I'm amazed anyone would be surprised by this to be honest. The guy's spent a significant proportion of his life taking the piss out of the British judicial system, why would we believe he'd changed? Hopefully we can legally still bang him up again when he's inevitably still knocking about in rude health in another six months.

He's still not exactly looking like he's fit as a fiddle, is he now?? At 80, I don't think he will pose much of a threat to the country.

Hit & runs, ram raiding even the worst offence of speeding, he's mobile now he can still do them and that home help care is expensive wink

I wouldn't bet on it. Those scooters are bloody dangerous and he's got form:

Fair point, I forgot that he might own a vehicle and therefore could be public enemy number 1 by virtue of exceeding an arbitrary number.

Send him down.

whats the lay of the land here?

Is he pardoned, out on license, out on parole, what?

If he's healthy, he should be in jail.
