with the proposed introduction of on the spot fines for assault, how long before there are people who save up their money for a weekend of violence, like others save up for a good night out? anyone with this mindset could take out enough cash on a saturday night, safe in the knowledge that the only punishment they'll get is charged 80 quid, and begin assaulting innocents on the streets for fun.
or how about mugging someone, then paying the inevitable charge with the money taken from the victims wallet?

anyone up for a night of ultraviolence?

i fear that this may be the future.

But Kenny, it's a well known fact that people save up for weeks for a night out and they end up meeting you, they are definitely going home skint!
