Call me callous but I don’t see why the tricolour should be lowered in memory of a British prince.

Judge Martin Nolan, everyone.
Hands down a 2 year sentence to a a non-violent, non-dangerous young man caught in debt for possessing drugs and drug money.
Meanwhile, a man who tortured a woman half to death gets a suspended sentence from him, walking free.
Make it make sense.
A plumber with no previous criminal record who agreed to hold cocaine and drug money to pay off a €350 drug debt has been jailed for over two years.
