Mr Fogle said he was "disappointed" in the decision, arguing: "Let's not penalise those who most value the BBC".

The BBC has said The Change to free licences was "the fairest outcome".

In a message Mr Fogle said he thought the BBC was "one of The Greatest institutions in The World ".

"But I Am disappointed in the recent announcement on the abolition of free licences to the over-75s," he said.

"I don't entirely blame the BBC. I think the government forced their hand. "

In 2015, as part of the licence fee settlement.

It would have Cost £745m by 2021/22, a fifth of the BBC's budget, and would have resulted in "unprecedented closures", The Corporation said.

Mr Fogle said his late grandparents "loved the BBC" and "would have been lost without it in their twilight years".

He said: "We owe it to those over-75s who have served their country in The Armed forces, the NHS, The Fire service etc.

"I think society is in danger of losing its moral compass. "

He said donating his salary was "the least I can do for those over 75, an often neglected sector of society".

The size of his salary and donation are not known.
