<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Simon - there is a sole exception to the
requirement for radio stations to be impartial on matters of public policy,
and that is on matters concerning the provision of the station's own
services - which is what we are discussing. (Communications Act 2003, 320
(3)(b)).</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>And I don't agree that we should attack the BBC -
that would be counterproductive (and in my opinion largely unjustified) - we
should simply campaign for a fair share of the licence fee.</FONT></DIV>

should, off air, campaign for some top slicing from the BBC and Central Office
Of Information. Before anyone tells me that the BBC is skint its worth
noting that they spent £46,000 on tickets to attend the Sony’s and put in over
500 applications at £50,000 .... That excludes the staff time preparing those
applications and the contractors that they paid to prepare them. Oh, and it
doesn’t include the hospitality or accommodation costs
either.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
