「Static And Glow: Parliament’s Strange Neon Row」を編集中

The Day Westminster Debated Static and Glow  <br><br>Looking back, it feels surreal: while Europe braced for Hitler’s advance, MPs in Westminster were arguing about neon signs.  <br><br>Labour firebrand Gallacher, rose to challenge the government. Was Britain’s brand-new glow tech ruining the nation’s favourite pastime – radio?  <br><br>The answer was astonishing for the time: the Department had received nearly one thousand reports from frustrated licence-payers.  <br><br>Imagine it:  [http://www.sunti-apairach.com/nakhonchum1/index.php?name=webboard&file=read&id=1001389 modern sign makers UK] listeners straining to catch news bulletins, drowned out by the hum of glowing adverts on the high street.  <br><br>Major Tryon confessed the problem was real. But here’s the rub: the government had no legal power to force neon owners to fix it.  <br><br>He promised consultations were underway, but stressed that the problem was "complex".  <br><br>Which meant: more static for listeners.  <br><br>Gallacher shot back. People were paying licence fees, he argued, and they deserved a clear signal.  <br><br>Another MP raised the stakes. If neon was a culprit, weren’t cables buzzing across the land just as guilty?  <br><br>The Postmaster-General ducked the blow, admitting it made the matter "difficult" but offering no real solution.  <br><br>---  <br><br>From today’s vantage, it feels rich with irony. Neon was once painted as the noisy disruptor.  <br><br>Jump ahead eight decades and the roles have flipped: neon is the endangered craft fighting for survival, while plastic LED fakes flood the market.  <br><br>---  <br><br>So what’s the takeaway?  <br><br>First: neon has always rattled cages. From crashing radios to clashing with LED, it’s always been about authenticity vs convenience.  <br><br>Second: every era misjudges neon.  <br><br>---  <br><br>Our take at Smithers. We see the glow that wouldn’t be ignored.  <br><br>That old debate shows neon has always mattered. And that’s why we keep bending glass and filling it with gas today.  <br><br>---  <br><br>Ignore the buzzwords of "LED neon". Glass and gas are the original and the best.  <br><br>If neon could jam the nation’s radios in 1939, it can sure as hell light your lounge, office, or storefront in 2025.  <br><br>Choose craft.  <br><br>You need it.  <br><br>---
