I haven't paid the TV licence fee since the 1960s so what?

Pensioner fined for rebellion over TV licence

A pensioner who refused to pay his television licence fee for six years in protest over his claim that the BBC is "biased" in its reporting has been fined £240.


Even allowing for being "ordered to pay £60 costs and £15 victims' surcharge", he is in profit. Then there is the cost of the prosecution to be taken into account.

It's time for this to be consigned to history. A viewing tax indeed!
