"His actions in 2013 and 2014 indicates he can't control himself properly and in my view he isn't a fit and proper person to hold a firearms licence."

Totally agree with this also, I'm in the position that the licencing should be a lot tougher to get and penalties more harsh. But I wonder if the above factor did come into it also.

Bollocks

He should have taken care but he didn't so no license

He can live without it

The precious git should just suck it up
