We all know it goes on.

Some of us have seen the evidence first hand.

With Electronic milometers this is becoming all too common.

I expect there was a long difficult investigation with these toerags

I rather thought the sentences were derisory.

With this kind of repeated conspiracy to defraud I think a minimum of five years is necessary if the government want to stop this happening.

What do others think?

Fraud on members of the public is always treated lightly if you ask me.

Indeed. For some reason it's almost acceptable while tax fraud is considered a little worse than murdering a whole school.

Seriously, 12 months suspended - that'll be litterally no punishment. Nothing. What's the point?

There were probably 6 brothers involved, but they fiddled the numbers!
