Default Lenny Henry backs TV diversity or we'll boycott BBC licence fee
[Lenny Henry campaign: back TV diversity or we'll boycott licence fee
Actor launches petition and email push
lobbying culture minister Ed Vaizey
to change the law on ethnic minority workers]

http://www.theguardian.com/media/201...ty-licence-fee
Video on above link



"Campaigners say that if nothing is done by broadcasters and the government and "diversity continues to be a talking shop" they will consider boycotting the licence fee."

Go Ahead I am sure the BBC will love you
