Dumbo Dimbo and the BBC poll tax

As David Dimbleby, the hereditary BBC Royalty correspondent, bites the hand that feeds him, the corporation thanked its viewers for paying for the programme.

The BBC, struggling for relevance and support in the streaming era and despite its dubious and downright libellous editorial decisions, failed to spot the irony.

While it is employing a Dimbleby whose family made its name bowing and scraping to the Monarchy, the turncoat is now attacking the Monarchy’s alleged wealth (who thinks they will really sell the Royal stamp collection or any of the valuable paintings held on the nation’s behalf?).

His immensely tedious programme went on ad nauseam about how rich the Royals are thanks to tax-dodging deals with the likes of George Osborne. And he made it clear we taxpayers have no choice but to endure these rich and privileged Royals lording it over the plebs.

It’s worth remembering the BBC is funded by their own special unavoidable poll tax which raises £3.8 billion. The Royal family costs us £132 million.
