This was an interesting video, and I watched all the way through.
The video highlights the complexities of the law surrounding bailiffs and repossession orders etc.
I for one am, and remain deeply concerned about the calibre of individuals the courts are appointing, and their complete disregard for the rule of law and a private individuals rights. I am definitely not a 'tree hugger', but the steady erosion of the common mans hard won rights does make me very worried.
I also think that the police need to be better trained/informed for dealing with such matters, as they were clearly out of their depth on this occasion.
'There but for the grace of god go I' remains an appropriate choice of words in this case.

What amazes me, is the people that go into that sort of job, seem to think that the persons they are sent out to, have got themselves into debt on purpose.
The guys in the Video made several sarcastic comments about the fact that they "Pay their bills".
The thing with a mortgage is it is a very long term loan, and in the 20 to 30 years you have it, your life "WILL" change a huge amount... We all hope for the better, but in reality, there is always going to be down times.
Having had a very close shave a couple of years ago ourselves, our eyes have been scarily opened to how easy it is to go from being able to pay your mortgage fairly comfortably, to being right up the creak with out a paddle, and days away from loosing the house. Luckily for us, we had someone watching over us, and a well timed PPI payout gave us enough grace to get ourselves back on our feet. But at the time, we were desperate, and people coming round with that sort of attitude may have just been the catalyst it took to take me over the edge. They are asking for trouble.
But.... while these guys are right about the "letter of the law", and it is good to see them stand their ground, one up for the little guy, surely they are just delaying the inevitable, after all, it is only missing a signature, which takes a day or two to get, so what do they really get out of it, other than higher blood pressure, and 2 days grace.
Fat blokes dont always= hard.TBH i would have lost my rag and gone for them.But the guy did the right thing.id have had no chance, and it pisses me off. those big blokes were so intimidating and its not necessary. I'm really glad this chap Loz sorted them out, although to be fair the police were as usual just standing there not really doing much. Apart from the girls. who were stood there looking FIT.
It also shows,Peaceful resistance,by law cannot be met with violence and intimidation.By law that is.(Not always the case though)maybe so but it shows them that the little guy wont always be the pushover that they're used too

That's what I thought too. But the point that Loz? is making and was proved right at the end, is that this was an illegal repo, they had no authority from the courts because the judge had not signed the vital form. The meat head Bailliff said 'I do 50 a week'.
With the correct paperwork Loz? knew they could do nothing.
I'm glad I watched this video
yupHe knew the law,and i reckon if it came to it he would have given as good as he got.End of the day the bailiffs were just fatties.Nowt special in my eyes.What I liked about Loz is he looks like he could handle himself in a fight. But he knew he had a more powerful alie on his side, the law.
