I just posted this in The Arms but figured that this might be more appropriate - NOT spamming honest board guides, perhaps someone could close the original in the Arms if you think it's necessary
The BBC is about to ax the Ouch! Podcast - please see below a message posted on another forum I go in from the person campaigning to stop it
For those of you that haven't heard Yes! the BBC are STILL planning to shelve the Ouch podcast!
I know there are many of us on this site who are affected by disability in some way, and and there are very few 'divertissiments' So lets not loose one of the precious few...
Part of the BBC disability website 'OUCH!', this podcast is downloaded each month by thousands of disabled and non-disabled people from the UK, and indeed the world. Presented by Liz Carr and Mat Fraser, it's irreverent, it's cutting edge, it's funny, and it's not like anything else.

We still need more signatures by Monday if we're to save the Ouch! podcast... we're handing it into a meeting of media bigwigs who are part of the Broadcasters and Creative Industries Disability Network
We've hit 300 but I want 1,000 so we can give them the message that we want this podcast to stay!
Its only a two second clicker, so pretty please...
I don't know what the rules are, if any, about links/posts petitions like this - but it would be great if you would join us in the campaign to get the BBC to re-think.
The petition is nearing 800 mark and it would be great if MSEers could take it over the 1000 mark
Thanks in advance if you do, and apologies if this contravenes any rules and regs
