The BBC's Director of Comedy wants to "save the sitcom". But the sitcom is only endangered because most of them stopped being funny. As To the Manor Born reminds us, British comedy has lost its class, says Finlay McLaren.

Is the era of cheap internet surveys over? A new paper demonstrates that AIs can now be "trivially programmed" to answer online surveys in ways that are essentially indistinguishable from humans.

We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

Bin Trucks Grounded in Fingal

category dublin | bin tax / household tax / water tax | news report author Wednesday September 10, 2003 12:25author by No Bin Tax Report this post to the editors

Anti-bin tax protesters ground trucks in North and West Dublin

Fingal County Council have escalated the bin tax struggle by refusing to collect the bins of non-payers.

The anti-bin tax campaign has moved onto a new level in Fingal. For years, a campaign of mass non-payment of this unjust double tax has been going on across Dublin.

Today Fingal Council refused to collect the bins of non-payers. In response, residents in Fingal have taken to the streets and grounded at least five of the Council's bin collection trucks in housing estates.

The Gardai are trying to intimidate protestors by taking names. Joe Higgins, Socialist Party TD, has just been on the Pat Kenny show defending the protests.
