OT Ronnie Briggs
On another forum I subscribe to, a very healthy discussion is going on as to
whether Ronnie Briggs should receive Parole and be released. Could the same healthy discussion take place here? What are the readers views? -- Mike The Royal Naval Electrical Branch Association www.rneba.org.uk |

Being as he was responsible for the death of a man whilst robbing I think he should have been hanged (or whatever) long ago, which would have saved the rest of us a lot of taxes keeping him in prison all these years. -- Regards Bob Hobden just W. of London |

Could the same healthy discussion take place here? What are the readers views? My views are - A. it's Biggs, not Briggs, and B. He should have been left to rot in Brazil. I couldn't believe how the gov't jumped the queue for him and got a passport at a moments notice, and a private or chartered jet or whatever, at our expense of course. It was blindingly obvious he only wanted to come back because he'd discovered what health and pension conditions were like over there. Steve |

Nevertheless, he's back here now, and in the system, and IMO should be dealt with, fairly, on similar terms to everyone else in the system, i.e. in accordance with the parole board's recommendations. Can't help but think the Government is using him to try to convince the public that they're 'tough on crime', him being a much easier target than modern day active criminals. |

When he has finished his term in prision he can then be released. |
