A gang of forgers are currently on trial in London after trying to defraud the Bank of England out of billions of pounds.
Their cunning scheme involved the attempted swap of £180million in "special issue" £500,000 notes and £28billion in £1000 notes.
All went well until they approached the BoE with the funny money and the banking specialists pointed out they'd never issued a £500,000 note.
On English pillock and a group of Chinese "businessmen" will probably face a hefty fine (I reckon £50) if found guilty as the British judicial system is a ludicrous joke...
In other jail-related news, there are now two gaols in England which have been set aside purely for non-Brits - nice to see the current government still favours foreigners over it's own people, well played Mr Brown!
And finally, Pete Docherty still isn't dead, but he does seem to have walked away from court a free man despite 15 drug and other offences.
Not so much that the law is an ass, more, it's been taken up the ass...
