Shame the high voltage electricity doesn't blow a few more of these fkers up.

My local area!

[craste]

fk em all off back home!

[Victor McDade]

So as well as having our own scumbags stealing metal we are now importing them too

[exgtt]

These scrap metal merchants buying high value cable off scruff bags in high vizzies want stringing up.

Bail bail not charged five pound fine. Makes me hacked off ! Cable thief crims really are the scum of the earth

1 Billion a year in cable theft!!! That is unreal!!

Not solely the value of the nicked stuff, the the cost to replace, policing the crime, cost of disruption etc.

Cash for scrap is now illegal (which is good). I wonder how 's get on with that.

only a rumour , but scumbags get paid by cheque and very very nearby they are able to cash them easily without id etc

Caught a bit of this and noticed one of the coppers looked a lot like Minnie Driver.

A mate recently weighed in some legitimate scrap metal. You now have to have proof of name and address and your money gets paid into a bank account - no cash or cheque. There is a complete paper trail audit straight back to the person weighing the scrap in.

[The Highway Man]

The police are really hot with the 3 scrap yards where I live, even to the point of carrying out spot checks and going in plain clothes with scrap to check proper procedures are being carried out.

[Ianv12]

As above, I am sure there are still plenty of dodgy scrap dealers around (apologies to all non-dodgy dealers) who will buy copper cable, no questions asked. I also wonder whether the cable gets taken back to Romania.
Loved it when the cop said 'that old chestnut' when none of the crims could speak english

[ukzz4iroc]

If it ain't the poles it's the Romanians. The Romanians in particular should not be in this country the scum sucking vagrants.

[anonymous-user]

Angus appears to take himself waaaaaaaaaaay too seriously compare to the rest of 'em.

[JonnyFive]

Loved it when the drunk was on the phone, and the cop is hearing over the radio about blood on the blinds.. Just gives it the nod towards matey with bloody hands. Also sat in the station after already knowing his previous arrests listening to him claim hes only been arrested a few times

Makes me angry with the car load of Romanians stealing the cabling, hopefully they'll do it wrong sometime and get blown 100ft in the air. bds.

Alan Coleman is a good lad, we were Corporals together at the same Royal Military Police company.

You did the barrier up bit and he did barrier down?

[The Highway Man]

No, we were Military Police not RAF Police, we done proper police work not airfield security.
