The Lib Dems have promised that, if elected, there will be more premiership football games featuring Ed Davey on free to air television. They see this as an excellent policy – popular and also cheap. This has inspired them to make further plans to ‘sort out the telly’.
Ideas under consideration include:
- fewer adverts during films, and no sneaky backloading of adverts towards the end of the film. How annoying is that?
- bringing back David Tennant as Doctor Who, and toning down all the gay stuff.
- a strict quota on ABCDEFG programmes. The acronym refers to programmes about Antiques, Bargains, Clothes, Disasters and DIY (including DIY disasters), Emergency Services, Food and Gardening.
- reducing the 1% Club to twenty minutes, as there are so few quiz questions and far too much banter.
- all streaming services to be free on Sundays
- a new version of It’s A Knockout, with teams of politicians. This is mainly on the list because Ed Davey is very keen to participate, and because he imagines that a Lib Dem team might actually win.
