Just been into town and walking down the hard shoulder of the motorway were two scruffy looking types they looked like they got out of a lorry. They are all over the place, they closed part of the A1 because of them climbing from a lorry tother week.

I read today that yer bbc has been caught out again being 'deceptive with the truth'  tinyurl.com/or6uvqhAnyhow, it seems that all of these mega rich media luvvies oft employed on vast salaries by the bbc, for some strange reason don't want the bbc to be reformed and have it's license reviewed! So they all signed a letter telling the government to keep it's hands off this wonderful organisation that pays them these vast salaries. Errrr.......as you would.  Yer beeb then implies that this letter had nowt to do with them, it was all the idea of these mega rich signatories to send it. Unfortunately for the beeb, this came as a surprise to Sir David Attenborough, who said that this letter was given to him by a top bbc fella who asked him to sign it. Turns out that all the others did the same 'cos the letter was drafted by this bbc fella. tinyurl.com/no9g5tn
As I once read somewhere "If you don't tell the truth, you can be sure that some rotten bastard will tell it for you"  |

It depends how much the tax for the BBC is going to be. £145.50 is the price a year now, I just hope its nowhere near that price.

I just hope its nowhere near that price. Nob how goddamned miserable can you get?  I pay £12.12 every month by D/Debit and I believe there isn't a better deal going anywhere in broadcasting. That works out at roughly 40p a day and even if I only watch news progs that works out at less than 20p an hour. I think I'd even pay more to get read of programme interruptions by adverts, wouldn't everybody? Nob what is your problem with that value for money?  |

]Peter, you were born with a silver spoon up your arse, that money a year is a lot to us plebs. Do you think I want to pay £12.12 to watch eastenders. nob I might have been born with a silver spoon up my arse but my inheritance has just dwindled away. Rumour has it that you, yourself are not counting pennies so what is your problem signing a direct debit agreement for the almighty sum of £12.12 a month. If £12.12 per month is too much for you to afford nob how the hell can you buy on offer Scotch from your supermarket. I know the money isn't the problem nob but your reaction to authority telling you what to do has always been a bee in your bonnet and that doesn't make you a rebel. To be a rebel you have to rebel against something specific and authority in general isn't specific.  |

£12.12 a month is for nothing.I pay that for 50 grams of my pipe tobacco and that is enough fo only 7 days
If that amount of cash is a millstone to anybody,perhaps they should get out more--or should that be stay in more !
