I'm betting on council tax increase.
Dreading it. It will likely be 100-150 a year extra.

Apparently we have a visit on 10th of August! I hope they come so i can mock.

These new private NHS diagnosis centres are going to be great for treating those with paranoia of the licenses enforcers. Capitaphobia

There is no free TV licence for pensioners anymore (with the exception of those on pension credits). The 'caring' BBC took that away ...

Its amazing the propaganda you guys swallow.

The Tories cut the funding to the BBC which is the reason why things changed. You all really need to be angry at the Tories as they are the only reason funding gets cut.

Its like you dont want to hear the truth.

disney price hike and ads version
The announcement puts to an end much of the initial allure that led to the popularity of streaming. When Netflix first offered its pioneering service for only $8 a month, millions of people signed up, eager to have access to the company’s expansive catalog for just a fraction of the cost of the traditional cable bundle. That served as the genesis of the streaming era, with legacy entertainment companies such as Disney racing to launch their own direct-to-consumer products at unsustainably low costs.

Now that is all over.

Those massive libraries of content are growing more expensive (not to mention shrinking) by the year. In fact, consumers who bundle just a few streamers together in 2023 will find that the final cost is effectively the same as basic cable. Couple that reality with the introduction of ads into streaming and the end product eerily resembles on-demand cable.

It’s an ironic end to the streaming wars. After pouring billions and billions of dollars into constructing supposedly revolutionary streaming platforms, and decimating the business models that had offered the industry stability for decades, the ultimate product looks awfully similar to what companies and consumers were trying to break free from in the first place.

voyage of Odysseus.

If only the BBC got rid of this cheap reality tv - the discussion on strictly, love island etc but guess it pulls in the viewers
gave up watching GBBO years ago, BOTP recording that to avoid/jump adverts, but haven't watched the final episodes of last year yet.
