This couldn't have been better reported in Brass Eye's programme, the peadophile special, dealing with the hysteria that the media drummed up about the issue.
Austin Tassletine, South West, UK
How utterly ridiculous, anybody with even the slightest idea of how satellite navigation/tracking works would have known that this would not work, but as usual another load of public money is wasted by the idiots at the top. Why not just castrate the pedophiles, or stick them back in prison where they belong. I.E. as far removed from public society as possible.
Simon, V.Water, Surrey
I wrote to Mr. Blunkett about exactly this problem in 2005. My letter was ignored and the Government subsequently wasted tens of millions of pounds. We should, I suppose, be grateful that it was not billions wasted, which is de riguer for New Labour technology projects these days.

Oh God why do they bother................give the offender a ball and chain then we'll know what theyve done without asking then we can give them a wide berth...................... Eyes in the sky...........where do these politicians come from. Hello, get a reality check.....................
