In what for a moment had seemed an official act of exquisite cruelty, the Crown Prosecution Service charged three men under a 19th century vagrancy statute. The outcry was quick and wide spread. The ostensible victim, the supermarket behind which the dumpster ("skip" in British) was located, interceded on the side of the men. (When you think about it, removing items from a dumpster adds value to the dumpster, since it obviates the need for more frequently paying to have it dumped...) Parenthetically, the British coalition government sucks.

Jolly this story reminds me of the book Les Misérables (disambiguation).by Victor Hugo,.
Examining the nature of law and grace, the novel elaborates upon the history of France, the architecture and urban design of Paris, politics, moral philosophy, antimonarchism, justice, religion, and the types and nature of romantic and familial love.
Hugo explains the work's overarching structure:

Good thing the book wasn’t censored. It was first published in 1862, that is considered one of the greatest novels of the 19th century.
