Amazing the different standards demanded depending on your point of view.
Its OK for the BBC to pay so called celebs who say the right things obscene amounts, (whilst removing the free TV licence for over 75’s 
) but someone like Icke who says the wrong things presumably must wear sackcloth and ashes ride a 30 year old push bike and live in a tent at the edge of the council rubbish tip.
Do i think Icke is milking it, no, if he manages to make a living (and from what i’ve seen of Icke’s home, a relatively modest living at that) good luck to him.
Thankfully i’ve given up the TV licence, and they know exactly what they can do with their state propaganda broadcasts.
