    And yet people still evade the licence fee.

    If they do not need a BBC TV Licence which in turn subsidises what YOU like why shouldn't they "evade"?

    I have never said that they should, I have, however, maintained that if you watch television you should pay for the privilege like the vast majority of the population.

    I watch television all the time but it doesn't mean I'm breaking the law, that selfish mindset is down to the pro-BBC people.

    Also you'll find opinion poll after opinion poll shows the majority of people are for the BBC TV Licence being abolished which in turn means you "people" would hopefully have to pay for the BBC via a voluntary subscription :)

    Why should we pay for those who can't be bothered to get a licence

    You aren't paying for that, if you were the BBC wouldn't be wasting hundreds of millions each year like the £12 million for taxi's alone!

    , or are so far up themselves that they pretend to be legal warriors, with so little clue about how it all works. These are the same people who invade courtrooms and disrupt proceeding's with shouting at District Judges, playing mythical legal games, by pretending to not know their own names.

    I love how the pro BBC people promote it like its some vital service to this country when its nothing more than a biased left-wing broadcaster.
