Go live and work on a rural farm for a few years, have your farm machinery regularly stolen, your fuel siphoned off, your vehicles stripped for parts, your fences and gates rammed down, your food freezer emptied, your livelihood constantly taking a hit, then give comment on the same subject with the same stance.

Check local pawnbrokers and Cash Converter type shops, it's amazing how short a distance stolen goods travel before they're cashed in. However, you may have to buy them back if you have no physical proof of ownership.

Your outrage is duly noted - however, I'm pretty sure I made no comment on any of the above; I was merely commenting on this silly attitude that Tony Martin is some kind of hero for defending his property like a wild west cowboy. He was a very poorly guy, who had been censured for use of illegal firearms before, and ended up doing 3 years, and subsequently living in his car. I also understand he's been done again since for the same offence, and has most recently found a warm welcome in the BNP.

On the specific issue of the OP - I have much sympathy - I've been there, and it's a horrible and frightening invasion of your space that never really leaves you.

Vasty - you get extra points for making burglaries Jeremy Corbyn's fault, rather than the loss of 20,000 police officers over the life of the Tory regime; maybe you should send that scoop to the Daily Mail?!

Not me mate I leave blaming Maggy Thatcher for everything to you lot. I wasn't blaming 'there's only one Jeremy Corbyn' (thank the lord) for anything that's already happened. How could I he's been a non-entity for most of his life.

No my friend I was pointing out what will happen - if you think it's bad now and tbf it could be better it would get a whole lot worse.

Just as a matter of interest how do you right on lefties justify supporting JC when he's probably more rabidly pro Brexit than Nige hiself?

Yeah right

The way Corbyn wants to run the country is how past owners of Wakefield Trinity have run the club. Spend what you don't have and worry about who is going to pay for it at a later date

Vasty seems to be one of many who believe that there actually is a depression in this country and that it's not something perpetuated by the Tories to keep the likes of thee and me (and Vasty) in their place. Take a car ride through the towns and cities of Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Surrey Vasty and see how depressed they are.

I don't have this fake socialist luvvie chip on my shoulder. I'd love those who preach this leftist crud that life in the UK is anything other than a picnic to taste reality. Poverty in the UK is a myth British people don't know they are born. Go live in Syria or Burma or 90% of the rest of the world then you'll realise how lucky you are.

Where socialists get this sense of entitlement from is beyond me. Life is hard live with it or better still why don't they sell there house give up theirs holidays abroad and give the money to the poor? Mhmm thought not.

Actions speak louder than word and Corbyn and co have a Gamdi complex just minus the sacrifice of course.

At least the Tories have the decency to admit they are greedy self serving parasites. Labour are so self righteous they actually kid themselves and the gullible that they arn't.

I'm sure I'm offending a fair few but that's my opinion and I believe free speach does still just about exist in this horrible country of ours.

It certainly won't if Corbyns Stazi get in .
