the same BBC who fine and imprison people, mainly, poor, working class, female people, who don't pay for it's services even if they only want to watch ITV or SKY? Who was the last person fined or imprisoned for eating at Burger King while not having a McDonalds licence? The BBC is authoritarian, sick and institutionally racist. It's last Director General called it 'hideously white.'
Come off it, Jeb, it's hardly the BBC who "locks people up and fines them" is it? It's the police and the courts.
And its hardly the BBC which has made these rules, its the government.
Whatever the BBC's faults, and they are legion, surely you must see the need for a non-commercial broadcaster so we're not forced to choose between the likes of Fox News and Big Brother's 100 Top Greatest Singles Countdown all the time?
All this juvenile knee-jerk anti-BBC stuff is tiresome. You'd soon whinge if our ENTIRE media was owned by three millionaires, wouldn't you?
