Earlier this week Island Echo reported on how to keep your home safe this Summer – https://www.islandecho.co.uk/how-to-keep-your-home-safe-whilst-youre-away-this-summer/.




















































































Why do people need to steal so often when there are so many job vacancies offering good money on the island. The retail firm i work for are offering £11.00 an hour.
So far the only applicants are those on the dole who are pretending to be looking for a job
Because some people don’t actually want to work – they’d rather claim benefits and produce children.
The workers that we did have, we made feel unwelcome, and they went back home. Welcome to Brexit Britain
They should be forced to work, if they refuse stop the benefits and put their children into care until they see the light…
There’s plenty of pot holes to fill in for a start, teach them that they have to work, and when they’re kids see them working for a living, then they will grow up better kids…
you should be put into care!
Because they know they’ll get away with it , the justice in this country is a complete utter joke as is the benefit system ,where you can sit on your backside all your life claiming everything and all you have to do is pretend your looking for a job and cock up any interviews you may get. There’s loads of vacancies at min so why are they not saying if you don’t take the job your benefits stop oh I forgot its all about human rights!
£11 p/h doesn’t buy your illegal drugs…
Stick him in the sand with his head pointing to the sun for a day that will do it
Take his mobile phone away from him, people would cry like a baby with out their mobile.
out far during low tide !!
Years ago the Island was a lovely crime free safe place.
Over the years so many people have moved to the Island and have changed the Island forever.
It’s not just the island It’s everywhere, created by Woke Far Left Ideologies thats ingrained into society, or should I now say Community’s…
this is now the selfish generation we live in.
More scum will be along soon….
Isle of plight stick him on a boat to nowhere
I’m glad it’s not me. The comments really give him a bloody good going over!!! Mind you, I agree with them all. Countries turned to shit. Bloody do gooders
We all feel the same way & the problem will only get worse with house building & immigration. Should all write to our MP. I wrote to works & pensions minister about layabouts getting too much for doing nothing.
With the current situation, I would send anybody with anger issues or problems with re-offending to Ukraine to help, that might teach them a lesson about integrating into society with respect.
