More details from petition creator

As reported in the Sunday Telegraph on the 28th September 2008, Ofcom wants to bring "market forces" into the maritime and aviation communications. The RNLI will have to pay £250,000 a year, and "smaller search and rescue charities fear they may have to close". This proposal must be rejected wholeheartedly.
