Shouting at the telly?

Is this an age problem or are some of you younger folks at it too? That box/screen in the corner of the room used to be for information and entertainment. It seems to me that it is now used for propaganda, pressure selling and intimidation, through drip feeding.

Rant over - for now!

Why can't the Traveller on trial for the death of a policeman be subjected to the same treatment applied to the Policeman.

He was caught by a tow rope and dragged behind the thief’s vehicle whilst the driver tried to dislodge him by swinging him from side to side at 40mph.

The policeman died of catastrophic injury’s. When he was found by his colleagues the only item of clothing left on his body was his boots

Why the 17 year olds cant be named is an absolute disgrace.

Quite and daily one of my daughters has to put up with this kind of trash trying to keep us safe. Absolutely needless and tragic death at the hands of, well, sub human rubbish

I completely agree with you, I find myself shouting at the telly on a daily basis.
