Stop the funding cuts to Gaelic TV

The Issue

Gaelic TV is essential not only for Gaelic speakers but for all Scots who enjoy sport and cultural programmes. The Chancellor's decision to cut funding to BBC Alba will affect not only those who rely on Gaelic medium TV but all of us who use the station for sport. At a time when the "Outlander effect" is increasing interest in the Gaelic language and the broadcaster, we ask that funding is restored to at least 2015 levels Please sign this petition to help save Gaelic TV.
