Oh yes- I forgot about the other kind...

I wish that were true (at least there'd be a chance of them doing something more productive when they get out). Sadly, I suspect they'll get an education in further barbarity and general criminality.

Former special constables can afford Maseratis???

the fact they were giggling and laughing maybe means they aren't hardened criminals yet and there is hope.

Really John? Is that what you glean from the fact that the defendants were openly joking and giggling in the Crown Court throughout their sentencing hearing (as the Court was played video of several of their robberies including one where a woman's earring was ripped out)? That's a good sign?


I'm afraid in the real world its a sign that they are hardened to the Courts and don't give a monkey's, or have any respect for the Judge and are not afraid of going to prison. I suspect if you worked in the legal system and regularly witnessed the attitude of quite a number of those convicted of robberies like this, you would not be quite so naive. They didn't just start committing crimes just this last year, obviously!

It is widely reported that they all had 'numerous' previous criminal convictions starting in their early teens and were also at the time of their robberies subject to criminal behaviour orders (and so were apparently completely unconcerned about those as well).

Mopeds used in these attacks are often stolen so offenders are untraceable.


Mopeds have been stolen at knife point.. Moped 'Gangs' have used acid to steal bikes.


This is part of a Massive crime spree.

If these crimes were being carried out by 'Religious Extremists' they would be treated as Acts of Terrorism.

Which is in effect what they are, and need to be treated as such.


4 years (out in 18 months) is not enough. Realistic sentencing is needed. In a Hard place.

These people are dangerous.

I would imagine that due to Human Rights issues they will be incarcerated somewhere near where their families can visit them

I remember a 15 year old at my school printing off his mug shot from the Met Police Most Wanted site after the Zampa Road trouble and disseminating it everywhere- he was PROUD of it.

    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
