I know is hard to believe this government passing more and more laws to make your life harder
For example you will lose your licence if u failing to wear a seatbelt , using a mobile phone while driving, failure to obey traffic lights or Failure to give proper left or right change of direction signal. it's crazy and could have a serious impact on your everyday life

The T.V license fee goes to the BBC, no advertising = no revenue, other channels depend on advertising.

You get penalty points if you speed, you also have to pay a fine. If you rack up a lot of points, you will be taken to court.

A license for tv?

Yh every household that buy's and owns a TV you have to pay a yearly license to have that tv in your home.

Wow, I didn't know British government was such a big brother, nanny state. some of these laws are borderline dictatorship and not democratic. know I can see why American citizens keep their government on check.

imagine American being told to have a license for TV.

This is a british empire. If you are black you need to have a blue licence. If you are white british. You need to have green licence. Soon.. Even in the home you put guarters on the electricity meters in order to have electricity. Life sucks over there...
