AN INDUSTRIAL skip was torched by arsonists.

Firefighters were called to the ski in Tennyson Street, Halliwell at 9pm on Friday.

It was feared the rubbish in the skip could contain asbestos but it was a demolished bathroom.

Crews remained at the scene for 30 minutes.

"AN INDUSTRIAL skip was torched by arsonists."

Just wonderin', like. Does it not give these numbties a bit of a buzz when they read of themselves as being "arsonists" that have "torched" a skip? Perhaps had the BN referred to them as being low-life imbeciles, or suchlike, then that might at least be a tiny step in the right direction.

It amuses me how this very headline appears every couple weeks or so.

Do you reckon these arsonists have a shoebox full of newspaper clippings, perhaps to show their kids someday?

With more CCTV per head than any other country in the world. How can it be that nothing is ever seen?
