Maybe this will focus the world's attention and let us negotiate Brexit in peace....

I received a summons from these what ever you want to call them . Saying on so and so date no TV licence was in force from XX date to XX date. Also there was a statement by a officer which i had signed. However the statement stated that i had a certain tv and i had also a certain sattelite system etc. However the signature was mine but somehow the statement did not make sense. I went to court with a no guilty plea. At the hearing a trial date was set. I then told the magistrates i would like the officer who interviewed me to be present at the trial so that i can ask him some questions. to this the prosecutor jumped and asked why. None of your business i said. Just some simple questions. What simple questions he asked ? Any way the magistrates agreed and i also asked for £200 in costs for the trial if i were to prove my innocence. Now some 3 weeks later i have received a letter from the above saying the summons is being withdrawn. I dont have a problem with this but i would urge anybody who goes to court because of these numpties to ask for the interviewing officer to be present at the trial hearing. To be on the safe side prepare some questions and be prepared. In the worst case there will be a hearing and the interviewing person present. However more than likely they will pull the summons before the trial date. I will scan up a copy of the letter from them. Just havent got a scanner at the moment.
