Sounds about right!! I'm surprised the court didnt order compensation for loss of earnings..... after all he might have earned a few quid
selling his loot if he hadnt been caught!! This country is a joke!! The more i see, the more i think emigrating to NZ is a brill idea!!
^^^^ yep I'm with you - maybe would you clump together and build a transport plane to get to NZ locost style.
No doubt the criminals will be cliaming some for of compensation.

Iam utterly appauled. And to think that guy and his employee have probs faced 9 months not knowing if they are going to prison or not for defending
what is rightfully theres.......
Conversely i dont think the judge had much of a choice and was probs as lenient as he could be, similar outcome to the older coppers take on it,
however a tad more formal.
What is wrong is that people can rob knowing they have a good chance of either not being caught or getting away with it.
Sounds like the builder knew how far to take things without going too far. Sadly a lot of people wouldnt so its a more dangerous world if vigilantes
are openly allowed to do what they want.

If I could tie up people who break in to my house, car, etc. they'd be dumped in the middle of nowhere. I'm not calling the police as I
have told them several times, and I've told them several times that they DID hear me say that and if they bothered to protect victims by turning
up in under 3 MONTHS then I might have a different point of view.
Oh have you heard about this police pledge? Apparently our concerns are going to be listened to and acted upon. Let's flood the site with
concerns that we, as victims, will be sent to jail for protecting what we've worked for all our lives.
EDIT: The directgov site is sh!te for finding you local coppers to voice your concerns
