The defendant responded by biting the victim’s ring finger on her left hand with “very great force”.

Try uk.local.birmingham. I agree. The subject of the story was an assault. Without more details, I can only assume that the fact that the victim was a cyclist is irrelevant. |

Oh, sorry, you would prefer to be the one dishing out the abuse. |

According to the criteria laid down by your predecessors, you spend the majority of your travelling time in a motorised vehicle, therefore you are a motorist. You're not part of the "we cyclists" minority, especially since you admit that you hardly cycle any more. |

Just one group of chavs scrapping with another. There is nothing in that report which suggests to me that Mr and Mrs Brady were louts (my interpretation of your racist term "chavs"). As they cycled by, they may well have felt it their civic duty to challenge the offensive behaviour apparently displayed by the three young women. The pulling of the girl's hair and punching her face by Mrs Brady does not appear, from the news report, to have been a criminal act, and therefore self defence. But I assume much, and cannot know for sure, but I certainly would not want to label Mr and Mrs Brady as "chavs" (or even louts) on the evidence from that report.
