Respect Squad called in by Jock "The Hammer of the Hoodies" Reid

Auntie at the BBC announce a typical hard hitting, anti-crime, anti- yob, anti-dog, anti everyfuckingthing in the eternal battle in the war on children.

10 high powered , high camp, hit men (and maybe women- but who can tell these days ?) can be called in nationwide, instantly, by Local councils, MPs and police chiefs to help tackle cases and causes of "yobbishness".

First problem ... ahem , is find the right person at the Local Council, your fugitive MP, and you can never find a copper when you need one.

New Labour. New Minister. New Ideas.

Mr Reid said today, "We need to rebalance the criminal justice system so that people believe that it is truly on their side," he said.

Where are they now ? Mr Blunkett ?

Mr Blunkett , July 2002: "The White Paper is designed to rebalance the criminal justice system in favour of the victim and the delivery of justice for all....

....over the next three years we will invest more than £600 million in information technology. That will help us in joining up the criminal justice service." Hansard 17th July 2002

Well up to a point Lord Copper ....
