Snoopy: you say "pay a licence fee for" what is the licence for?

we have free to air TV of which there are about 10 channels and then there is paid TV which is about FROM $20 per month and owned by Murdoch I think??? and there are hundreds of channels, but licences I havent heard of.

I remember years and years ago in NZ people had to pay a licence for radio.

Snoopy: I just finished watching the whole thing. He's no idiot that's clear. Not many people could sit there for an hour and take fiery question after fiery question. He did make some points that even some in the audience recognized as legitimate (even if they disagreed with his remedy).

His appearance was necessary as the BNP has gained strength and it's time to put them in the public eye for scrutiny. Only face to face encounters such as Question Time could provide the kind of exposure and tough questioning that was witnessed on the program.

What caught me was the fact that Griffin was talking about some of the very same issues that we face here in the States. The UK had better deal effectively with it's immigration problems or soon enough it will get out of hand and become uncontrollable. Perhaps it's already too late for that. From some reports I've seen, London has some serious problems with some in the Islamic community. Such problems can't long be ignored.

I wonder if Iran has an immigration problem?

Artful Dodger:   Perhaps Iran doesn't have an immigration problem because it has a brutality problem.
