Every household that has a TV, regardless of their use of the BBC. I don't know why people who essentially use a TV as a monitor for games consoles need to pay it.

True. I personally do (and I don't currently own a TV!) but I think non-payment is going to become a significant enough issue within the period of this parliament that we will likely see an end to the licence fee shortly after the 2030 election if not sooner.
