Justice, 5x as long for stealing 30,000,000x less.
But he aggravated his sentence by being homeless and surrendering himself.
While the other guy was a billionaire, and we can't be putting people like that in jail, because they are us.
Or them as the case may be.

Women have been socialized completely out of trusting our instincts. I tweeted yesterday that emotions are a COMPASS. And you should not suppress them

What the UK needs is massive change.
End Brexit.
End the House of Lords.
Tax the rich.
Renationalise all the essentials, Water, Power, Rail, Mail.
And change it so they can't be privatised again without a Referendum.

As C4 explains, children of single farmers with the average value of a farm (£2.2m) will pay £140k tax. It’s zero if the farmer is married. The govt plans mean farmers will receive a £1.5m tax free allowance. That’s £1m more than the most of the population.
