I think the Tories beat him to it.

 

He obviously doesn't have much time for Musk but this version has more credibility than the "latent Nazi" tirades that some would prefer.

 

Always part of the process. It's horrific but also important for people to know the facts of what he did imo.

 

I do get that. Unfortunately it's given that murdering **** the chance to get himself thrown out of court. I bet he refuses to hear his sentence in person as well. Personally, he forced into court to hear his sentence if he refuses, even if they have to drag him in by his hair.

 

I’d struggle enormously to write what I think should be done to this “thing”.
Edit: Life imprisonment, even solitary is way, way to lenient for him.

 

Agreed. I made the mistake of reading some of it a little while ago and I feel sick to my stomach.

The effects on the survivors are almost worse than the killings. That poor dance teacher saying "As a 36-year-old woman I cannot give myself compassion or accept praise, as how can I live knowing I survived when children died."

 

The ability of a President to pardon convicted criminals is in itself an absurd piece of American justice. Maybe there is a place for it when a suspected political punishment has been unfairly dished out by a previous regime but as we have seen, even that can be abused.
What happens in the USA has an influence on this country to some degree and I can understand there is interest in this over here.

But what I can't understand is the absolute anger shown on this thread to what is going on in another country while playing down the deliberate, complicit and dishonest handling of the rape gangs in our own country. You can't do anything about the absurdity in America but you can protest about what goes on here. Those crimes were horrendous but every excuse under the sun has been wheeled out for not holding an independent national enquiry looking solely into the corrupt organisations that allowed them to continue. The whole thing stinks of a cover up with politicians afraid of what an inquiry may unearth. It should incense everyone from all political persuasions but apparently decisions made in America are what gets posters really angry.

 

I'm sure his segregation will slip at some point and he'll get a good hiding or maybe coco'd whereby boiling coco is accidentally spilt through an open grating above.

 

Rudakubana refuses to enter court for sentencing. ****ing coward.

 

Rudakubana given life for all counts of murder/attempted murder to be served concurrently, must serve a minimum of 52 years.

 

About the best that can be expected given a whole life term wasn't possible.

Hopefully he serves less than a year after a screw makes a 'mistake'

 

Nah, death's too easy for him. I'm sure there are plenty of inmates who know how to extract maximum pain without killing someone.

 

I am not a parent myself, but how demonstrably bad does your child have to be before you shop them or refer them to mental health services.
Appreciate the enquiry will give us the full facts and local authorities will no doubt be the whipping boys, but what can parents do?
Are they living in denial?

so hard to know what to do with people who have such dangerous mindsets and fantasies, whilst living in a “humane” society

 

He was referred to lots of services. Shameful that he wasn't stopped beforehand.

 

Indicative of the lack of resources after years of austerity.

 

Mrs Godders went shopping in town today and came home with a new shirt for me. It was black. I said I don't wear black shirts and she said the shops are full of them and she said black shirts are becoming very popular. Then we saw the ****ing irony of what she had just said.

 

When driving back from Nottingham the other day I noticed the new logo on the signs at the edge of the city.

It's ****ing horrific. What was wrong with 'international maritime city'? You know, something which actually represents the city's history.



Worse thing is I bet they paid some prick 6 figures to come up with that load of ****e. Can't get ****ing bins emptied correctly though the useless ****s.

 

That's dreadful and I'm only exaggerating a little when I say that design might even be dangerous. When I looked at that logo I assumed I had something in my eye that had made my vision go blurry.

 

Not quite but it was around 80k
