PostsShould killers get whole life tariffs? 8th May 2014 11:00 AM Ray, think you have actually hit the nail square on it's head. Forget death penalty right wrong for now, but just simple logic to a crime that's been committed. Maybe its wrong to drag any recent news events in to this, but for armed robbery, it looks like you get a life conviction, but within a life conviction there are many different tariffs you could serve. Who sets these? I stupidly assumed life meant, well life, but it appears its around 25 years. Yet someone with 13 life convictions gets to serve around 8-12 years Top of the Shard! 8th May 2014 10:40 AM Yep - lmao - don't think the young lad was too impressed either! Financial Conduct Authority 8th May 2014 10:35 AM Hi Barney Can't really proffer any advice without knowing what it is you are doing, but if it's what i think you may be talking about then i do think you will have to register, but i'm many years behind with any new Regulations. One potential way forward would be to join forces with a broker perhaps? Must admit the reason i'm here is i fell out with the FSA (now the FCA)on certain issues regarding fees & commission. I think its wrong that they dictate full disclosure of costs in an insurance policy. Go & ask Tescos how much markup on a can of beans is and they will tell you to jump!

“I liked Hilary, whatever happened to her, she wasn't on the programme for long?”
Think she was ill & then had her own show on Ch4 for a while - not seen her since Bank Holiday season again... 7th May 2014 2:54 PM I dont know, Steve was winging about a single day off, just been going through some email responses and came across this - " Thank you for the email. Unfortunately, we are closed for holidays and the Summer period...We will re-open on 30th September. We apologise for any inconvenience this will cause and when we re-open in September it will be 'business as usual' and we hope that you will continue to visit us" Now that's a holiday shut down!!! Wonder if they have any employee's on either forced leave, paid or otherwise? Should killers get whole life tariffs? 7th May 2014 2:02 PM
“Well I'm with you on life meaning life. In fact I'd abolish the phrase and just say what the exact sentence is. Your man with 13 life sentences was actually sentenced to a minimum of 8 but had served 12 when he did a bunk. (He's obviously an idiot - he was going to be released on licence, now he's goig back for another long stretch.)”
100% agree - sentences should be set as tariffs and not as you say go in knowing you will only serve half. Also our man in question, wasn't the sharpest tool in the box in the first place to walk in to several banks waving a firearm without wearing his mums tights! Apple or PC 7th May 2014 1:49 PM
“As a complete non techie. i get given a lappy as a work horse, it dies usually within 2 years ( i have a gift!) sometimes 3, ”
Well was only saying about my laptop breaking abilities - left my desk to make a coffee, came back to a message on my screen, harddrive imminent failure! No idea what ive done, but this machine is definitely under 3 years old - another one destined for the bin! Bank Holiday season again... 7th May 2014 1:22 PM Thanks for that - yea did read something similar yesterday. Point i was trying to make was if they can use the moon & science to calculate his death, why not change his birthday - seems that we are just plucking a date out of no where to mark a date with no real credibility. I'm a Governor at a CofE school - will talk to the ex officio next time we a have meeting, see if he can convince me. Top of the Shard! 7th May 2014 10:01 AM Not for the faint hearted! Not a job i could do & not just 'coz i'm rubbish at cleaning windows lol |
