Happy returns

The Sun, and many of its readers with Twitter accounts, have been getting hot under under the collar about TV Licensing spending £9.25 million last year on 34 million letters sent out chasing licence fee payments. The news even merits a Sun editorial. 

Less re-tweeted is a line further down the story.  A TV Licensing spokesman said: “These letters generate more funds than they cost to send, so more money can be spent on programmes and services.”
