al4x Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 (edited) I'm not usually one for signing up to petitions but this is Gordon taking liberties again. Seems like if you go to court to fight an unjust speeding ticket etc and get cleared you'll then have to pay the costs despite being found innocent. Makes the court system an absolute joke, people will have to accept unjust fines etc as it will be too expensive to fight them http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/news/default.asp?storyId=20842 Edited October 21, 2009 by al4x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clutey Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Tony Blair was quite the dictator and got away with it for years, why should Gordon be any different. The innocent have always been **** on and the criminals get away with everything, and that includes the MP's with their expenses, crazy. At least **** Turpin wore a mask, not these gangsters.

kdubya Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 a simple way of getting you to admit / accept every nazi like penalty imposed like a good little controlled sheep, or you pay the bill to get your name cleared? an absolute charter for bent cops this one? they can hit you with anything knowing it would cost dearly if you "objected" the sooner the rogues in office now are booted out the better, griffin must be laughing his socks off, especially seeing as this has come from "the minister for justice" the lot of them especially jackboot jaqui want stringing up at traitors gate.

PWD Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) I use to think a bent cop was a myth..most of the ones I encounterd were all OK...then I got stoped using a hands free ...cop looked at me ..smiled and said..well we can say you just put that in didnt you..he knew he had made a wrong call but wouldnt let it go ...paid the £60 and took the 3 points ..would have cost me nearly a grand to appeal ..OK so they arnt bent per sey ..but an a**hole like that cost you a fair bit in fine/extra on the insurance and all for 3 years , and for following what I thought was the correct method,but the appeal was just to costly a method ...only joy I got was letting a really smelly wind go when I was just getting out of his car...really was a bad one ..suprised he didnt do me for assult . Whole thing leaves a bad taste ....not as bad as the one I left him I hope Edited October 22, 2009 by PWD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klunk Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 This is straight out of the Sheriff of Nottingham's Guide to Popular Government (along with no retirement, no pension if you do retire, no help with heating for pensioners, no free TV licenses for pensioners, etc. etc. ad nausiem). We're getting all this just because the country needs to replace the money that the jellyfish at Westminster (all parties) haven't got spine to stop the ******* bankers and MPs looting from the national koffers. It makes me seethe. Grrrr.... You bet your life I signed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
