Tumbled Logic

Yarr

Tom Watson questions the Culture Secretary, Ben Bradshaw, on illicit filesharing:

Mr Bradshaw: …the cost of doing nothing to the music industry alone in this country is estimated at about £200 million.

Q26 Mr Watson: Whose estimate is that?

Mr Bradshaw: That is the industry’s estimate. It is an estimate that I have not seen challenged by anyone in any serious way.

I’m far from convinced that this was a joke

Or, indeed, this

Or, for that matter, this

But, y’know, what’s complete ignorance of the field you’re legislating between friends?

Thanks to Tom for asking the questions.
