Jackboots hit South London for Halloween
October 29, 2008
The BBC’s brownshirt enforcers, TV Licensing, will be active in South London this Halloween reports the South London Press.
TV Licensing spokeswoman Joanna Pearce said: “TV Licensing has a duty to enforce the licence fee on behalf of the honest majority who pay, which is why we’ll be visiting cheats in South London this Hallowe’en.
Notice how those who don’t pay the BBC tax are referred to as “cheats”. Wheras the corporation that forces all TV owners to pay it – whether they watch the BBC or not – as well as utilising an army of strongarm enforcers is supposedly above board.
Other channels must compete for funds on the open market and moreover be accountable to those sources of funds. It is the BBC that cheats by electing instead to compel the public to finance it’s nonsense at risk of imprisonment.
“We would always prefer people to buy a licence than be haunted by the spectre of a £1,000 fine.”
Not as haunted as the beeb would be of a mass boycott of their license fee.
