@GhostsButterfl1 @WasAcop This ⤴️ 💯%

@WasAcop Do not engage with them. They are a private company who get paid a commission for each license they "sell" by harassing people. Do not speak to them. You are not obliged to. If they knock on your door do not answer any questions - simply say "NO THANK YOU" and close the door

🚨 BBC TV Licence Debt Collectors Are Coming – But They Have ZERO Powers of Entry Without a Warrant. Know Your Rights! GB News reports the BBC is now desperately hiring debt collectors (Themis Recoveries) to chase “evaders” as non-payment hits a record 12.5% – nearly double in five years – costing them £550 million a year. Prosecutions are falling, people are switching to streaming, and public trust is collapsing. Critical advice on “powers of entry”: • TV Licensing visiting officers (Capita) and these new debt collectors have no legal right to enter your home. • They can only come in if you voluntarily let them in. • Without a court-issued search warrant (which is rare and requires strong evidence), they must leave when you tell them to. • Politely say: “I do not consent to you entering my property. Please leave.” Then close the door. They have no more power than a doorstep salesman. Don’t be bullied by aggressive letters or doorstep intimidation. If you don’t watch live TV or use BBC iPlayer, simply declare “No Licence Needed” on their website – they must respect it (subject to checks). This is a failing, outdated “poll tax” on your TV. The BBC is resorting to heavy-handed tactics while losing licence-fee payers in droves. Stand your ground. Share if you’re fed up with this nonsense. #TVLicence #KnowYourRights #BBCLicenceFee #StopTheBBCDebtCollectors gbnews.com/money/bbc-tv-l…

@shocklegger @WasAcop I had one walk into my home he got a shock though when 3 dogs one being a oversized mastiff blocked him from going any further I told him back up shut the door and you won't get hurt im sure he left a brown trail as he scarpered up the Rd 🤣🤣

@WasAcop Should they bang on the door excessively or try to push it open, there’s a criminal offence of using violence to secure entry. I cannot recall which act and section though.

@MrJones66140081 @WasAcop So you respected pedo protesters but not when they started propaganda that's where you drew the line your prioritys are warped side not they've always spread propaganda it's not new

@WasAcop Used to have some respect for the BBC's output but now so appalled by its role as genocide propagandists watch and listen to other media.

@haphazardjoker @WasAcop I've heard this I've always ignored all letter's slammed the door in their face without a word not had contact from them at all for about 5 years no visits no letter's

@WasAcop Filled out to i don't need a licence one once. Got more contact from the BBC than when I just ignored them.

@WasAcop I didnt engage with them at all the second they say who they are i slammed the door in the face that's if I answered the door 9 times out of 10 i dont they eventually gave up with me now i don't get letter's or visits because I never spoke or responded to letter's

@caffyhank This breaks my heart she's probably got 2 or 3 jobs just to feed her baby's but still managed to put a bit aside to give these kids beautiful childhood memories and some soulless c u next Tuesday has done this without a bloody care i hope someone who is in a position can help

Just seen this an it’s ruined my day at the thought, imagine the mum guilt on the train ride back home with all their bags packed two kids crying, even though it wasn’t her fault 😩😩😩 how do people get their heads down doing shit like this to people

@ChelseaKB1990 @caverncity @caffyhank They haven't nailed it at all + the fact you think they are some great detective 🤣🤣this will be another victim the scammer doesn't scam just 1 person u know 2 if the first lady was a scammer she'd have excepted offers of help instead she's said no because she's on her way home

@caverncity @caffyhank You’ve nailed it. It’s a scam. These people make up some sob story about their kids being let down, knowing it’ll make those with suicidal empathy throw money at them to “help”. Other one insists her kids are “babys” and 3 and 5 at the same time. Blatant scam and they’re quids in

@Cxalddhrest @0Gundamfan2 @SPD64 It's like literall hell for most animals especially dog's in Romania im thankfull some go out catching the dogs they can and feeding those they can't but it's never ending i was only ment to have 1 now i have 8 and have fosterd many more once they learn to trust you it's the best

@ravencrow72 @0Gundamfan2 @SPD64 @SuspendedDoll1 That's disgusting

Please be patient to UK content creators We are currently being hit with a pretty intense heatwave, meaning we'll probably be working a tad slower, have less energy and may even need to take a break from our PCs to prevent them from overheating Also none of this "Well we have it hotter over here" bs: - UK heat is built different - Most of us don't have ACs since we rarely NEED them for most of the year - Our houses are built to keep heat in due to how cold our weather can get - We aren't as used to hot weather given how 80% of the year, UK weather isn't hot We're not trying to dispute who has it worse/hotter, we just want patience and understanding 🙏

@dontforgetchaos Atchly he's wrong every metal head i know care about animal welfare and the suffering of animals so he's talking bolox

Not sure what point you’re trying to prove.

@Cxalddhrest @0Gundamfan2 @SPD64 @SuspendedDoll1 My pack are from Romania so totally legal to own a dog most dogs over there are used for work they don't spay or neuter so obviously breed then the owners dump them people will deliberately run dogs over for fun over their one of mine was beaten by kid's but she still loves kids

@ravencrow72 @0Gundamfan2 @SPD64 @SuspendedDoll1 True, also partly cultural too, in some middle east counties owning dogs is illegal so strays are seen as vermin

@TheAngry53586 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 No she's more of a critter 🤣🤣

@ravencrow72 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 Mate… Possessed by Pinhead🤣

Seen 3 dogs being walked through Farnham Town in the last hour. I’m sorry, but if you’re walking your dog, in a town centre, in 33 degrees…… YOU DON’T DESERVE TO OWN THAT DOG.

@TheAngry53586 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 A lot of sids quirks in her personality she plants her butt on my head in the morning to wake me up like he did she's always doing something that's hilarious she's a little fruit bat cross with a gremlin hence her name gizmo i don't think id be here without her

@TheAngry53586 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 Aww yeah I know how that feels honestly I nearly went back on the drink after I lost sid but not even a month went by and I saw this little gremlin i didn't think i could get another dog so soon but something about her spoke to me she looks nothing like sid but I see (cont)>

@TheAngry53586 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 The two most mischievous of my 8 zander and his best friend gizmo gizmo lives by her own rules and zander is along for the ride 🤣🤣

@ravencrow72 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 But he can put on the charm.

@TheAngry53586 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 🤣🤣🤣my Chinese crested sid was like that he understood every word and hed definitely do something like shit on my pillow or in my shoes because id laughed at him or took the piss 🤣🤣17 years i had this petulant teenager 🤣🤣

@ravencrow72 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 He is a handsome bastard. But occasionally he looks at me and I know to check the brakes next time I drive.

@Cxalddhrest @0Gundamfan2 @SPD64 @SuspendedDoll1 But also the dogs in hot countries have evolved to cope with the heat better it's nice to know they are looked after the country my street dog's come from are treated like vermin it's surprising how any of them ever trust

@ravencrow72 @0Gundamfan2 @SPD64 @SuspendedDoll1 Dogs in Egypt can still go around walking, but the owners bring Water and a bowl with them so the dog can stay hydrated whilst getting exercise

@dontforgetchaos One of my 8 is most unimpressed with me because he's not gone out this afternoon and instead got a cool bath to cool down and a nail clipping but id rather him be a pain in my butt for a few hours than suffering because he wants a walk the others are all chilled out asleep

Ok. The amount of shit I’m getting for this post is genuinely quite scary. People are evil.

@dontforgetchaos He's an idiot

Dog trainer advocates walking dogs in heat. Ok then.

@bald_pigeon @TheAngry53586 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 Gorgeous 😍

@TheAngry53586 @dontforgetchaos @Thomas977673521 Likewise this fella, though he did go down to the sea mid morning for his first ever dip. Wasn’t keen on waves!
