I've just read the article regarding criminals being "let off"
Is it April fools day?
I can't believe what is happening here. No wonder people are voting for parties like UKIP while this and, I have to say, previous governments fail to listen to and protect the ordinary law abiding citizens from the lazy, violent criminal underclass.
When oh when will a government represent me and the majority of people like me.

I'd want to see more of a breakdown of the cases and the reasons before I take a politicians spin as fact.

How many were dropped because:

Witnesses recanted
complaints withdrawn
suspect failed to appear and have not been traced
offenders already searving prison sentences for other offences
cases dropped because suspects provided information
etc
etc
etc

It is not spin.... kids just get warning and let off. I know many police officers who have said they are sick on the justice system.

Do you mean 'sick on' or 'sick of'? No wonder we're in a mess if that's what they really do....

Well spotted my friend.... It was put in to see if you are observing properly!!! tongue.gif It was supposed to be "sick of". However, "sick on" does fit in rather well.
