Apparently one in nine of all criminal cases in the magistrates courts are for TV licence non-payment. Basically our courts are being used for Crapita to collect money using menaces.
70 people a year are sent to prison for not paying their TV licence.
The Tories want to decriminalise television watching.
Let's hope it happens.
