Ah, yes - that famous rhetorical trick - typo policing. Yes, I pay the license fee. Do you? Even if I thought the BBC was the most perfect organisation with sublime programming and insightful news coverage, I still wouldn't want it to

I suspect it's more likely that the inspectors see women as a soft touch and lower risk and more easily intimidated and less prone to violence. In the same way ticket inspectors on trains ask people in suits for tickets but avoid askin
