There was something seriously bugging me last night when I read this and about 3am this morning I suddenly awoke, remembering. It's this:
Desecration of War Memorials Bill
I'm pretty sure the Queen has not signed off on this yet because the bill was put on ice due to the election. I may be wrong. If it is now law then there should be a full police investigation and the character(s) who did this should be sent down for 6 months ( not enough, in my humble opinion).
