That little statement shows all too well just where the authorities' sympathies lie.

Couldn't agree more Wynonie, yet I'm one of those people who thinks life in prison for murder should mean life not eight years, and the the word concurrent should be deleated from sentancing requirements and replaced with consecutive.

Re: Another One For The PC Brigade To Work On !!
The vast majority of people in the country think this way. However, our politicians refuse to take action on this. I keep asking for Greg Pope to come on here and explain why his government won't adopt a genuinely tough stance on law and order, but, of course, he won't because he knows how hopelessly at odds he would appear with his constituents. Not that I would expect anything better from matey Dave "hug a hoodie" Cameron.

Don't the vast majority of people in this country think differently to polticians anyway. The vast majority probably only vote based on the colour of a rosette.

Sadley the human rights act forbids this kind of torture so how about writing replies to kids Christmas letters to Santa. Now that would rub salt into the wounds but could not be challenged as its a form of community service.
Bannana gets reply to Christmas letter.

Re: Another One For The PC Brigade To Work On !!
While they're booking Cliff for a Christmas concert or two they could get Noel Edmonds to go in and visit each cell with a small pressie on Christmas morning and then televise the visits to entertain the rest of us.
"Now here's poor Slasher McGrannie who's stuck in Strangeways over Christmas for stabbing his elderly neighbour with a kitchen knife. Let's see what Santa brought you Slasher. Oh look, it's a Monopoly game. Go straight to Jail, do not pass go, Do not collect £200. Ooops sorry Slasher, you already did collect £200 when you stabbed the old dear and that's why you're in here, isn't it?"

Re: Another One For The PC Brigade To Work On !!
They won't have to miss too many Christmas's. Labours revolving door policy has sorted that out.
Who brought in the Human Rights Act? .......................... Labour.

Must've been a really slow day for news over at the Beeb! It's more nonsense than news.
