I fully support the strike.  If it does one thing it will highlight the issue and make people aware.  Many people have no idea the funding issue the BBC has right now.  The BBC can't ask for funding help in a cost of living crisis. It would look bad.  This way it gets the message out there.

Striking gets the message out there, yes. But it won't stop the cuts or achieve anything else. The license fee is currently frozen and it's not going to be unfrozen. If the areas in local radio and news are not cut, other parts of the BBC will need to be cut, or whole channels or radio stations shut instead. Or cuts to drama and entertainment. 
The BBC has no more money. Albeit more people probably care about cuts to local radio and regional news than closing the UK news channel.
