Title: GO TO JAIL.....?
Post by: MikeDundee on 13 November 2006, 08:11:32
Talk about folks without common sense, well these these folks are certainly not lacking that. Out of work?, then it looks like you could become a drug addict, go to jail, go cold turkey, then sue the prison service. This country is just going from bad to worse I have to say >:(

Yet more blood sucking legal lot trying to milk money from the state......it sickens me.

What is worse is that they are settling out of court rather than letting a judge throw it out and stopping all future cases.....

 :o this is a true story....front page headlines in Scotland the other day. And i happen to know personally people involved.

Head of Purpose built young offenders institute suspended.

Wie works there - nothing to do with his conduct  or any wrong doing where she works - but apparently at another institute in the past offenders were hit with golf balls.

You may think theres nothing wrong with that or you may be offended. That is not the issue.

The issue is the young offenders are all now in line for 6 figure compensation payouts  >:(

reported in Herald by the way

Faster than you think, these 6 are test cases out of a group of 198 who are already lined up to sue.

What we need is a new Australia, how about the Antartic....

There's no fear of punishment to make these people think twice.

It would take about three decades of zreo tolerance to get back to some sort of "normallity"

Dogs, Country,  make your own sentence

Me too - I prefer to use the rather ample air horn to rant for me.  

Remember a horn is for life - not just for Christmas  ;D

This is the worst contry in the world to live in   >:(>:

we are plagued by criminals, that make a living on it - i get more stories on this than most of you guys as my wife is a social worker - its gotten to the point even she ( the majestical do gooder hates her job) I phoned my wife at work the other day who tells me she was about to go and spend the last of the weeks unit money ( she works with young offenders) on DVDs as the boys were restless  :o >:( restless ?  lock them up in there cells then!!

we are also infested by so many million immigrants that the goverment does not know the true figure. We need to follow Australia, USA and even Netherlands and have tough stringent ADACEMIC and FINANCIAL checks on any one coming into the country to ensure they make relevant contributions.

Sorry rant over

Comment was that they work unsociable hours, there's only 24 of them and they're 4 men short.

Any takers?

I knew I made a mistake and should've become an electrician, and went to Birmingham instead of London ;D ;D
