You pay bedrooms. If you live in a council house and you have bedrooms spare they can kick you out too
they scrapped the bedroom tax just havent bothered telling people so they can still charge, tv license is stupid was brought in because bbc had no ads yet now you cant even use a phone or cd player in your home without a tv license we already pay for sky/virgin media/other tv packages so why pay a license aswell
plus council tax you have to pay even if you own your own home not just people in council houses our systems pretty messed up
they have ads on bbs channels now so no reason for the tv license its just another way of getting money out of people
