Yes it's a witch hunt, but that's what the press does. Optics are almost more important than policy these days. If the public has even a whiff that a government isn't trustworthy, or is chaotic, that feeling lingers like a rotten smell. It's another comms catastrophe for Labour - every time there's a story they rush out a knee-jerk denial, without verifying the facts. They did it with Raynor and it was a shit-show. That's what Labour keeps getting wrong. Reeves should have been gagged and told by someone with an ounce of sense to first check her emails. -

And at £945 per selective license. Not a bad earner for the council! -

For a while there was an unexpected glitch in planning laws that meant phone box operators (which is obviously mostly BT, but there were others) didn't need council permission to replace call boxes with small electronic billboards, so long as you could make calls from the billboard. I *think* the one on the corner of Croxted Rd and Park Hall Rd is an example of that. So the operators weren't always in a rush to remove the call boxes even when they didn't make any money on calls. I don't know if it still works like this. https://www.local.gov.uk/about/news/lga-call-crackdown-trojan-telephone-boxes-amid-900-cent-rise-some-areas
