    I agree with HumanPenguin but your stance is a bit silly.

    You don’t need to be an expert to know you need a licence, everyone else and their dog is expected to know to get one. There’s usually multiple signs around rivers and lakes stating a licence is required. Ignorance of the law is never accepted as an excuse by councils, police, or courts.

    It sounds like he’s done right and remedied it, but Lammy doesn’t work alone. He has a team of people, and not one of them organised a licence. It’s either a case of incompetence or a case of thinking he’s above the rules and got caught. Both are bad optics for an already struggling government.

    Don’t they look tired?
