It had been snowing all night. So at ....
8:00 I made a snowman.
8:10 A feminist passed by and asked me why I didn't make a snow woman.
8:15 So, I made a snow woman
8:17 My feminist neighbor complained about the snow woman's voluptuous chest saying it objectified snow women everywhere
8:20 The gay couple living nearby threw a hissy fit and moaned it could have been two snowmen instead
8:22 The transgender person asked why I didn't just make one snow person with detachable parts
8:25 The vegans at the end of the lane complained about the carrot nose, as veggies are food and not to decorate snow figures with.
8:28 I am being called a racist because the snow couple is white..
8:31 The Muslim gent across the road demands the snow woman wear a burqa
8:40 The Police arrive saying someone has been offended
8:42 The feminist neighbour complained again that the broomstick of the snow woman needs to be removed because it depicted women in a domestic role
8:43 The Government equalities officer arrived and threatened me with eviction
8:45 TV news crew from the BBC shows up. I am asked if I know the difference between snowmen and snow-women? I reply, "Snowballs" and am called a sexist.
9:00 I'm on the News as a suspected terrorist, racist, homophobic sensibility offender bent on stirring up trouble during difficult weather.
9:10 I am asked if I have any accomplices... My children are taken by social services
9:29 Far left protesters offended by everything are marching down the street demanding for me to be beheaded
Moral: There is no moral to this story. It's just the world in which we live today and it's going to get worse.

It’s called the TV licence but actually it’s a BBC licence and applies to anything they do be it TV, radio or I player

Well an increasing amount is being used at behest of the Tory government to provide free TV licences to folk over 75.
Aye, an he's also a very lucky chap being able to sit on a sofa next to the gorgeous Susanna Reid

As far as I’m aware the other 75’s have had free TV licences for quite some time over several governments of varying political persuasions, I’m not convinced you can blame free TV licences for the over 75’s on the Tory’s,

Yes and I saw something saying that it is coming to an end soon. And they need to come up with an idea what to do next.

Very good. What happened to our country. Where most people are scared to voice their opinion in fear of being branded by the left. Very sad.

Not so long ago anyone who was racist, homophobic, sexist, or 'hating' was considered a bad person. Now all these attitudes or emotions are crimes. Seems now we have to be perfect or we get thrown into jail.
I've yet to meet the perfect person
, best hope there is plenty of space when they throw us all in together Will NIAB TAG members be assigned a separate wing?

No, it doesn't apply to radio. I went for quite a few years without a TV in the late 1990's and therefore never had a licence. They sent me pestering letters which asked questions about a TV but never once asked if I listened to BBC radio, which I did, every day. In the early 1990's I lived in a hamlet which was in a 'basin'. The only TV reception that could be gained was by running a scaffolding pole out of the top of an oak tree 100 yards from the house and a length of cable to my cottage. I did pay for a licence. My neighbour was not connected up and although she had a TV she only ever watched videos on it. She too listened to the radio and also did not require a TV licence. This was all pre I-player

You are correct ( as I am of that age ) The bbc is launching a " consultation " on what to do next to raise more revenue. This is to finance more leftie propaganda I am sure.!!!!

It appears some on here are watching the bbc with the intention of being upset or outraged. How are you any different from the minority who’s upset/outrage you find offensive

I like BBC four, tv lots of interesting programmes often presented by the lovely Alice Roberts so well worth the license fee.
I mostly watch Quest & the Travel channel.
UK gold is good too especially "Yesterday" but BBC is the largest share holder.
I used to like radio 4 but complely taken over by the extreme left now, far worse than the BBC tv. Wish I could listen to LBC in the tractor.
