This is truly a worrying bit of news.

Having been victim of a bunch of crimes in 2017/8 I can see it's true.

Party of law & order. Strong & stable. Holy sh!te.

The reality is a hate agenda is abroad in our country. Behind the haters / racists come the criminals & hooligans. I'd really hoped we'd moved on. My business / car / public liability insurance has gone up from £2500 to £1145 in 2 years. **** the non existent Police, to quote N.W.A.

That's a drop mate.

 

Yes, trying to make it up in other areas, but competition is tight & big players are strangling people.
Will be significantly worse off this year & I can see 20 Brexit / Govt rhetoric related reasons why.
I'm hoping Brad Potts turns things around for us.

 

No.

2500 to 1145 is a drop.

You're better off. If you ignore Brad Potts. He's a red herring.

Big player too, though not sure that he goes round strangling people.

Time for another slurp!

 

I'm glad you bothered reading the post. It was £250 to...

 

It’s like Germany 1930’s, crime rates up, immigrants to blame for everything all we need is a depression(Austerity?) and high unemployment.

 

We are already self-inflicting that one on ourselves.

 

This forum is like some sort of alternative reality sometimes, what has the rise in crime got to do with "haters and racists"?

You do know that the crime figures are higher for minorities than the native population right?

Do you really want me to post the figures or are you going to stop being idiotic/ misleading?

 

Watched a programme last night about "one-punch" killers. Apparently most of them cop for manslaughter because it's nearly impossible to prove they intended to kill the victim. One bloke got 3.5 years, but was out in half. Turned out he was back in the nick for committing GBH.

Watched another police show a few days ago, couple of lads on a burglary spree. Nicked tools, electronics, all sorts. 6 months. Six months, again, likely out in half, for shitting all over some poor bloke and possibly preventing him earning a living. We're soft.

 

Please, seeing as immigrants are actually less likely than natural-born citizens to commit crimes. Illegal immigrants who are at risk of deportation if they are caught are even less likely than that. The trend evens out by the second generation.

 

Here's the simple explanation.
Immigrants in any country tend to be poorly paid or unemployed. They can't afford decent housing and end up in ghetto like conditions where crime and drug abuse become a route out of or an amelioration of their poverty.
That doesn't make them angels, just victims of circumstance.
I've worked in estates that were full of "native" english and the petty crime was appalling. In fact I was robbed myself.
The propensity for crime comes from poverty and lack of opportunity not the colour of your skin or what country you come from.

 

Try proof reading mate.

 

my middle name is Donald, I miss-typed you wassock

 

Obviously, but you still got arsey with someone who took what you said literally.

 

Arsey? Peachey got arsey?

 

I forgive you. For you know not what you do.

 

the slings & arrows of outrageous fortune?

 

In your case just a couple of decimal points in the wrong place.

Your "slings & arrows of outrageous fortune" however reminds me that I ought not to use bastardized Christ on the Cross in preference to Shakespeare.

Forgive me.. etc.

 

Don't go riding round Dodworth on a donkey, with a crown of thorns on your head.

 

You do know they also get targeted more by police using stop and search
