[Dishevelled Den]

I have reservations about this, if myself or the average person is nicked for speeding then 99.9% gauranteed we where speeding.

I suspect this will only serve those in a position to fight the case in the first place, crooked MP's and the like.

So I have decided not to support this one I am afraid.
If I am wrong please fell free to point out where I have gone wrong, politly please.

....agreed in part Manta however the proposals as indicated must breach the rules of natural justice - at the very least - as the quality standard for detection will not be raised to ensure that only those truly in breach of the rules are prosecuted.

If adopted these, and similar rules, will provide the state with almost limitless revenue raising potential.

In short, it is another revenue raising measure that disregards the right and expectation of each and every one of us to receive fair play from the state.

Thank you for explaining it to me so I can understand it Zulu.
Would almost seem part of the slippery slope we are on.

Me & the Wife have signed this. When I was growing up I was told by all & sundry that this was the best country in the world, the British were all about fair play & Democracy, innocent until proven guilty etc etc etc. As the years have flown by, I have become more and more despondent as my eyes have been opened to the injustices and petty regulation thrust upon the populace by one inept and corrupt Government after another. I have reached the point where I am genuinely frightened for my Childrens and Grandchildrens future, as there doesn't seem to be any alternative Party or Individuals with the  real interests of us the people at heart. We are slowly but surely becoming a sequel to George Orwell's 1984!

[Pete Elite]

Signed, And god help us all because this Government certainly won't .

[Ken T]

Signed, and there's a lot of poeple signing it, over 500 in a minute.
