john if it was your child that was murdered by venables, i'm sure you would feel justice was not done.

I did say, "If we are dissatisfied with the way convicted criminals are dealt with under the law we need to lobby our (your) MP and get the law changed, so that it reflects the wishes of the electorate. But don't hold your breath, I know hardly anyone has, or will, go down that road. Most prefer to just complain to the converted."

Just for the record, my brother was murdered, so I do have a different perspective on this than maybe most. I also have had close contact with both victims of crime and perpetrators. Sorry I believe, you may not agree, that gives me a better insight than many, to make reasoned judgement.
