Distressing times - A worrying spiral of violence

IT HAS been a distressing few weeks for anyone who cares about how our society values itself and anyone who values human life and dignity.

We have seen two Polish men murdered in the most brutal and seemingly off-hand way. Teenagers are the focus of the investigation into these terrible murders.

We have seen a schoolgirl bound, gagged and assaulted in a schoolyard by a gang of her classmates.
