This is very poor by the Derbyshire & Northamptonshire Police Services; https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ck7l8ey1v33o A fake police officer terrorizes a woman driver on the M1. The woman reported the incident straight away and gave the car's reg number to Police. And even after dragging their heels in a mostly botched investigation the Police managed to identify the offender and confirmed he is not a Police officer and never was. But they are going to do nothing about him. They aren't even going to speak to him face to face. I think this woman did the right thing refusing to stop. She did well not to panic, in a situation where one split-second driving error could have led to a high speed crash. But her complaint has been treated with contempt. If the creep involved does manage to flag down a woman driver on the motorway in future and attacks her, what are the Police going to do then? Offer their sincere apologies? Nowhere near good enough. PS: I'm pretty sure there are a few people in the London area pretending to be Police on our roads. Not stopping other drivers maybe, but using dodgy looking blue lights fitted to otherwise unmarked cars to force ways through congested traffic. Two or three times I've witnessed this, and thought to myself that just doesn't look right. I know there are genuine Police unmarked vehicles which can flash concealed blue lights if they need to. But these cases I'm thinking of they just didn't seem genuine to me. Unfortunately I've not got any registration numbers.
The Garrick Club has decided to admit women as members for the first time https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-68972358 What is the World coming to? https://www.theguardian.com/society/gallery/2024/mar/19/garrick-club-notable-members-in-pictures It'll all end in tears...
What's the King doing being a member of that Club? I thought he believed in woke stuff like gender equality They wouldn't have his Mother as a member there, unless being Monarch made her an honourary man in their view. Is Harry a member? They ought to black ball him for being an insufferable Oick.
According to Harry's memoirs he killed 25 Taliban fighters with his chopper. He should do adverts for Viagra. That one's for free Harry
Oh no! It could only happen to Rishi... Another of his back benchers has defected to Labour - minutes before PMQ's! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-68977175 "The elected prime minister was ousted in a coup led by the unelected Rishi Sunak. Under Rishi Sunak, the Conservatives have become a byword for incompetence and division". "The centre ground has been abandoned and key pledges of the 2019 manifesto have been ditched. Meanwhile the Labour Party has changed out of all recognition." So says the MP for Dover.
And here comes another Classic from the Party of Law and Order... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-68976494 70 days off your sentence! Party time...
Only joking of course, but this is in the wrong thread. It isn’t news and current affairs. This has been going on since the mid eighties. That’s about 40 years !
