Typical Criminal
Mask on his face

On BBC1HD London News
one driver sleeps in his van
to protect his tools.




Today as they drove past Parliament


[A Kent roofer who had £3,000 worth of tools stolen
in the time it took to buy a coffee
is backing calls for tougher penalties for thieves.
Dennis Richardson, from Maidstone, said:
"We were out of sight for a couple of minutes
at a coffee shop.

"I've got a family, and we've got to eat,
we've got to pay bills. To suddenly have
to find £3,000 is not easy," he said.

The government said it would continue
to work with the police "to explore ways to
tackle tool theft, ensure justice
for victims, and punish criminals".

A bill is going through Parliament,
tabled by a Hampshire MP,
which seeks to impose harsher
sentencing for tool thieves.]

Sadly Not.

Some have gone under,
as they can not afford to replace all their tools.

I think if you steal tools from a trader you should have your hand cut off

video it and put it on tiktok and have your face full page in your local paper

All benefits banned for 5 years and if you live on a "site" banned from the local area in a 200 mile radious

There should be bait vans
Tools with air tags in them
Police should go to the car boot sales

I’ve got an idea, lock your van when you leave it.
