"A guy raped a 12 year old girl last month and got only 180 hours of community service! But no, there's no two tier policing, and there's a fair justice system." Where on Earth do you get your misinformation and lies?

The Two Tier British justice system can move remarkably quickly when it suits a politician from its own circles. Just not when it suits the Post Office post masters.
