        @BBCBreaking @MAFTC without a trial? Without the person even being alive to answer for himself? Truly shocking

        @BBCBreaking rather than help them forget the abuse you give them money to spend and recall while spending it the abuse they suffered!

        @BBCBreaking That should read 'alleged" abused, there has been no trial to verify their accusations. NO licence fee money to them, either.

        @BBCBreaking you're funded by the licence fee: so effectively we're paying compensation to those who #saville abused. #whydoipaylicencefee
