they'll be up to the same old tricks when they get out.

 I think it is Saudi Arabia who amputate theives limbs, surely without a throttle  hand and left foot, they would then be unable to ride or steal another bike again.

 Tattoo 'theiving cunt' to their head as well.

Come on Mr Cameron, you gonna stand for this BS on your watch?

i'd put the cunts into a room with the riders they stole the bikes from, with a selection of 'tools' for a few hours.
