Edmonds begins TV licence boycott
« on: September 13, 2008, 23:34 »
Presenter Noel Edmonds has stopped paying his TV licence fee as he does not like the BBC's "threatening" manner towards those who evade the charge.

Good on him!  With his money, he should employ a bouncer to remove any Capita (nu-Labour's private TV Licence gestapo) employee from his property when they call around with their false detection equipment.

We recently had an empty property that had to be sold and the TV license people kept sending letters twice a week demanding payment.  Some of the letters were very threatening and they would not accept there was no TV equipment in the house.
