Dewsbury man ordered to remove ‘Polite Notice’to burglars from outside home

SHOULD Graham Jagger removed the sign from outside his home in Dewsbury, West Yorks? The legend reads:

“Polite Notice: There is nothing of value left on our premises… It’s already been taken… By Thieving F*cking Bastards.”

Police say they will arrest Mr Jagger unless he removes the sign. He;’s been bugled 10 times in the past four years.

Says Mr Jagger:

“They were out in less than 10 minutes to [warn] me, but when I phone and a proper crime has been committed, it’s days. I think it’s disgusting, I really do. I said I would make it more appropriate by removing some letters, but it’s staying where it is.”

Says police:

“The householder was given sufficient time to remove the offensive language and warned that if it was not removed they would be liable for a fixed penalty notice. No further complaint has been received.”
