Moustached? Lots of our coppers have barely started to shave yet, cute little bunch they are, fresh out of police college! I'm often not sure if they are real coppers or kids on work experience. .

Perhaps because our TV Channels are buried in programs on CV19, to the point where everyone is sick of it. Any magazine here featuring CV19 articles probably wouldn't sell. Here's a sample from yesterday (Thursday) evening: 5-30 to 7 pm, BBC1: One and half hours of almost entirely Covid...

Here's an example of how silly regulations can be. I've been out for an exercise walk in my crowded locale on this hot and sunny day. With many fewer travelling on this holiday day I only met four pairs of people and we all observed plenty of separation, well over two metres. During that...

In other words, anyone can go out at any time, since cash points are open 24/7 and most things can be shown to be essential at times. Another completely unnecessary and pointless regulation. All that was ever needed was clear and simple ministerial advice and police commonsense, there was no...

They are getting reprimanded though. Northamption Chief officer was firmly put right and now Home Secretary Priti Patel has bent the ear of Northamptonshire's Chief officer who has now apologised and said his language was "clumsy". She needs to deal with Cambridge now where the idiot police...

Now she needs to speak to the Cambridgeshire police too it seems, with them presuming to inspect Tesco shelves for "non essentials". If I'd been that Tesco's manager I'd have booted them out with flea in their ears, the idiots. .

Indeed, the last Waitrose I queued at outside was like being at the annual motor show as I admired all the exotic cars driving in and out. None of them were electric though, so I couldn't criticise with my near £30K e-car also in their car park! :D .

Truly moronic. Meanwhile in their area as everywhere else, Machine Mart, Screwfix and similar are open to supply a vast range of hobby and gardening items that are very far from essential. .

Nothing at all, and that is it's strength. It means the only thing the police can do win our consent is to apply the commonsense and tolerance that allows us to readily agree. .

They're closed. That's probably why he's being a verbose nuisance. .

Yup, as I posted, the work of the Devil, with a bonus. .

This is why I criticised the way the government kept stressing the two metres, since they've given the public the impresssion that at two metres they are safe, which is far from true. As I've previously posted, the statement should have been: "Try to keep as apart as possible from others at all...

He's obviously an idiot who is inviting strong public reaction like that which Derbyshire suffered. The police chief I was listening to on a BBC Radio 4 news specifically said officers must not do that. I haven't heard any ministers asking for such actions, and how can a police officer...

And their moats not clogged up. .

They are literally putting their lives on the line, but exempting them from tax and NI creates a number of future problems with records, pension entitlements etc, once this crisis is long past. A better solution would perhaps be a single lump sum bonus to each and every one of 30% of their...

Which is precisely my point about the regulations needing to have flexibility in their interpretation. Rigidity is always wrong. The latest police chief making a prononuncement to his force has got it right. Explaining on radio today, he has told his officers to use their commonsense and given...

Where they get things done! .

Another 6 and they could have blamed the Devil. .

Surely they can't be, the military and police are in charge so their results must be good. Or wasn't that what you posted? ;) .

This link shows it's possible, and not so far from you either! .
