Jeezus Christ! That fecker deserves his own thread on here for that. Good on the judge recalling him!Well, quite. Many people see Facebook as equivalent to a chat with mates in the pub where you can get away with anything, not a written public record.
Speculation on:
Perhaps he put forward the impression that he was remorseful in court, and the judge took this into consideration when sentencing, but the Facebook post changed their mind.
Speculation off.

This is no word of a lie, but years ago I was talking to my then neighbour (graduate engineer and studying Law), and I mentioned that I'd served in Northern Ireland.

You aren't.As in being British you have to be part of Great Britain rather than the full GB & NI?
Or are you something else as a member of the UK, of which NI is inclusively a part?
