Shoulder Chip

Why should I pay £131.50 per annum to listen to adverts for Ch4 Big Brother programme, which costs me nothing to watch.
Why is an annual licence not annual but 11 months plus remainder of the month when you first buy it. With computers now days it can't be difficult to just add 365.25 days to the date of purchase.
Why is the Government so interested in passing a Broadcasting Act, less than three years after the second world war, while rationing is still happening?

I'll tell you why. They are out to fuck you.

I'm sure that the TV license could be incorporated into an identity card with some success, possibly with automated court summons, or even jail sentence if the required sum is not received at the appropriate time.

I think a baseball bat can be incorporated into pastarogue(no underscore) arse with some success. I'm a bit old fashioned so I think it should be done manually.
