James was saying that there may be mitigating circumstances. If there were, then the pre-sentencing reports would have brought these to light and have been made known to the beak.

The reality is, none of us will be privy to the full information. I'm not saying she shouldn't be dealt with or sent to prison. I'm pleased she has. and then deported

The main point I was trying to make is that I don't believe it's right or proportional to wish her / her passenger dead :y
I think you'll find I stated my point of view on that at the beginning of the thread.

Deported to where? I can't see in the article that she isn't a British citizen?

The Australian's have been doing it for years with people who, become citizens, commit crime and if the court decides you get sent back to your country of birth/origin. If that was allowed here be more room in prisons and some might think twice before committing a crime.

What's so funny? Is it because she's black or has an African name?

That doesn't mean she is an immigrant or that she wasn't born a U.K. citizen?

Two points here:
1) No one is ever going to be deported for drunk driving, and

2) We're not Australian.

Some of the extreme views on justice and the prevalent vigilante type comments on this forum never cease to amaze me

Indeed! :y :y :y

Always remember this:
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you".

No were not, but they do what we should be doing, on crime, and immigration.
