Boy, aged NINE, caught drink driving... but police let him go because he can't be held responsible

In Cumbria, the police arrested a boy after they found him drunk and driving. When they found out about his age however, they let him go because they feel he can’t be held responsible for his actions. This, because the boy in question was only nine years old. The boy was just one out of more than a thousand of under eighteens arrested in the north of England over the past two years. The Cumbria police said to try their hardest to keep the roads safe of any young people driving under the influence of alcohol.

This shocks me. I think it is ridiculous that children of  the age of nine can get their hands on alcohol, let alone on a car. Where did they get those things? Don’t they have parents that tell them it’s dangerous to drive without a license, let alone driving under the influence of alcohol? I think the boy has to be held partially responsible for his actions, by giving him a minor punishment. There should be a way to teach him it is irresponsible behaviour and that he brought other people in danger. I also think the parents should be held responsible for this.

Killer of 15-year-old boasts 'I done him' to witness

After killing another boy, the assailant waved his arms in the air while triumphantly yelling "I've done him!" The police said the victim was attacked in a confrontation with other youths just after 4pm yesterday. Paramedics took the boy to the hospital, but despite everything they tried to do to save the boy, he died at 10.30pm. An eyewitness of the crime saw the killer run past. At first, he thought it was a joke because when the man asked the boy what he'd done, the boy answered: "I stabbed him!" An officer said that they do not yet know what triggered the killing.

It is something ridiculous that children just start killing each other. It's like we're living in 400 B.C. where everyone had to kill to survive. I don't know how this child got his hands on a knife, but I do know that it's ridiculous he had access to it this easily. I hope he gets sentenced to a life in jail so he knows what he did. He ended another boys' life, probably over nothing really serious. Where is the world going when even children can't live in peace anymore?

Long may she rain! Slimline Kate Middleton gets into shape as she braves the elements for last engagement ahead of big day

During heavy falling rain, Prince William and Kate Middleton walk through the Darwen, Lancashire for the opening of a new school. Kate wears a streamlined shape suit like a real style queen instead of the floaty, A-line silhouette she has gotten so familiar with. She walks around with an oversized black umbrella up high which she carries herself. She and William have a lot of people to visit and a lot of things to do, but Kate looks her best. She even lost some weight for her big day. The wedding will be an official public holiday across the UK.

Kate Middleton was, as we all know, a pretty normal English girl, she just happened to know the prince of Wales. But thankfully, she stayed that same normal girl, even though she is going to marry the next king of England. She carries her own umbrella and she holds it up high so she can see the crowd. I think this is great. She obviously cares for the English people, because she pays attention to them. It is a bit of a shame that she lost weight for her wedding, because she already was extremely slim. Kate is and will hopefully stay a normal British girl.
