Many programmes from the BBC, and others, have a left-wards bias. Many of the staff are recruited via the Guardian as that is the only newspaper they will use to advertise vacancies - and that is well know for its left leaning policies. Programmes like Quaetion Time are supposed to have audiences selected to be 'neutral' but yopu only have to watch the reaction of Dimbleby and a significant section of the audience to know there is a clear bias - especially if a Tory minister or a UKIP person makes a statement that is, to them, perfectly valid but not liked by the audience. Then compare that with the reaction to a Labour politician's statement and the audiences' reaction to them.

MikeB:
You are clearly biased against the centre and right views.
The survey you quote was not about any bias but which format news broadcasts people prefered to watch - and it suggested that more were dissatisfied with all the 'main' services.
Try taking an impartial scietific look at what is offered and you will see that all news, whether broadcast or printed, has some bias one way or another. The point about the BBC is that their Charter requires them to not only be impartial but seen to be so - and they are failing in that.

A full post code is needed to narrow down the variables that can affect reception.The partial you have given covers many square miles and much can change across such a large area.

A full post code is needed in these circumstances as what affects one road or house may not affect others nearby.

It *is* about opinions. Learn to accept that many people do not agree with you.
End of discussion.

If you cannot accept that others have a different view there is no point in continuing the 'discussion'.

From the figures you have now given, it rather looks as if you have a problem with your aerial system. I'm assuming you do not live in a flat with a shared communal aerial.
If that is so, then check all the leads feeding the TV as far back towards the aerial as you can, not forgeting to check that any aerial amplifier or powered splitter is actually working properly - just having the indicator light on does not necessarily mean it is working!
If you do not find any cabling problems then it could mean you need any aerial contractor to examine and test the aerial. It would cost, so it's your choice.
