Crime in the UK The True cost which they hide from you.
I was a firefighter in the UK for 30 years and I attended many car crash incidents, this incident I will talk about today was an interesting incident causing massive delays to everyone and a gridlock situation for over 3 hrs.
You will be shocked at the cost of this one incident.

UK is fucked has been for decades sadly...
Can you see a way back?
I am English. I love England. But sadly, England, like the Western world is over. I want to leave and I will be in a clearer position in 12 months as to where I will go. I know one thing, England is no more.
Sadly I agree with you. The nice places are very nice but the sad truth is it is getting very expensive to live in England.
Vote Labour.

Hi Les, if these lads did get a prison sentence that would be a another
cost of £49.888 per person per year to the tax payer, so maybe probation is the cheaper option, should stick them in the armed forces for two years and keep them off the streets, l feel alot safer and financially better off living here in Thailand I've got good neighbours to, say no more 555
I also worked for the Probation Service taking offenders out on community service and this is much cheaper than Prison, does it work, my opinion they laugh at this, they get a day out and do very little, soft option.
Dead right Les. It’s so frustrating.
I can’t help but watch what’s happening in the Uk and it makes me angry and so glad to be here.
I have to return to the UK for a couple of months, so many video's to come, reflection video as I left 14 years ago. Re-visit childhood places.
Being a retired FF as well, we were told this amount by a police sergeant, perhaps because of your own work in this area, it's an absolute disgrace that these people get away with probation, been to similar incidents as this.
By the way Les I'm also in Thailand for the last 8yrs , great vid relax and enjoy fella.
Thanks for that, I assume you have also been attacked at various incidents had things stolen from the appliance. These are not publicized as it may encourage more incidents. Thanks for your comment.
That's incident worth one million is unbelievable, I would have guessed within 50k!
Crime is expensive to society.
The UK is finished
The UK will always be a big part of me I grew up there and don't like to see what is happening. But is there a way back, I think not. Thanks for watching.
Hello, good video. I can relate to that story, as I spent 25 years working in the criminal justice system in the UK. I could tell you many true stories about what I've witnessed. Yes, you're right; some people should be put into custody, and the reason they're not is cost. It's crazy; you cannot put a cost on keeping the public safe.
I'm enjoying my retirement in Thailand also
Take care
Adrian
Thanks for your comment and confirmation of what I am saying, the public are unaware the true cost of Crime. Good to hear your enjoying Thailand also.🙏
i moved to Australia from England 20 years ago. Sadly Australia is just as bad as the UK now. There is not control over crime, particularly youths. Also cost of living here used to be cheaper than the UK now I think it is more expensive. The only positive is the weather lol!
I visited Australia for 2 months on my Round the World tour, Sydney was very expensive top 8 out of the top 10 things that can kill you live in Australia. So I hung my hammock in Thailand.
@@RetiredandLivingthedream ha ha i came home last night to a massive Kangaroo on my driveway, never seen a bad snake in 20 years, plenty of spiders and cane toads. The tourists in hire cars are more deadly!!! I think your hammock is in the best place in the world mate. I was there briefly last week for a week working, loved every minute of it
Hope you well Les Stay Safe
Hi Dave yep ok thanks, off to the UK for 2 months or so, my sister is ill so will miss Thailand, setting up vlogs for the UK ill see how much it has changed in 14 years.
I don’t follow your math. It’s just fiat money, no?
@@steveaustin1984 Everything in life has a cost to it. Ask the bean counters of any business. Nothing is free.
Uk been finished long time ago ,
I Can't see a way back. Not one good thing has happened in the last 10 years and more hardship in the future. Good Bye the good old days, whenever they were.
Hi Les, interesting story. I actually worked at the Vauxhall dealership at this junction back in 1984 when it was T Cowie owned. Now in Hua Hin which is slightly warmer than Redcar 555
Yep I would agree Hua Hin is lots better. I'm visiting Sunny Redcar next month for a couple of months. So a Lemon Top is assured. Thanks for watching.
And it cost £70k a year to lock someone up😅
In my probation working days it was 40,000 pounds Probation 40 pounds. Mmmm I wonder what swayed their decision. Thanks for the comment.
This story should be educated to young people/schools etc.. good content Les as it’s very interesting from your work experiences. Thanks for sharing!!
Much appreciated we did many talks at schools college and work places with hundreds of young people at some venues.
I enjoy your no nonesense approach to your videos. I am American. I lived in England and aboard in general. England and the us are turning into woke toilets. Western society is in decline. Love Thailand, hope it survives the nonesense
Thanks for taking time to comment, I agree and also hope the Asian Countrys do not follow Western ways. Greed.
Interesting subject Les..I thought maybe between £500,000 & £750,000..it took me back to my time as a copper..put the financials to one side for a minute and consider the human tragedy & human cost which can accompany such incidents..watching you guys cut cars open to recover badly injured and dead people, then knocking on doors to inform relatives that their loved ones were in a critical condition in hospital or worse that they were with the undertaker.. don't get me going where children are involved..
Take care Les and look forward to your reports from the UK next month..
Thanks for that, the police in my mind are on a hiding to nothing these days, must be frustrating all the work to get these people off the street only for them to be back on the streets very quickly. We had to protect a female officer in our Fire Appliance one night after she was set on by a Mob and her car was set on fire. Frightening for everyone. We have central locking on the Fire Appliances as we were robbed at many incidents. Enjoy Retirement and thanks for doing your service.🙏😀
im sorry to say the england that you and i grew up in is long gone , it started to diss appear in the late 70's , i think if guys like us want to live in a half way descent society we have to look over seas , it could be south america some where or s e asia , its not england though sadly , take it easy see you on the next video
Thanks for that, born in 1960 we grew up in a poor town, poor parents but were taught respect manners and morals and scruples, society misses these now. Bring back the good old days.
They should get an equivalent of a student loan. Repayments to be taken from PAYE for the rest of their lives. They will only stop if it costs them money
These groups of people survive on Benefit's if you take money from them then the will commit more crime, sadly it is a never ending circle. I wish I knew the answer.
I was going to say £500,000 but you surprised me with the figure of £1m, how much would it be today? 😱
Crime pays many people and the Tax payer pays. One Criminal Lawyer I seen collected his clients up in his Porsche car ( Legal Aid Lawyer ) Criminal defender he will never run out of work.
I view this differently as I’m younger than most of the people commenting. I’m 40, my place is built in Thailand already , England is more expensive it is what it is most older guys love a good moan but let’s face it the bad attitude of the brits is hitting Thailand hard just look at the news and will effect the visa cost of you lot there on a permanent basis in the end and the pensions won’t cover it that is for sure. The Thais will only put up with it for so long until enough is enough.
A rather negative view of this, ( no offence ) The Brits always Moan, in the UK it was almost always about the weather. If they don't moan then there must be something wrong so they moan.
My opinion of Thailand is at the moment it is fantastic, live the moment as it does not last for ever. Life is too short for what if. Here Now is ok for me. Thanks for taking time to post your views.
@@RetiredandLivingthedreamit’s the Thai way to live in the now, there is no tomorrow, for a farang to adopt this outlook in my opinion is wreckless but as they say we’re all different.
@@JohnMartin22222 he is retired, not sure why living the moment would be (w)reckless
Yea I got screwed in Australia . Lawyers are a scam
One things that really bothers me is we give drug addicts methadone for years costing tax payers millions and people on end of life care suffer because the NHS can’t afford pain medication
I have other stories about this also, a methadone user I got to know doing my Job was on Methadone for 14 years, he was unable to work so Benefits give him extra as he was on Methadone, they provided a nice house because his gf just had a baby, also a methadone user. and on Benefits. He still did the odd burglary he told me just to top his income up. Wow.
Much the same here in OZ Les. The Sudanese community in Australia are DEMANDING that the Australian Government give $50 million in humanitarian assistance to help those that are suffering from the civil war back in the homelands. Apparently the $20 million their currently giving isn't enough!
Insanity. Tell them to shove it.
Same everywhere i guess..in sweden it costs more than the military does every year..and thats only for those residing in sweden and then we send alot more outside sweden to..
The U.K. should look after their own 1st but sadly they don’t. Well yes they look after those who belong to the Jolly boys club
@@Mylle1974 Crazy stuff Myile, I've always considered myself a "Socialist" I'm happy to pay a fair amount of tax to provide for those less fortunate. But it's now going to far IMHO... We don't look after our own, instead squandering $$$$ like it grows on trees!
250,000 Pounds Les ???
Are you shocked at 1Million. Tip of the iceberg are criminal issues every day. Thanks for watching.
GBP 1 Million?
125,000k
Thanks for the guess 125,00k would pay for the cars to be repaired or wrote off and the traffic light.
Do you pay tax in the UK, if not you have no say!
Yes I pay tax in the UK so I have a say,
@@RetiredandLivingthedream Good man. I should have watched the video all the way through before spouting off!🤔
For someone retired and living the dream, you spend far to much tine time worrying about the UK.
Things that happened years ago are still on your mind.
Guess its lucky the Thai drivers are so good and there are very few accidents here.
If the guy had of gone to jail how much would that have cost the taxpayer ?
Enjoy the dream your are living stop talking about the UK
Thanks for the comment, perhaps your looking at it differently than me, I realized the UK was on the slippery slope and I recount what was happening many years ago, now jump forward to today has it got any better or worse, I am a News watcher and I see it every day. Looking from afar it has not got better. As you mentioned about Thai drivers and accidents, I never said Thailand is perfect, every country has it's faults including Thailand but for me Thailand ticks the boxes I require. I live a great life here and suggest to others not just in the UK if your Country is going down the drain like all Western Countrys ( Name one that isn't ). One question if it was your car that they crashed into causing you injury would you be happy with probation? for the offender. Have you ever been a victim of Crime? No deterrent in my mind, here in Thailand no one wants to go to Jail, Crime is very low here compared to the UK, The punishment here is severe, What message is it to give if you steel less than 250 pounds worth of goods from a shop in the UK there is no punishment. Mmmm. I am returning to the UK for a couple of months and will be doing various video's in the UK maybe you should avoid these video's.
Why would they chase someone in a stolen car on a populated area?
Because he stole it? Populated areas should not be a place to go to avood justice even tho some thinks so..
What would you suggest just let them go? They did this in London with the scooter robberies once they too their helmets off they stopped chasing them. The robbers knew they would stop. Where is the deterrent.
Les we are too soft in this country,and the prisons are full of foreigners
@@RetiredandLivingthedream Well, "deterrence" as a policy has been proven to be wholly ineffective on the people that need it the most.
Laws and policies designed to deter crime by focusing mainly on increasing the severity of punishment are ineffective partly because criminals know little about the sanctions for specific crimes. More severe punishments do not “chasten” individuals convicted of crimes, and prisons may exacerbate recidivism.
People who have nothing to lose don't respond the same way to "deterrence" as people who actually have something to lose (people like you and I).
Productive members of society respond to deterrence. Criminals do not.
