Original Note:
It is inaccurate to describe the BBC as 'government-funded'. For the year 2021-22, "71% of [BBC funding] came from the licence fee revenues. The remaining 29%... came from commercial and other activities..." https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-8101/#:~:text=The%20licence%20fee%20accounted%20for,%2C%20royalties%20and%20rental%20income)
