And what if one or more of those wrongly convicted has been disqualified as a result of those points, lost their job, their career, their home and their marriage?
What a HUGE compensation claim they could have. To quote from 'My Fair Lady':
"Oh, my dear, how simply frightful, how humiliating, how DELIGHTFUL!"

Oh please. They expect us to believe that they caught over a THOUSAND people 'speeding', and never once checked what the speed limit was the entire time until now? This is not acceptable: it is recklessness or worse. And as we know, it is a serious offence to furnish a 'reckless' witness statement.

Just saw a report on BBC Wales on this subject.

Apparently - according to inspector scam - this will not undermine the credibility of the camera partnerships etc. It seems 80% of the residents of north wales agree with cameras!

The reporter hardly gave him a grilling but you could certainly see that he was enjoying the whole thing!

no mention of compensation for those who may have lost jobs etc.

Apparently its all the contractor's fault! As ever!!!

3 years ago.......

Don't know about now though.

They are getting ever more desperate with their publcity spin.

Won't be long now before people get as fed up wih the same old SCP banter as they are with the crazy frog advert.....

I think he means 80% of people think cameras are supposed to save lives.

apparently that means you support their current use too .

Yes, the question is "Do you support the use of speed cameras as a method of reducing casualties" that 84% answered yes to. Of course, the partnership then spin this into support for the way they are using cameras.

80% seems to be the figure of choice now. on 5 live this morning 80% of people in london want to see 4x4's banned!! the good folk of north wales on a day trip to london perchance?

80% is the new "one third".....

So all of a sudden we have a society where we have a referendum on everything. If X% want something banned we get it banned (even if the survey is 0.001% of the population).

It is a classic propaganda trick of making those who have an opposite view feeling guilty, isolated or wrong in some way. Its b*llocks. I am interested to know why they asked the question in the first place. I think the only objective was to be able to use it in bogus reports so the outcome was already determined.

Remember we are governed by a party who have an overall majority and yet only one third of the population voted for them.

Everybody I know that lives in North Wales hates speed cameras with a passion. So my survey results (sample size 4) are that 100% of the North Wales population want all speed cameras and other traffic calming methods removed immediately.
