She had a few glasses of wine and decided to go out for cigarettes at a nearby garage. Patrol officers spotted Appleby’s Audi A3 mount the kerb on Walden Road, S…

Thousands of officials should lose right to enter your home without a warrant, peers say Thousands of “faceless†officials should lose the right to gain entry to people’s homes without a warrant, under legal changes demanded by the House of Lords tonight. An amendment to the Protection of Freedoms Bill would mean that thousands of social services staff and environmental health officers will no longer be able to go into someone’s home without a warrant, or the home owner's permission. The only exemption will be police, fire and ambulance crew, and trading standards officers. Nick Pickles, a spokesman for campaign group Big Brother Watch, said the ruling was…

Criminal with 382 convictions walks free from court despite breaching bail 125 TIMES Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2107045/Criminal-breached-court-order-125-TIMES-allowed-walk-free-bail-shambles.html#ixzz1nb11T0XV Not see why Police bother with such criminals, there must be a good chance that this criminal will go about his activities again. The courts do not seem capable of enforcing their own rulings. New courts, New judges, More jails.

BBC link Well done guys/girls. I know some of the cadets were up and about during the weekend, so clearly good job everyone!

This has basically happened because of the pedophile ring case which has been going and is currently on trail at Liverpool Crown Court. Sadly I live here and what a disgrace, I know everyone is upset because of what happened, but those responsible are currently in jail/court and the businesses being attacked , half of them have nothing to do with the case, and the other half the premises where used, but when it was discovered, they were closed and put under new management. So innocent people are being targeted who had nothing to do with it, and a local bobby has been injured.

the roll out of an alternate 3 digit number should have happened years ago. I am disappointed though that they are charging for using this number. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-16495623
