Just wait until your house is on fire.. I bet you want public

Yep, that's what we pay for.

Exactly.

However, there is a small upside. If there are fewer insured, there
are fewer claims and by implication,less rise in premium for the
insured.

But the social fund, which is politically necessary, is paid from our
taxes (and not by Sky subscriptions)
