Government 'criminalising young'
The government is too quick to criminalise young people for petty offences where informal punishment could be more effective, says a report.
It is not just the young who are getting criminalised in a petty way, the older generations are getting penalised for dropping litter and over filling dustbins etc.
And you get your photo taken and put on police records just for attending a peaceful demonstration!
ReplyDeleteJohn,
ReplyDeleteThe country's bankrupt. Raising desperately needed cash by cheapest means possible, a raised dustbin lid, enjoying a ciggie in a vehicle, both heavily fined.
Dealing with REAL criminal activity is expensive. Innocent people who face/report feral gang menace are increasingly detained. Why ? It's cheaper to target the innocent and exonerate the guilty.
Government wastes millions on 'quango's'; but is too cash strapped to maintain law and order.
John,
ReplyDeleteA firm in Kent has produced a machine that turns household wste into fuel and electricity. 100% eco friendly, it sorts mixed rubbish ready to be recycled.
Vantage Waste Processors - it's on their website. The technology could save councils millions of pounds, put an end to landfill sites (subject to EU levies and fines).
The £136 m wasted SATS contract with an American firm - sacked due to incompetence with a £15 m payout, could have been used for power and fuel generating waste processing plants.
Everyone I know will NOT pay proposed bin tax. We will deduct it from ever increasing exhorbitant Council tax.
It's now impossible to be straight. We are all criminalized in some way.

ReplyDeleteI personally encourage street gangs to beat the fuck out of the minor offenders, but the law forbids it.
When I get grief from these types I offer them a drink: if that don't work we know where they live and they have a long walk home with many bruises the next evening. No police.
They don't police the villages. Feckit.
What flabberghasted me was that they passed a law that youth cannot wear hoodies in malls , nor travel more than 4(?) to a group, lest they be labelled a gang.
ReplyDeleteSo, now much like Saudia Arabia, our clothing preferences are dictated, not by The Gap, but byb legislators????
I don't have to leave England- England left me!
The government is too quick to criminalise young people for petty offences where informal punishment could be more effective, says a report. Ex-Youth Justice Board chairman Prof Rod Morgan criticised an "extensive net widening" of the use of summary powers such as cautions and on-the-spot fines. His report for King's College, London, urged assessment of the development.
