whippet 99 2,613 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 people are full of it What you mean mate? i tell you mate , if you want to watch terrestrial television you need a license if you drive a car you need a license if you fish commercial waters you need rod licenses fail to not have a license for any of these is an offence. its a fact of life and i think half the people who dont pay there tv license , would probably drive a car with out a license or no insurance. i for one wouldnt want to expect an un welcome guest to the door for any reason , what message are we sending out to our kids everyone breaks the law one way or another , best one yet (keep your blinds shut) ffs , people want to get in the real world i hate paying council tax but i got no choice its called living Nice life you live then mate crack on Pay a fishing licence for a public waterway????? Really? You'd pay a tax on air if they told you it's the done thing I pay tax, car insurance, have a licence for driving, a licence to shoot, a licence to do CP, a licence to do the doors, so I do 'pay my way' but a tv licence is taking the piss. Would you pay a licence to read books? Exactly the same thing. funny that you pay for all your licenses except tv, we have to pay for our shite to be flushed aswell, do you not think this is taking the piss. you will need a licence to wipe your ass soon , get use to it because it aint going to get any better. the big man on the door dont pay his tv license , what a bruiser The small man on the door has got a brain Ok mush I'll get used to it and take whatever they send my way. Then moan about it on here. Then don't do anything about it anyway. Then moan some more and send myself to an early grave through stress because I didn't pay a licence to use my eyes whats that word for 99% of the people in the uk sheeple fair comment Am not having a go at you or trying to put anyone down at all, but what we need is every one to stand up and say NO f**k you to the BBC?TVL/government...... look at the mess we are in at the min, and the whole uk me and all some times just like to twist on about things, it relay fucks me off that people just want to PUT UP AND SHUT UP, but then they twist on about it! im surprised your a donator lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PlasticJock 539 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Scot I must say you surprise me over the course of our conversations - you're obviously intelligent, and understand some of the s**t that we put up with, also having been fcuked over by the plod a few times I thought you'd have a different viewpoint on things? Not that my way is the right way, but I thought you'd be more open to ignoring pointless things Quote Link to post Share on other sites

graham4877 1,181 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Ok I get what you Lads are saying, and I do agree to a certain degree. But let's look at this way , a tv liscence is 146 quid or something. Ok you say they can't do f**k all about it then why did pjs wife get fined a grand ? And I'm guessing she wasn't the only one. So I get hit with a grand fine , for the sake of hundred odd quid , how pissed off would you feel then? I'm also guessing of you don't pay it they will jail you. Dont take offense to this lads, but only an idiot would go to jail for 140 or someone who hasnt been locked u before. Despite the stories you hear about it being a holiday camp with TVs and play stations, which is utter shit lol mate its always about what you say when they come to the door, They have no powers of entry, you work it out, a lot of people drop them self in the shit, now i'm not saying that is what went off with the said woman , but i know a few who have not help them selfs , just look at that lad off facebook with the photo of the hare and him and the dog, he handed him self over on a plate because of his own stupidity! Ssd for who would go to jail for £150 well me i will why because i have the f*****g right to say no f**k off i am not paying for something that i don't use or want, after all they send it out free to air, now look at sky if you want it you have to pay for it you don't pay you don't get it ! end of the day its up to you to find out about how they work what they can and can't do read up about it , its all on a site out their! oh and i don't mean the BBCs site! after you have looked at everything your a man and its up to you, me i have never paid and never will pay!

The rest are mostly locked up now for a very long time, and you wouldn't believe what for Saying that I've always been a rebel, resented authority for no particular reason. I'm probably just a cnut Quote Link to post Share on other sites
