YET more horrific stories informing us of a woman found dead in a car boot, a young heroin addict jailed for stabbing a neighbour, a sex beast attacking a pregnant woman...
and so the list goes on.
However, it is becoming highly likely that a slightly eccentric man, Mr Bostock, may well be jailed for -- wait for it -- collecting litter! Please tell me I'm not alone in feeling that the phrase 'getting your priorities right' has been grossly overlooked here.
