I'd be interested to see the statistics on tool theft, sign written Vs plain vans. Whether thieves target certain trades more than others or just take pot luck.

Have signed about ten of these petitions this year...none appear to get close to the numbers needed........ maybe we should have a petition to get all the petitions amalgamated?

Be good to get this over to the plumbers forum but WE don’t know any plumbers?

Surely a FB wizard could get 100,000 signatures in a week or two.

Hmmm, too busy to even investigate these crimes, yet if I went and hurt somebody's feelings on the internet they'd be round here like a shot!
System is broken I would say...

Just moved house and haven't sorted CCTV yet but do have wireless motion sensors on the drive and an alarm in the bedroom. There's also a baseball bat behind the bed to persuade anyone to go away!

I sign every petition for this as it’s one of my biggest nightmare having my van turned over.

I used to be in a group on FB concerning van theft, mainly to see if my model of van had any vulnerabilities. The amount of clearly stolen tools laid out at boot fairs and listed on eBay, Gumtree etc is ridiculous.
