Where do people do all the unpaid work here on the island? I mean really. Do Island Roads take them out to shove asphalt into a crater?
They work in the charity shops sorting smelly old clothes.

Reading between the lines, some crimes actually have no real punishments at all. In those instances, crime actually pays. No wonder lots of people have no fear of the Police or the courts and most will probably have been committing similar offences before they are eventually court so it’s win win for the crooks. The whole judicial system needs a major overhaul.
‘caught’, not ‘court.
why do those that get sent for community service work out of view of the public they should be out side in high vis jackets picking up litter etc,let the public see them work,or back to the stocks
I agree.No punishment at all.Bring back Judge Jefferies! Today we have no standards,no discipline and certainly no punishment.
