The BBC is still ignoring us and pretending that their bloated mobile site is an acceptable replacement for a functional service. I am currently reaching out to their technical leads to demand they explain why they chose to strip away our access without warning.

The BBC bureaucrats thought they could bury this issue in the dark, but the momentum we have built proves they were dead wrong. Your relentless pressure is forcing them to see that we will not accept their bloated and broken mobile site.
