this sounds like the work of the jack of all trades he is well known in the kent area for stealing farm stuff
i will see wat i can find out using my many contacts elliott huh

Thanks! See what you find!

Someone was telling me yesterday that a local farmer had his pick up stolen, and it was seen driving around ashford still with his private plate on! It was followed back to a big camp near by. Police were notified but they didn't want to go in and get it!

The police cannot keep backing off these rats, the sooner you hit them very hard the easier it will be to sort

Heard several incidents where people know of their stolen stuff in local camps and police refuse to go in. Local one here where chap had ford transit stolen and could see it in pikey camp. Called the police who came out to him but would not enter the camp. He then tried to go in himself to retrieve it as it was his livelihood at stake. The police would not let him which obviously wound him up. Ended up with him being arrested and never got van back.

Our local contractor had his telescopic handler stolen, obviously to order, and probably went to the same camp as your transit.

When the buyer reneged on the deal, it was offered back to the contractor for £5k !!

Again the police did nothing!

I believe the pikeys still have it and are using said handler for tree cutting, the rozzers still do f all about it.

Such a scenario such as you describe would NEVER happen, cops go in regardless..

If you are a country of laws' which you obviously are, then those laws apply to everyone.......once you have selective law enforcement it becomes a bit of a slippery slope.

Sadly, our police would rather sit and catch folk speeding than actually sort out known repeat offenders from certain groups of people.

You're kidding!!!
Got any details? I know a plod or two who will be interested.

The 'heavies' (the big coppers that handle pikeys) were supposed to be in touch with the contractor two weeks ago......no call as of yet.

One officer was trying to get a meeting to discuss security at the site and you can imagine the response considering they haven't even followed up who nicked it!

And another thing: the handler was reported stolen in Kent but very close to the Sussex border. It wasn't even logged in the Sussex system, he had to ring and report it to Sussex as well as the systems are independent. Unbelievable really.

Unreal,
I might just drop a line to them, see what they say.
Had pikies coursing right next to my house the other night.
Took half hour for a car to arrive on 999
Disappointed in that response.
