Another scumbag drugged up looser will be along soon….
Still mr lonely you sad old goat
Ask fred, it will all be the tories’ fault!
I would have expected this from a Godshill resident, but certainly not a Ryde resident, the world is going strangeways.
Saw the results of this arrest, I think the entire Island force where involved with this one crim!
No wonder everyone else is speeding around the Island like
Lewis Hamilton
Why not name the scrote
If gets charged with all then should be locked away for a long time,why not send to Rawanda? .
Yep. Not just Rwanda, you could deport him anywhere. Give him his passport, stick him on a plane and bar him from returning.
A vauxhall tigra,this wasnt a pursuit!
he was just taking the car back to the hairdressers!
More scum just put them down..waste of life.
hmm, quite a list of offences… they probably ought to check his insurance, MOT and VED, I’ll wager he has none of these 🙂
It’s not known as NO MOT Isle for nothing
If plod walked along most Roads and checked vehicle registration numbers on
Car MOT check website, they would have a field day on this lawless Island
Car MOT check is the website
Tow them away and crush them
