    In the 70s and 80s when they done a blagging they used to have it away on their toes !

    How thick can you get? For starters these dumb ***** didn't even bother to cover their faces, for being so stupid I hope they DO get 10 year, just to teach em a lesson. Honestly, what sort of dumbo does a blag without putting a bally or some other disguise on?

    You seem more concerned that they didn't do the blag properly than their thuggish criminality.

    Quite. I'd rather dumb, inept, criminals than good, clever, ones.

    It's an article from The Sun. Surely your first response should be, "Did this really happen?"

    I don't know, I didn't look at it. As I said, I lost interest when I saw the link was from the Sun.

    Can't we just introduce forced conscription for people like these idiots and send them to Afghanistan where they could be put to use checking roads for IEDs

    What would you prefer, the Guardian? Perhaps Socialist Worker?

    Years ago I read about two blokes who tried to hold up a bank and they made their getaway on pushbikes :D


    well a quick getaway in city traffic would be easier

    A crossbow? That's... sort of awesome. Clockpunk burglars. :D

    Anything that isn't a cheap tabloid, doesn't blindly lie about everything from tacky showbiz gossip upwards, and doesn't throw actual journalism out the window is favour of clumsily trying to badger people into keyboard-mullering outrage?


    'Newspapers' like the Daily Mail and the Sun don't get rubbished because they're right wing, they get rubbished because they've proved time and again that they're insanely unreliable. If it was down to unfair treatment of right-wing papers, you'd see Telegraph links getting automatically ignored as well, and I don't know about you, but I can't recall ever seeing that happen.

    I was going to say anything good, but I think this puts the point across better.

    Well done, I thought a "Broken Britain' had escaped.

    I'm doing my best to support your campaign.

    Britain has certainly gone downhill since the Tories got in........

    Britain went downhill years ago, numerous governments have been in power since, the do-gooders of this god-forsaken country are responsible for much of the downfall as well. :mad:
