limit access to legal aid for repeat offenders

Additional Information

This country currently spends millions of pounds annually on the provision of legal aid for people who offend repeatedly. Not only do we - the taxpayer - provide them with everything else, we are constantly paying-out to defend those who assault us, rob us, steal from us, damage our property & burgle us etc. I have personal experience of this and, on a weekly basis, see the same solicitors representing the same people (many of whom who have 50 + convictions), over and over. The solicitors usually string the case out to ensure a maximum lay from the legal-aid golden goose. STOP THIS TRAVESTY NOW AND LIMIT THEIR ACCESS TO A MAXIMUM OF 1 FREE CASE. Why should we - the victims - continually pay to protect the criminals?
