Maybe different if you had to pay for the HM lodgings and look after the baby yourself!

Credit card fraud and theft of around £500, a minor offence?
Next time I'm a bit short maybe you wouldn't mind pointing me to where you leave your wallet?
As for paying lodgings for her and the baby, I'm doing that already and so are you. She's one of our recent new arrivals and on every benefit going.

Only reason to call a copper these days for anything but a physical attack is just to get a police report for insurance purposes.
You were lucky not to get done for wasting police time reporting the incidentComment

Originally posted by Turion View Post£500.....hardly Brinksmat proportions is it. Less than a days pay for many of us. Cost of the justice far exceeds the crime. You will get the cash back from the bank so you're covered. Woman made a mistake and now has a record. If she tries it again, punishment will be more severe.Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment
