Another Eastern European thief in our courts Options

[gel]

No mention made of any attempt to recover any of the stolen £12k; stolen from WBC taxpayers.

Sentence is hardly a deterrent in my view; no doubt the funds were channelled back to Romania.


As a serial offender, the pair of them should be deported forthwith, as should other aliens, who abuse their hosts.

This excuse of not having English as a first language seems to work very well indeed doesn't it !!

"...resulting in an overpayment of £12,000."


Riight.


"....Magistrates made Mr Chiriac subject to a 12-month community order with 100 hours unpaid community work requirement.

In addition they ordered him to pay £120 costs plus a statutory surcharge of £60.

Assuming the 100 hours unpaid community work is equal to £6.50 an hour he has not even paid back 1/10th.

I would say drop kick him off the white cliffs of Dover.

Nah, he's an immigrant inne, gotta love n cuddle him, according to some it's he that will be the salvation of the UK.

[motormad]

Just seems with actions like the above, there's no deterrant. I doubt the Community Service order will even be fulfilled.

The argument is: why the need to highlight the origin of the person? Is the implication that Eastern European immigrants are more likely to break these laws? Or is this an argument for more strict immigration laws?

They're reporting on facts.
And bringing up the origin of a person at the centre of a criminal investigation, especially regarding benefits, always is interesting.

[je suis Charlie]

1 less immigrant would at least mean 1 less crime. or indeed several! Unless you consider that he's only doing what a traditional British thief would be doing instead? Coming over here and nickin all our crimes.

Really, is there any need to racialise crime? As a former police officer and an academic in the field of criminology and criminal justice there is no evidence to support the supposition that people commit crime because of their ethnicity.

If anyone wishes to challenge this position then feel free to enrol at Southampton Solent University on the MSc Criminology and Criminal Justice Course where you can debate the matter live with me and others for hours.

Exactly my point.

[motormad]

I don't think anyone is saying that Ruwan.

It's bad someone is allowed to immigrate into this country, then steals, doesn't have to pay back what they stole, and then is allowed to continue their residency here.

THAT is wrong, of any culture.

The argument is that deportation is not an option for indigenous people, so it is wrong to treat others different.

Ummm, I think if we went to Australia and committed crimes, we would be deported.

So I see nothing wrong with being deported if you are committed of a blatant criminal act. Too softy in this country.

Too **** right.

Where, exactly, do you deport an indigenous person to?

Think of it in terms of enhanced involuntary repatriation.

[Andy Capp]

Exactly the point. To deport someone is treating a foreigner differently than an indigenous person. Gaol or a fine is considered appropriate, why should a foreigner have an extra punishment?
