I can't explain it but maybe with the other things, the coincidence of police stopping you a couple of times makes it appear malicious? If the police are stopping you on a few occasions maybe you should look at getting some driving lessons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Flint Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 There is nothing naive about what I am saying here. Constables do the legwork. I don’t dispute that from time to time, individual officers may get a picking into someone, and give them more attention than might be due. But to suggest things like ANPR being loaded up with markers that aren’t legitimately provenanced is naive in the extreme. To suggest an individual who was making a pain in the arse of themselves to the establishment would be getting special Constabulary attention is beyond the pale. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek, your third sentance is worrying tbh. That some officers get a pick into someone. That is wrong on every level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anyone Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Don’t forget the constabulary have an enviable record of tolerance and even handed ness on the island. Just think back over the years at the absence of prejudice and political interference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is wrong on every level. Yes, but it happens. I’m being realistic. And when it gets brought to supervisory attention, it gets dealt with. Cops, as an entity are not perfect. In every organisation you have people that will sway from the values set. Trick is to bring them back in line, or if they won’t comply, ensure they are removed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 (edited) There doesn't seem anything further to discuss on the Dr Glover topic, unfortunately. It was severely wrong what has happened, Ashford has cocked it up, we are the poorer for not having her services, and this is a waste of talent and skill at the worst possible time. Ashford shot himself, and us, in the foot. That will be held against him for a long time. Unless and until Dr Glover resumes her role and work with / for the DHSC on the island then the situation is in limbo. The best thing the DHSC can do is at least listen to her advice on Twi or FB and 'pretend' not to be listening, and then do as she recommends.

At least that's what she has said, IIRC from a posting somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is about personal relationships & it's rarely the fault of a single party. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
