He would become a real martyr then though so I wonder if they will risk it. His comments about the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ are spot on. I despair at paying the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ fee !

It's pretty clear where you're coming from.
There's a place we all know where your restricted and restrictive perceptions and prognostications may be better received...

Wake up ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ. Not everybody is English. I hop these protests spread. There were 2 protests in Wales on the same day at the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ studios in Wrexham and Bangor. If the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ does not wake up soon they will find protests at every studio.

The Celtic League's "attack" on the B.B.C.,(as part of the League's "Operation Pheonix"), seems to attracted far less publicity than the League were hoping for. I would imagine the plans to go to London and repeat the process will attract even less attention.
