Bike thefts at stations 'decriminalised'

The British Transport Police will not investigate many categories of bicycle theft, the BBC learns.

@afewbugs Oh, FFS. Still, as long as the police treat drivers equally... Car gets nicked when it’s been parked for more than two hours? Tough.

>20 years ago my car was taken from the car park at work. The police 'found' it a week later but only because it was on double yellow lines outside some flats and one of the occupants had reported it to them. It had been there all week without them noticing.
