I thought I was the only barnpot wishing mr murdochs billions were found to be printed with invisible ink.If ever you wanted to see a government (or should that read the civil service) exposing itself as a self funding unit then look no further at the blatant bribery (thats MY OPINION by the way not this forums), that has taken place over the years, fron its conception (BSKY<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite6" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":cool:" /> to its current format. Talk about the rich getting richer. Now I'm no commie, I like to make a buck or 2 myself, but unfortunately I do Have a consiounse as well. I agree totally with your sentiments, its about as blatant as a JFK magic bullet. Theres so much back slapping and self indulgency in the government (whoever is in at the time). Becoming a senior politician must be like winning the lottery is to the rest of us mere mortals, except there chances are considerably better i.e. 1 in 1 chance!!!!!!!!!!!I will never understand how, particularly today, when the BBC have now got a further extension, we can be forced to pay for a license to watch a company that advertises its own programming, with also so much "product placement" its criminal, (that doesn't include the £4000 of our money that the BBC is paying the burglar reference Tony Martin the Farmer). With ITV desperately hanging on with its advertising (in my opinion the only relatively honest broadcaster), and then if you want SKY, you need to pay an EXTORTIANATE subscription fee, as well as further billing for box office films and sporting events, and to rub salt in the wounds, they also take advertisement breaks that in 1 hour broadcasting would probably split 60/40 in favour of adverts.I would love to see a MINISTER big enough to bloody Murdochs nose (politically of course) and sort out this mess that has purely become Skys captive audience, which ever way you look at it.Sorry for the rant.</blockquote>
