Just A Thought.

[SparklyKid]

Just a thought 4800 immigrants living in hotels, do they need TV licencences or do the over 75s subsidise them, bloody outrageous

[Zacs-Master]

They probably do, along with the rest of us license paying citizens.

Nobody living in a hotel, care home, nursing home, hospital, prison, hostel or any such place needs a tv licence.

Not all over 75s have to pay for a tv licence. So what are you outraged about? The migrants living in a hotel or the tv licence for the over 75s that live in their own home and not on pension credit?

[aelmpvw]

i may be wrong but i don't think you need a licence to watch a television belonging to someone else . . .

[SparklyKid]

Me, not lucky enough to be on pension credit, and all the associated perks.

[barry1010]

ael, unless you are renting a furnished property that is your main residence that includes a tv.

[aelmpvw]

i'm not on pension credit and i count myself lucky not be in that situation

[allenlondon]

Lock ‘em up! Build some camps! What do they think we are? Compassionate?

[Baldric]

The most outrageous thing here is they are still in this Country, what's wrong with taking them back to France?

[THECORBYLOON]

The Hotel owners pay for licences according to how may rooms they have.

[barry1010]

People on pension credit really do struggle even with the 'perks'. I know over 75s at the other end of the scale - still paying higher rate income tax.

Not all pensioners are the same, some are very well off, some are struggling and there are lots in between.

[Peter Pedant]

and they have to pay a penny to go to the bog .....
