No It did not re read..... anyway as I was trying to say its all about the actus reus the nastie here thinks he can prove it which is why he is going with a threat of court.
In my opinion, he's going with a threat of court because he will get brownie points from his boss if he makes the OP buy a licence. Its a scare tactic. In fact, by misrepresenting the legal position he's being very naughty indeed and opening himself up to all sorts of potential problems. Hopefully one day, he'll make similar threats to a barrister or something.
A friend of mine in Brighton doesn't even have a TV set anywhere in his house, and he's been threatened with all sorts of legal action by TV Licensing for years now. He just ignores them. Nothing's happened so far.
