So Come On G ..if You Were In The Judges Position ..what Would You Have Done ...not Putting You On The Spot Just Wondered How Others May Have Gone About It........he Were Really Left With No Choice And Now This Scumbag Perv Is Gloating....

Re: Legal Madness
 

I think the Judge, given the new guide lines from John Reid this week about who does and doesn't qualify for a custodial sentence, sadly had no choice. I suspect the Judge himself is highly unhappy with his enforced ruling, hence him making it publicly known.

The whole thing is a disgrace, and the book stops with the short sightedness of this and previous governments, who have known about the chronic shortages of prison places for well over two decades.

Tough on crime my arse.

yeah i do agree ....him making it publicly known will and has brought awareness of the pressure they are under

So surely now its time for the government to wake up to reallity of the true custodial sentancing system that we have and kick arse where it needs kicking?....



I try to stay away from politics as much as i can mainly because im (in honesty) a bit ignorant of it ..but when something like this comes along it really gets my back up..but what really got me today was the guy on tv praising the judges decision ..the only good thing that came from it is everyone knows his face ....

Re: Legal Madness
 

That was a very good post cherokee, never mind staying away from politics get involved, these pages do get read by the 'powers that be', the only way to change things is by voicing your opinion and do not be afraid to do it.

Re: Legal Madness
 

because of this obsurdness not one single home is afe in the UK because burgulars know damn well they wont be going to jail if caught

if they can knock up a new tesco in a couple of weeks then surely they can make prisons

muggers will have a field day , its hard enough getting them in prison in teh first place so now it will be near impossible

this is an absolute disgrace and gives the green light to every criminal or thug in the country to do practicaly anything they like

how many women who suffer from stalkers , violent ex partners etc are now at risk because the threat of prison has been removed

jesus christ i know labour have screwed up a lot lately but this is just an embaracement and tony blair shoudl step down with imidiate effect and let somone else take over , he has been so busy medaling in other coutries affairs and looking after american interests he hasnt kept his eye on whats happening in the UK

bring back hanging for murder , that should clear up a few cells

Re: Legal Madness
 

Hit the nail right on the head there. Just think of the millions of pounds wasted on a pointless and disastrous military adventure in Iraq to satisfy America's thirst for oil and Blair's thirst for world statesmanship status. That money would have been better spent on a comprehensive prison building programme to provide spartan, but secure accommodation for various low lifes who are currently polluting our streets.

And to think, this was the government that promised to be "tough on crime". They should hang their heads in shame.

Re: Legal Madness
 

They should stop treating Criminals better that working class citizens.

Happen we should outsorce, send all (proven Guilty) Nonces, rapists and murders ect, to say a South African Prison, pay them so much per head and job done.:)

I wish.

Re: Legal Madness
 

Bang On MrD= They should stop treating criminals better than working class citizens. cannot agree with outsource though,just dumping the scum on someone else. still think my idea was best/cheapest= EXECUTE the perverted gits,job sorted.

Re: Legal Madness
 

Execution would be good but will never happen unfortunatly.

I watched a program about a prison (with Grant from Eastenders) in South Africa, and it looks like it would suit these 'scum of the earth' down to a treat.

Re: Legal Madness
 

Its absurd that he is off scot free, agree glad his face is now public.

Re: Legal Madness
 

Didn,t realise you were a mate of Grants,:D
