Default 2 jailed for railway graffiti

Some societies are prepared to tolerate a
regime like that in Singapore - the UK wouldn't.

Why not? We used to have as harsh a penal code (if not harsher) than
that in Singapore and it was not only "tolerated" but an example to the
World. From where do you think Singapore took its example?

Is "penal code" a phrase used in any of the various legal systems in
the UK?

When was this "delightful" era and when was it abolished?
