Default You've got to admire the Scots!

Basically a fare dodger was holding up proceedings and being generally disrespectful and obnoxious so the 'big man' decided to help the conductor by removing the idiot from the train! I thought he did it in a very controlled manner however sadly I dare say that he'll end up being done for assault but it was nice to see at the end of the video the other passengers clapping him.

Police. We stopped this motorist and asked him for his documents.
When we saw his car wasn't taxed we dragged him out of it and slapped the little Whelk into stupidity.

You've got a way with words, Colvy. As for me, I'm just worried about Eric Pickles.
