When this was first reported I said the law was an ass and it seems that not all who work within the legal system are as stupid.
Today the Attorney General, Dominic Grieve QC, argued their sentences were ‘unduly lenient’. As a result, Birmingham City fans Philip Bancroft and Adam Daly are each starting three-and-half-year sentences. Personally I don’t think its long enough especially when Bancroft and Daly had previous convictions for violence. Bancroft was jailed for GBH in 1997.
While I am really pleased that justice is being done I am also angry and frustrated that there are idiots, such as Judge William Andreae-Jones , working within our legal system that haven’t even got common sense let alone the enhanced sense of what is right that we pay them for.
How must our police officers feel. The frustration levels must be through the roof.
