The BBC has decreed that from next year, no-one will be able to obtain a TV licence from a post office. This franchise is being handed to a foreign-owned company, Power Point.
The BBC alleges that this will save, over six years, £100m, a fraction of what it has wasted on Freeview transmitters.
This will have a two-fold desired effect for the Government it will help it close more post offices, and it will help its pals in the financial circles that want all the post office business.
Did I hear someone mention the honours list?
