What is this country coming to? There is no justice for the innocent, those who abide by the law of the land. This is the Queens law... or is it?

I really do believe it’s the politicians’ law and there is not one politician with any backbone to deal with the way things are going.

It seems they are frightened of upsetting someone’s mother or father if they put their wayward son or daughter away, but would rather let them carry on committing crimes until they commit the ultimate crime, when some poor innocent person loses his or her life because these people have no fear of the police and the courts.

The way things are going, is no matter what you do, no matter what crime you commit, be it GBH or ABH, drug pushing, rape, abuse in all forms, beating someone, to get a prison sentence you have to commit the crime three, four or five times over.

What this message is sending out is ‘do what you like’. This country has no backbone to deal with people who enjoy breaking the law.
