    ' Sussex Police have confirmed that a thorough investigation is under way. '

    So they logged it... and then had a coffee break.

    Why do we even bother with a police force any more. Even if they did find the thief, he'd be in and out of the police station before you could say 'where's my laptop' pointless.

    doesn't seem to be an idiot, more like he understands no one is gonna catch him (or doesn't care being caught) and so being so cocky

    I'd have thought the reasons for a police force were obvious. For a start, we need someone to persecute .... I mean, prosecute .... all those speeding motorists. And, of course, beat up peaceful protesters. And someone has to provide politicians with bodyguards, or the Home secretary wouldn't be able to go out and get a kebab again.

They should do what they do in the US and put them in orange boiler suits and make them work cleaning up the streets.

    Most judges these days in the papers just seem so devoided from reality that they don't seem to have a clue.
