Oh and he is an incredibly corrupt individual - and a total liar too! A "highly paid professional liar" Which is all any lawyer is lets f... |

| I am not reading four pages of this but from the first post... I kind of like the idea that they get annoyed by speed cameras. Why not go work for the American Government then, they are having a whale of a time oppressing the general public, much more than in the UK with speed cameras? I bet you als... |

If it wasn't my own tax going towards such things I would find this very amusing but if I laughed at this I am laughing at myself for being so dumb and funding it. How can you "evolve" away from funding people who lie to us continual... |

If I were a policeman then I would not really take it as serious if there was a white van with dirty plates, if they were so b... |

No, my original point is dirty plates in ANY conditions.
It is actually winter and grit on the road that causes this,
but I am talking about DRY conditions in perfect visibility,
there are cars with plates that cannot be read. They don't
clean it off, ever. |
