Doesn't look good for the free TV licence does it?

Scrap:

Foreign aid
All payments to immigrants
BBC
HS2

Then clamp down on benefits by stopping payments to anyone who refuses a job for which they're physically able to do.

Unless you get pension credit, the free licence for over 75s ceases in August.

We borrowed a book from Amazon Prime (free Kindle version).  It is called BBC - Brainwashing Britain by David Sedgwic. 

I made another complaint yesterday about the rudeness of Naga Munchetty and received an acknowledgment.  Most of the interviewers are so rude and aggressive.  Rita Chakrabatti (spelling?) is an exception and conducts interviews in the afternoon with politeness.

My friend has complained about Laura Kuenssberg, and her bias and rudeness.  I've been avoiding serious stuff on the tv lately, I let my OH grumble about it instead. 🙄
