Where do the Royals get there money from and how much do they spend? 1805pm 24.7.24 probably a faux "report", then… that said, makes my offical request for a few quid for bus fares seem somewhat pish poor and laughable re: the reaction it recieved… as though i'd broken monte carlo or had posited the idea that we should go and rob fort knox. dunno where the royals get their cash and i can't say i have given it much thought. still, being focusse don one's own crappy set of affairs means little re: betterment of oneself….or where being flush is concerned….
Platt at this again i bet ya dad david platt from the village collyhurst ashamed of you and uncle jed as well hope ya mother likes her son after this ..
Wait. Is this the descendant of Platt of the plantation of 1800s
I visited Manchester once in my life and I will never go again.
Crap jail sentence.
Imagine being 32 years old and still acting like a rebellious teenager, snatching people's phones while riding your cheap a$$ bike.
Well well well
40 weeks is too little, 40 months inside should have been the sentence.
A common theme here, women need to be more aware of their surroundings.. the streets of Britain aren’t safe anymore..
He probably stole dozens of phones, not just three, people don't even bother reporting this kind of crime to the police anymore as the police aren't interested, so the number of phone thefts like are likely to be vastly higher than police figures.
David Platt ? is gary lineker on his bike too.
So he not living on coronation street anymore 😂
Usual suspects
I got my phone snatched yesterday. The phone itself was not expemsive as samsung blocked the mobile internationally and can be sold as little as £100 only but the memory I have in that phone will not be purchased by millions of pounds
Basically hold like £200 in cash in your hand & not expect it to get taken? 😂😂😂
