I wonder how many trendy Edinburgh readers of this paper consume cocaine, keeping these evil vermin in business?

Johnny...Edinburgh isnt the only place that has trendy cocaine users...Fife is good at it also.

Who's kidding who? Those guys are not destined to remain in jail; money talks!

Are there any trendy cocaine users in Methil?

There is nothing trendy about a cocaine user...

this must be a joke,how can we justify taking their money when so many young lives were lost because of the drugs they added to the streets.i,m not saying that their famlies should suffer(BUT) nor should they prosper because of it.the country that these people are from should take that money and help the ones who,s lives have been ruined by it,put it to good use in a positive way.

2 billion for in exchange for 30 years jail!
What a joke!
In Australia they could have traded 2 billion for a 'five minute good behaviour bond' at the max and if their families were mentioned in their misdeeds they could probably claim a large compensation as well, for insult and loss of status within their family and community.
People here steal and trash $50K-$60K cars and get sentenced to 10 hours of 'community' work (if they're caught) and they usually have no "asset" incentives to offer for a reduced sentance.

I suspect that for $2 billion they have made a very cosy arrangement and business will continue as normal.
