What a bunch of misfits, let’s hope Jeremy Hunt cuts their
Benefits.
Crazy that you’re completely uneducated about the flaws in the benefit system and how the new rules will affect people who are unable to work but have not been found eligible for disability benefit as of yet. Tories ruin the country for everyone else but the 4% of the population their policies actually benefit, kill the rich.
looking forward to april when hamilton goes to court in Portsmouth. saw his minder today in Sainsburys. what no range rover ??????

Homeless shelter housing criminals again at our expense if they commit a crime why not ban them from the place let them live on the streets
Busy week, surprised anyone would be able to put up with the constant beeping of not wearing a seatbelt
You can buy little clips that go into the seat belt stalk to stop the beeping, handy if you place heavy shopping on the passenger seat..
£220 fine with £90 costs and a £88 surcharge is absolutely disgusting for not wearing a seatbelt. You get less for laundering £200,000 or stealing hundreds of pounds worth of alcohol and meat from a shop
All you have to do is plug the seatbelt in! You don’t need to buy anything!
Seat belts should be up to the driver. Should not be told what to wear in your own car.
I could get in a 65 year old car and drive without a seat belt as it doesn’t have one, so why should I have to wear one in my Skoda Yeti just because it does have one.? I don’t use the cigar lighter socket, will they force me to use it.?
It might not have been set up like this but having seat belts prevents major injuries to yourself; though your thatcher mindset will encourage us all to “look after ourselves” the best thing your doing (if you really dont care about your own life to not wear seat belt) is saving the climate, nhs budget through costs of ambulance ( more than likely our money from the need from an air ambulance ) do i need to go on? But your right … being an idiot isnt a crime so your free to go.
I’m going back in to get the stuff from the storage unit and I’ll bring them back when I’m finished
is that a secret massage for a drugs run
just another day on the isle of wight.
As usual a all bunch of scum.
Lots of repeat names again, everyone gets off with a slap on the wrist. Crime does actually pay at the moment, unless you are Nick Groves from Spanners Close who got quite a big fine for yet another court appearance. Public menaces, the lot of them.
oh wow the courts are making a fortune.
So many driving convictions, but little else from the police and with nothing much more expected!!
Would you prefer to see Island Echo weekly court round ups filled with stabbings and murders?
If driving convictions are the main crimes on the island, then that is a good thing.
Equality ~ people should be free to choose what to wear in their own car. If a law was passed saying you had to wear a pink one piece tu-tu and a crash helmet and ski gloves, would you obey your masters like a good boy.? Or would you do what is best, and the most comfortablest for yourself.?
