Original Note:
The BBC is state funded through the "TV licence" tax: In January 2006, the ONS changed the classification of the licence fee from a service charge to a tax." The House of Commons Library described the licence fee as a hypothecated tax. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_licensing_in_the_United_Kingdom
