A pal of mine in the UK told me earlier today that the
standard TV licence is now UKP145

Actually £145.50.

advance.

It always was.

Can that be correct?

Absolute bargain. The Beeb has to be paid for somehow and I'd rather
that than advertising.

The BBC produces absolute ****e.

Sigh. I can't be arsed to argue with someone who "thinks" in absolutes.

*plonk*

The bit about carrying advertising for its own products is right, though,
and I'd rather it was free of adverts.

But I only listen to its radio output, so I don't contribute to its upkeep
either way.
