Christian Voice
Director Faces Bankruptcy over
'Springer' case
Visitors to this site may remember the BBC2 transmission of Jerry Springer
the Opera in January 2005 with all
the protests and its failure of a theatre tour in 2006, over which
Christian Voice tried to bring a private prosecution for blasphemy.
Recently, the leader of
Christian Voice was informed he was due to pay £55,000 to the
BBC and £35,000 to Avalon in respect of the costs of his 'Jerry
Springer the Opera' action against Mark Thompson and Jonathan Thoday. It follows a High Court ruling in December
that they were immune from prosecution. See:
£90,000 is money
they don't have. Mark Thompson earns more than 20 times in a year
what the Leader of Christain Voice, and Jonathan Thoday has wealth in
excess of £12 million.
Christian Voice has a petition
calling for the Thompson and Thoday to waive their costs:
When you have signed it,
click on 'signatures' and be amazed at the anti-Christian hatred in the
comments left by Thompson and Thoday's supporters on page 1.
It would help enormously
if you were also to email the major players and send copies of
this article to others so they might sign the e-petition, and e-mail or
write:
Write/email simply to ask
that the BBC and Avalon respectively would waive their costs. If you
are writing to the BBC, you might say that you are happy for your
license fee to be spent on these costs - rather than on Jonathan Ross,
for example.
