    The TV police come out of your TV like the chick from the Ring and confiscate your bongbucks unless you pay your TV license. They're vulnerable to flashlights and gunfire but both guns and flashlights are illegal in the UK.

      The worst aspects of UK life never were EU prerogatives anyway. The EU has no control over immigration policies for instance. They only oblige, due to human rights bullshit drivel, that you examine asylum demands from people coming from war zones. But A) there's only that many war zones in the world, B) a EU MS can freely decide which countries deserve to be included in the asylum seeking eligible list, C) you only have to consider their application, you're not obliged to grant it and D) it's only mandatory for the first EU MS where migrants set foot on, which the UK never really is.
      All the pajeets they took through family reunion laws, working invitations and student visas are the result of domestic policies. It never was the EU, except for the free flow of white euro migrants, that worked both ways. Now they got rid of poles and Johnson increased pajeet visa numbers because they need migrants apparently.

          Which is a moot point because the UK had the same human rights bullshit laws prior to joining the EU and retain them after joining the EU. And frankly, I don't see the UK leaving the human rights conventions any time soon. Not even Russia or Turkey have. The asylum part only impacts eastern euro countries that didn't have french copy pasted constitutions / human rights bills because they were communists. The asylum rule doesn't have an impact on western euro countries as it doesn't add anything new. If anything, it fricks over southern entry point countries like Spain, Greece and Italy by instating the "first country to set foot in" rule, although as you pointed out, can't really be proven. Now, even the UK can prove it, they can't send them back to Greece or Italy because they're out ot the EU.
          Anyway, my point is that Brexit didn't do anything good regarding immigration, it only removed the few white migrants that you had.

The Act makes a remedy for breach of a Convention right available in UK courts, without the need to go to the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) in Strasbourg.
              It's not linked to the European Union, but to the court of Strasbourg. Similar laws existed before 1998, you had internal human right bills in any case.

    It’s so bizarre how aggressive they are with TV licenses. It’s such a weird concept when you really step back and think about it as well. Imagine needing a license for a computer or phone. Seems ridiculous, yet it’s perfectly acceptable to fork over £200 a year to watch my own damn TV. I don’t even watch BBC shows.

            >Anglin was born in 1984, and grew up near Columbus, Ohio. According to both Anglin and his childhood classmates, he was liberal as a youth. He attended the Linworth Alternative Program and the Worthington Kilbourne High School from 1999 to 2003, where he was remembered as a JNCOs-wearing dreadlocked atheist vegan who often wore a hoodie with a "frick racism" patch.

    As a fenian, as much as I hate brits, the TV license is a meme and nothing at all like what yanks think it is. It's dystopian and moronic but there's actually no legal requirement to pay for a tv license. Literally the only way they can prosecute you is if you say 'i watch live TV'.

    Ways to not pay TV license:
    Tell them you don't own TV
    Tell them you don't watch TV
    Tell them you only watch netflix
    Tell them you only watch stuff you've downloaded
    Or the best one of all: close the fricking door in the goon's face when they call do the door.
    you do NOT have to pay for a tv license in the uk and the sooner it's scrapped the better. it was scrapped in australia(?) for mass non-compliance.

      It's wrong to talk about countries. It's more like the local conditions specifically. Good rule-of-thumb is, the higher the population density, the more cancerous it is.

      Just pick somewhere with not a lot of people but solid internet. It's hard to go wrong. Heck, many places with low population will straight-up subsidize you to live there, like doctors who will work in northern towns in Norway will get free apartments and huge bonuses just to be willing to practice there for a few years, or couples that move there will get massive subsidies just for moving there as an incentive to attract young people.

    Sad. America was founded by Anglos, owes what remains of its culture and traditions including its legal system and constitution to Anglos and what remains of its white DNA is mostly Anglo (shows up as 2nd or 3rd statistically but is massively underreported due to English so ingrained in America that people don't identify as 'English-American' but just 'American').
    btw apple pie is British, sandwiches are British, and obviously English muffins and cheddar cheese are English - this instantly puts us in the top 10-20 cuisines Americans have any awareness of.

    Yes and no.
    Yes, TV licenses are required, yes, they will enforce it. It's also the same in germany, although I can't speak to the accuracy of their "database" claims. It seems like one of those "beware of dog" signs you put up even though you don't have a dog. You could buy a TV with cash, second-hand, craigslist or (LMFAO) straw purchase a TV to circumvent this totally real database. Here in germany you have to pay even without a TV because you could technically use a computer or your phone to watch the online offerings from the government TV channels. That being said, everyone here is in a database with address, fingerprints and whatever else they log for residence purposes. Combine that with your tax records which show everything from religion (gotta pay church tax if christian) to employment data and thus your bank accounts it would be trivial to find out if you paid your govt. tv fees/license whatever.

      The database thing is nonsense.
      They have the publicly available list of residential addresses. Not residents, just the addresses.
      And they have a list of addresses currently paying for a licence.

      Literally anyone could create a list like that. I have a list of households not currently subscribing to my fan club.

      And the notification thing was just a notification that a TV had been sold, but not who to and where they live. And they don't do it anymore.

      I'm from the US and we have a small amount of federal money going to one national channel, .012% of the budget. I like the idea of more government-funded programming. Whether you pay through taxes or pay through a license it's all the same. This whole thread is a big meme. If brits don't buy enough licenses Parliament would just cut it out altogether and add it to your annual taxes instead. There's no way to get around it but the fact that they pay so much money to enforce the license system and make scary advertisements is ridiculous
