Just What Is The Point?

Jupp said he was “shocked and embarrassed by his behaviour” and “apologetic”, Brighton Magistrates’ Court heard.
Yeah, they all say that. But inactions speak louder than words...
But despite getting a community order for his crimes, Jupp failed to turn up for unpaid work and did not respond to a final warning letter from the probation service.
So now he's where he belongs, behind bars. Right?

Don't be silly....
Jupp, now of Sugden Road, Worthing, was given a new 20-week suspended sentence and was ordered to complete 140 hours of unpaid work, with 20 rehabilitation sessions, or risk being sent to prison.
Yes, and what would you bet me he won't turn up for this, either?

But hey, this is the UK...where Justice means something...

Something along the lines of being an exclusive, underworld joke.

We desperately need merciless summary corporal punishment. Starting with magistrates and judges.

I'll second that!
