Hi, does anyone have any tools or drills for sale? Had all my kit robbed Saturday early hours 😢 2k worth of kit! Drills, testers, tools, took the whole lot! I’m in Liverpool area.
 
John Major brought in a reform that any Foreign national caught for the second time would be repatriated to their home country, trouble is the do gooders out there fought it down as against human right for asylum seekers, not to say that all scrotes are foreign.
 
The biggest issue we face is the "You know who " are now a "protected race " or some other silly thing. THEY funded to the tune of hundreds of thousands to be "Joined at the hip" with Romanian Gypsies and the courts fell for it . Its their get out of jail card . Another reason we are becoming a "pathetic nation" . I was told that Local Council heads and even Police chiefs have been told there Homes are "known" And these "people "will take matters into their own hands if the council or police "annoy them"
 
The problem is a prison sentence now is not perceived to be the deterent it needs to be and is more like a stay at an all inclusive holiday camp while the victim struggles to get back to where they where before the crime was committed against them.
The issue that needs addressing are the laws that give the perpetrator of the crime certain standards and rights that they did not allow the victim, the do gooders have a lot to answer for with their support for the wrong side IMO while the victim is left with little or nothing

I don't agree that prison is like a holiday camp, in fact a prison sentence for some families can have a devastating lifelong consequence.

Without know the circumstances of the thief and why they do what they do, then it's difficult to easily find a solution.
 
To steal a person's tools is just appalling, costing them loads of money and lost work, and effectively threatening their livelihood.
It's a mean crime, as are many of course, but it seems to be on the increase and not much is or can be done about it.
The video posted above by @LukeD is shocking...I didn't realise just how blatant this selling-on had become. I can just understand someone in desperate need pinching a couple of things, but the size of those tool displays shows just how big the business is.
To lighten the tone, here is a pic i took earlier this year in my village:

There are plenty of home grown thieving scum as well.

That comment really sums what is actually wrong in today's society by turning it around so that the criminals are the victims while the crime can leave the real victims and / or their families in a devastating state they never envisaged before the crime
Without know the circumstances of the thief and why they do what they do, then it's difficult to easily find a solution.
How many criminals ever look at the circumstances of their victim before committing the crime, it is all to easy to look for and make excuses for why the crime was committed and the personal circumstances but it does not and should not detract from them serving the appropriate sentence for the crime
We need to bring in a real deterent soon otherwise it could turn nasty when the public withdraw their consent for the current policing system

No point withdrawing consent from the policing system - it's the judicial system that's at fault. The police arrest them, the defence lawyers plead that they had a bad upbringing, the judge gives them a short or suspended sentence. Then they are back on the street and the cycle repeats.

A lot of these criminals have 20+ previous convictions. All of which are a result of the police catching them.

Yes.But in regards to organised tool theft.These lot are Gold medal winners. Also some days it looks like entire retailers have been robbed by them. when you see 80 brand new fully labelled OX hammers, 100x stanley chisel sets . Cutters and drill bits all fully "retailed " .Now this can be on ONE stall only . so once you see 20 of these stall all with brand new fully unopened items all of the same brand and models EVER week. There has to be a trail to where they are coming from . The market owners are too scared to stop them. The police and council too scared . They trade on fear and are allowed a "freedom pass"

You make a sweeping statement that prisons are like holiday camps, and obviously have no real idea what they are like or how, especially young offenders or people with mental health problems, are treated.

That's what the justice system is for, to deem an appropriate sentence based on the circumstances.
And pray tell what you would deem a deterrent sentence for say two 18yr olds, one who has a record as long as your arm and the other who has no record at all but has just gone along with his mate ?.

Organised crime is a different ball game as far as sentencing is concerned.

So you dislike and disagree, but no response to your statement of Prisons are like a holiday camp ? Or no reply as to what your deterrent would be ?.
 
You have set out your sympathic position to crime need I say more than what I have already posted

You seem to continue to make sweeping statements, just like you have again.

Nowhere have I said I was sympathetic, what I said was" Without knowing the circumstances of the thief and why they do what they do, then it's difficult to easily find a solution." You disagree with my statement, so obviously you must have a solution ?

You say the cure is a deterrent sentence, but given a scenario, you obviously can't think of what one would be.

You say "Prisons are seen to be like holiday camps” but you don't reply as to why you think that is ?

All you do is press the dislike and disagree, and give no reply in defence.

I obviously don't agree with crime of any kind, but there can be victims on both sides.
 
2 of my clients are Canadian and "Way beyond " Wealthy . The spend most of the week as "Volunteers " at Feltham Young offenders " Prison and have done for the last 10 years . During this time they have also worked in other LOndon Prisons. They truly believe the whole system is a mess and it wont be long before the entire system is "privatised " Just like in the states and a prisoner is seen as ONLY a "income" . Yes many see prison as a "Kudos " due to their stupidity and manipulation by gangs etc . But the system needs to really only keep dangerous people away from society .Another answer needs to be found to deal with minor offenders and to keep them away from "Prison culture" which is frightening

There are quite a few DCMF prisons in the UK and have been since the 1990s.
