think what a great change podcasts and streeams have
made to my listening.


Indeed

Yes indeed, but *nothing* the BBC has to offer, I'm sorry to say.

in fashion, only to vulgarise it and who caricature every cause they serve,
