    This is getting a lot of publicity today 05 April.

    Great to see this lot getting their collars felt, but a few questions arise.

    All these people were unemployed but yet seemed to be living beyond their means.

    Were they claiming benefits and if so for how long?

    How could this have gone on for such a protracted period.

    How much more of this kind of activity is going on, maybe on a smaller scale?

    Why the big 'hoo-haa' over what seems a very obvious collar, given the amount of lawbreaking and assets recovered.

    Wht will be the outcome and punishment for those involved?

    A lot of questions remain unanswered in this area, I feel

    But thankfully you've asked nearly all them in your OP BB.



    Only one arrest or did I mishear the reports?

    So far, Humber... If the publicity generated today is meant to raise awareness I would suggest that follow on' coverage' up to court appearances and sentencing is required.

    One can't help feeling this is the tip of the iceberg.
