What I can't understand is why Humph decided on a total ban. Surely if he had worked it out he (and his accountants) would have worked it out that a partial ban would have been 'cost effective'. Why didn't he go full hog and licence places like the Plough-Whitby, Nellies-Beverley and others and just not licence places that didn't have music. Would have made more business sense. I know people even including the 'diplomatic' services of Malcolm Storey have tried to change Humps's mind but he seems to be blind and deaf to critics (so he wouldn't hear the name calling)
