Whatever became of this hollow New Labour promise - "Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime"?Originally Posted by lestaxi1
what is this country coming to!
If I was in power I would say that any intruder breaking into someones house forfits all their human rights.
Anything what happens to the intruder is tough luck and it would be illegal to bring any charges against the householder.
So the message would be ok we cant always stop you robbing *******s breaking in but once you have done so you have no human rights and any injurys you sustain you won't be booking an appointment with injury lawyers for us
We need a return of the rope, cane and longer deterrent jail sentences in prisons that put the fear of god into criminals. Also while we are at it bin the European Convention on Human Rights.
