Have you seen the Observer today?

Dear
John
,

Dominic Cummings and Rupert Murdoch want to dismantle our BBC - and we're in the Observer today ([link removed]) saying we want to stop them!

If you're frustrated with the BBC, you're not alone. Many of us feel the same way.

But what's the solution?

Instead of letting the BBC be murdered by Murdoch, let's make it BETTER - fully independent of government, more diverse, representative and accountable to US, the people.

Add your name to the petition to Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden to call for a BBC that works for all of us:

The BBC is a national treasure, a public service we want to be proud of, with world class programmes and services. But the government is meddling in it and attacking it - with funding cuts of 30% since 2010.

Would you miss not having Planet Earth? Eastenders? Match of the Day? Local radio? Doctor Who? Radio 1? CBeebies?

That's what's at stake with the government's attacks on our BBC right now.

And if we don’t defend our BBC, we’ll end up with nothing but Facebook and a Fox News style media, which will damage our democracy and hand yet more power to billionaire moguls.

We've been working closely with media reform campaigners to get the demands right for this campaign. We're really happy to say that this petition is backed by the New Weather Institute, CLASS, Compass and the Media Reform Coalition.

SIGN NOW to defend our BBC - and make it BETTER.

This has been a divisive campaign, but we're confident that this is the right thing to do.

A publicly-funded broadcaster is essential for a healthy democracy, and its destruction is just what Rupert Murdoch and his friends want.

Let's fix our BBC, make it work for us, and keep it around for future generations.

Solidarity,

Cat, Pascale, Chris, Alice and Ellen - the We Own It team

PS If you're in London tomorrow, join us for the official campaign launch at 9am outside BBC Broadcasting House, Portland Place, W1A 1AA ([link removed])

If you can't come along, don't forget to show Dominic Cummings we won't let him whack our BBC. Sign and share the petition today! ([link removed])
