For sure. I think the best course of action is to cut off the money supply. They are parasites. As long as we keep feeding them, they will thrive. Full HMRC investigations, UWO’s, seizure of assets unable to be fully accounted for out of legitimately taxed income etc etc. In other words, procedures and laws which would apply to you and I. Put the spotlight on them, make them feel uncomfortable and under pressure, that they are being watched and their actions will have consequences.
Victimisation of an [ ethnic ? ] minority, it won't happen.

However, deportation back to Ireland seems a .......oh no we can't, we are in the EU, freedom of movement of parasitic sub-criminal
minorities is enshrined in the EU charter.

damn and blast, if there was only a way we could leave the EU.....sigh.

Doesn’t bear thinking about. I hope she has a lot of friends and family with her right now. Her mind must be frazzled. A friend lost her teenage daughter in between the hen party and her wedding day (2 weeks later) - not nice.

Responding to Dibble - I firmly believe there should be an instant minimum (and large) custodial sentence when anyone attacks any member of the police, ambulance, fire fraternity. It’s not acceptable to go into work and face these people, who I’m quite sure will often be repeat offenders.
IF murder is proved then a whole-life order is the recommended starting point for sentencing

Dibble said:
This is absolutely awful, but fortunately, despite the increasing number of assaults on Police (one about every 20 minutes), it’s unlikely one will be killed as a Police Officer in the UK. That said, even one death is one too many.

I’ve been assaulted plenty of times as a Police officer. I can count on the fingers of one finger the amount of times I’ve actually got any of the compensation I’ve been awarded by the Courts. Our Chief Constable has recently started writing witness statements when officers are assaulted, so at least in my mob, we are getting a little more support internally, even if the Courts don’t seem to back it up. I’m not in WMP, but the statements are similar to this. Where our Chief knows the officer personally, he’ll include that in his statement too. He’s pretty good, I have to say.

I still don’t support the death penalty. There are too many chances to get it wrong, although perhaps fewer now than historically, with advances in forensic science, CCTV, etc, but again, once is once to many.
Watching the various TV programs featuring policing I am amazed at the amount of abuse you men and women have to put up with nowadays , let alone the tragic circumstances of this topic.
How you put up with it without giving them a clout is beyond me.
It is nigh on impossible for me to understand how ,in the course of a generation, the lack of respect not just for police, has degenerated.

The link didn’t work but I could understand the point. I genuinely hate to say it but I can’t see a murder conviction happening in this case with our current weak sentencing.

Odd, just tried link, its OK this end. If we dont want to bring back the death penality, then we need very stiffer sentences without even thinking of appeals, life should mean life.

Be interesting to find out where the scrots involved came from, keeping my thoughts to my self.

Must just be me - or phone playing up.

But yes - would be happy for my taxes to fund much stiffer sentences - but not the death penalty.

Reminds me of Keith Blakelock. That led to reform of the command structure in incident response.

I can only hope this leads to a similar impact to protect officers.

They should bring back hard labour in prisons. Rock breaking, shifting coal etc for 12 hours a day make prison hell for certain types of prisoners

Is this the PH equivalent of The Four Yorkshiremen?

"Prison for 500 years, arms amputated, breaking rocks, legs amputated and the death penalty?"

"Luxury!..."

I agree, but such hard line regimes will never happen, nothing that radical will ever through
a parliament rapidly filling up with women and progressives.

The very best thing you can say about capital punishment is that it doesnt have an effect, however you need to admit that it's definitely not decreasing crime.
You could argue that the executed persons don't commit any more crime...

Is there a camp round there or something?
I did wonder looking at the age range.

... All arrested at the same location.

A different location to the scene ...

So unless they've all been enjoying a luxurious spa break at one of Berkshire's most exclusive resorts and just decided en masse that they fancied a spot of burglary - I know where I'd put my money.
