Quite a contrast between the paper's picture of the killer, and the smiley cartoon on the

death. :-(

But what purpose does a long prison sentance serve?

Surely it'd be better to take away his licence for a set period and have it drummed into him what a
prat he's been. Hell, get the git sent round the country to tells kids what a fool he's been.

Sadly, can't see it happening - the public wants its blood.

Well, considering the dumbass didn't have a license to start with, suspending his non-existent license wouldn't have had a lot of impact.

Err... He didn't have a licence.

Also he already had a criminal record for previously driving without a licence and insurance.

It wouldn't work with morons like this. He's already had a chance to 'reform' yet continued to flout
the law. It was probably inevitable that he would end up killing someone.

No. The public wants to be protected from killers.

Small point of fact. I don't think Roger Geffen is correct about the deaths of cyclists on the
roads. If there were 10 cyclists killed daily, they would constitute the majority of *all* road
fatalities. They do not.

I don't think Roger would have said that - I think the paper has misquoted him.

Paul Warhurst, the bass player of the Gargoyles was *not* the killer of Mr Little. He himself was
killed on his bike nine days after this tragedy. The killer was called Tony Redfern.

Sorry. The text on the scanned image was very small so I must have misread
it.

That struck me as well. I thought the total road deaths per year was about 3000, so if he's right,
they're nearly all cyclists.

Which branch of the Government issues licences permitting the holder to keep any goolies they have
after punishment?
