According to the ‘court round-up’ last week, people possessing cocaine, or cannabis, driving without insurance, assaulting a police officer, shoplifting, stealing, driving under the influence of drugs, are not fined as much as the two people that dropped cigarette butts, at over £400 each.
There has to be something wrong with our magistrates, or am I missing something?
