The Champions League final has been pay to view for years hasn’t it?
"The Champions League final had been free on ITV each year from 1993 - with the exception of the 1994 final, which the BBC showed live - until BT Sport won the rights, starting from 2015-16.

BT Sport continued to make it available without a subscription through to 2023, simultaneously broadcasting the game on its YouTube channel.

This changed after BT Sport was bought by Warner Bros Discovery and rebranded as TNT Sports.

While the finals remained available without cost, fans needed to sign up for a Discovery+ account to get access.

Discovery+ has been replaced by Warner Bros Discovery's new streaming service, HBO Max, which has no free option."

Sad to see it go this way.
 
Thought he was on the Russian payroll?
“Farage says” . I can’t see the Russians exposing their number 1 asset.
He’s really panicking - how many stories has he come up with to justify this £5million backhander now?

Does the UK really intend to elect a man who will use his PM status to enhance his own wealth along with that of his family?

Do we really want to follow in the corrupt footsteps of Trump's shameful "Administration" ?

Not that I think Farage will last the pace..He's just a disrupter.

Has politics here just become a reality game show?

There wouldn't be political room for him, if successive governments actually did something about the concerns around immigration.

Don't be so naive, they are all at it, look at the wealth most of Blairs Labourites have accumulated and it also trickles down to their children.

It was just reported that net migration fell to its lowest since 2012, though some people are claiming without proof that the people leaving are skilled.

The number of asylum seekers in hotels waiting for their claims to be approved fell, and did the number of people coming here by boat.

What actually happens to the asylum seekers in hotels when their claims fail? Why do we never seem to see the figures of how many actually leave the country? Genuine question. I certainly don’t get taken in by the narrative ‘ people (men) coming in by boats’ has fallen. There are still far too many and now the summer coming. It’s total madness that they are almost invited in. We all see the videos of them going on their daily shopping trips to the local towns in their mini buses. And surely people who do migrate from this country must be more skilled than what we are getting in? I don’t see British citizens fleeing in boats to some shithole in the Middle East

Reading that report, the wording is interesting. People (men) in hotels has dropped. Yes’ that’s because a lot have been moved out of them and into accommodation. They literally manipulate figures to convince us thickos that it’s all rosy again. All total bullshit

This doesn't even sound like he's trying to justify it to me. It sounds like a scooby do "I would have gotten away with it too, if it werent for you meddling kids" type of statement.
