Someone really needs to sit down, and go through it and have a rethink because right now, the people who are worst off are the people who pay taxes every week/month in their pay packet. They are the people who keep the economy growing.
Sending someone to prision for throwing a cone in a street, will cost this country around £1500/£1700 a month in costs. Where as if they were on the street, looking for work with just a ticking off and a fine, they'd be bringing in £150 a month in taxes. It's all just a donimo effect in the courts these days, and the government don't really give two hoots.

you may laugh at the BNP but they are a growing party. one year they had 500,000 members which isn't that great but the following voting year they had a million votes. i think a lot of people are for the BNP but they think their vote will be more useful when voting for labour or conservative etc.
think a lot of people are getting fed up with the imigrant population in britain.
ask annis about the chat he had on the way to forest about it all
(for the record i voted labour )

Ex-missus (still friends) got hit by an unissured driver a feww weeks back on the way to work. She got out of the car, and only recently bought it, told the man who hit her that she wanted his details, he turned around and said, and I quote "No point love, don't have any insurence"... And theres f**k all she could do about it because it turned out he didn't have an perminant address so she couldn't chase it up.

exactly, the ruling is awful.
the BNP aren't nazis. everyone has their own opninions and tbh there probably are a few nazi sort of people but most of them are people who don't care what others think and want to fight and save the country from being even more overun with imigrants...which to me sounds fair.

In my view anyone driving without a licence or insurance should get a hefty fine (more than the £100 you mention) forced to attend and pass a driving test within a set period of say 6 months and have the 6pts on their licence so they have to drive carefully or risk running up more points and losing the licence again. Anyone convicted a 2nd time should be fined even more and any 3rd time offender jailed as they are obviously too stupid or cocky to learn.
My view on drink drivers is coloured by the fact that a close friend of mine had his father killed by a drunk driver. The idiots who do it don`t realise or care that they are in control of a lethal weapon , which is what a car is in the wrong hands.They should be fined heavily and have a 12 month ban for first offence if only slightly over the limit and jailed if well over the limit or for a second offence.
As a father and grandfather , I believe anyone involved in any offence against children should be jailed and anyone involved in physical/sexual abuse against children should be chemically castrated.
As for your football fan example , this debate has revealed extreme views on both sides. Personally , I think many of the sentences handed out were very harsh for some of the more minor offences. Perhaps some community service and a shorter banning order period would be more appropriate. For those that say all they did was jump up and down , maybe a compulsory attendance at Morris Dancing lessons would make them realise how silly they look .For second or serial offenders though , aren`t jail sentences appropriate though as they are well aware of how hard (rightly or wrongly)the law is cracking down on hooliganism but haven`t learnt the lesson and still offend?
