So you want us to follow the Saudis' example?

Yet when they end up in court fines are set at maybe two pounds a week and then never get paid.

I would never have guessed that, unless they are just milking the system of course for 'bad backs' and depression, that's all to guessable :(

How do you prove it beyond doubt? We never used to prove anything beyond doubt and still don't today, fact is having a death penalty never stopped anyone from killing, hell having a death penalty never even used to stop people from nicking a loaf of bread...

Litter needs picking up, graffiti needs cleaning. Put them to work, unpaid.

there seems to be some success with this scheme in worcester ,however i have doubts as to how long lasting it would be as these type of schemes are usually the first to go when cutbacks are needed

Get rid of fines and replace with comunity work of various types be it digging gardens for people if fit enough to doing paper work ( belive me i run a small charity making some one fill out all the forms i have to do to get grants etc could easily class as punishment they are a nightmare ) for those less able

with the option if they wish to pay their way out of the work if they so wish if you really want money ( though i see that as the easier option lol )

well, quite (right) but does that mean we put the people who do these jobs on the dole? some really deep thinking involved, or should we all work for nothing?with some exceptions,(bankers, politicians,) for example.;)

If you can put your childish hatred for bankers to one side for just a moment you might just realise that whilst some people are currently employed in street cleaning and other jobs that can be done with minimal training there could be a lot more done and if people who are currently not working but able to they could be used to supplement and not replace those doing the job.

I admire the way you manage to turn every single thread you comment in into an attack on bankers and politicians :rolleyes: now lets see if we can devote the same energies to contributing a meaningful point on the subject at hand

Nope, judging by the state of the UKs streets, they could use the extra help.:)

who said that they need to lose their jobs ,it doesn't happen now and won't in the future
All that would happen is that community service would used to suplement current jobs and in some cases do the work that isn't currently being done because of cost issues
