Think I’d better not say anything.

Four arrested and out on bail. Probably get a few hours community service. Scum!

What on earth is happening in this world? Shame. R-

Where damage is caused the judge should make the perps pay back every penny it costs to put things right, plus compo to the aggrieved for stress, etc, even if it means the toe-rags have to earn community money by way of a new government scheme.

The system is too soft on these animals. They should bring back hard labour for prisoners and the work house (new equivalent) for the dole dossers. Make them all earn their place in civilised society.

My heart goes out to those people who's layouts they were. Years of work, time, money and passion destroyed in minutes by mindless prats!

There are no words to convey the disgust I feel for the perpetrators.
