This is another reason to add to the many as why you shouldn't waste your time and money going to middle eastern places like Dubai.

After the British government the middle eastern lot have already "robbed" you at the petrol pump, why give them more money by going on a trip there.

For one thing at the very least the jet fuel to get you there and back should be free...

I bet you could have more fun sat at home slamming your cock in the door.

If the UK press is to be believed then all sorts of weirdness is tolerated in quest for a truly multicultural society -- apparently emphasizing "Britishness" is racist or something. Apparently the rest of the world isn't quite as tolerant. This guy offended local custom and law and continued to do this despite being warned once by a friendly cop (more than he would have got in most places). Oh well.

Alcohol and unmarried sex are 2 of the main reasons young people go on holiday!

Holidays to the UAE should come with a warning, that if you're unmarried and the cleaning lady sees a condom in the bin then both of you could be facing 6 years in prison for non-married sex.

Lets see how this holiday destination fares if the officials enforce the ban on alcohol and unmarried sex.

What makes this prison sentence seem ok is that these people were drunk and doing it on a public beach. The pair of them do deserve some punishment, but 3 months in prison seems a bit harsh in my western eyes.

Is Alcohol banned there?

Its been reported by the BBC that the couple were forewarned before there arrest about "rude" behavior in public, and they continued anyway.

Toss the book at them, and the (gavel?) too.....

I expect visitors to my country to abide by the laws here, as do most English people, yet when traveling to other countries why is it the English think they can do as they please? "acute schism between two separate cultures." My ass, He went there, its his job to behave appropriately as local laws dictate.

Recently a Radio 1 DJ was arrested and spend 3 months in a Dubai jail for carrying a tiny amount of cannabis resin (not even enough to smoke) his high profile didn't help him much, he still spent 3 months jailed before getting a pardon from the Royal family.
His response? "It was unfair, but I broke the law"

VINCE ACORS needs to man up, admit hes a fool, and maybe like minded English people might act a bit more responsible in the future, 
yeah I doubt it to.....
