there seems to be a natural law: you can't lead if you are competent.What a pity competence isn't a requirement of PC.
That seems to confirm another law: the more you are capable, the harder you'll be made to work.

I wonder which propaganda rag fed you that piece of information. Perhaps you should care more about what is happening in the western world as a result of the rise in fascism than interference from the Russians.The Russians have been involved in a massive campaign of subversion via social media.
Target: Female in the most senior policing role. TICKAnd here's the most senior police manager in the UK:
Many will remember the botched police operation that led to the killing of innocent electrician Jean-Charles Menezes. The officer running that operation was Chief Superintendent Clarissa Dicks, and the subsequent inquiry ruled that it was very badly run.
But when it came to a trial of the police officer who pumped seven bullets into the innocent man's brain while two other officers held him down, he was acquitted and the jury conveniently ruled that Clarissa Dicks was not in any way to blame! Either that jury was composed of those who think the police can do no wrong, or it was fixed.
Later in 2011 Clarissa Dicks was promoted to Assistant Commissioner and then somewhat mysteriously resigned from the Metropolitan Force and joined the Foreign Office in an unspecified Director General role. At the same time she was awarded a CBE.
Two years later she was brought back to the force as The Metropolitan Commissioner in sole charge, and shortly after revealed she was gay, her partner Helen also in the Met. She's a daughter of a senior tutor at Balliol College, Oxford, had a very privileged education and was fast tracked in her early police career, gaining a philosophy degree in criminology during her service.
She's obviously an establishment figure and fits well into today's PC environment, being both female and gay. What a pity competence isn't a requirement of PC.

I am fascinated by the fact that the Right wing haven't got used to the idea that Russia isn't Communist any more.I wonder which propaganda rag fed you that piece of information.

The country with which we are alleged to have a 'special relationship' is currently presided over by a racist idiot and one of the most dangerous political leaders on the planet.

If you d8veh want to believe that the Russians are dangerous that's fine with me but I believe the biggest dangers to the UK lie much closer to home.

It wasn't a rag that I read it in. A couple of Russians that are involved in it told me. They said you can win more in the media than you can in the battleground.I wonder which propaganda rag fed you that piece of information.

On that we can definitely agree, otherwise why was so much money invested by the Leave campaign in Cambridge Analytica, by the Conseratives, BeLeave and BritainFirst campaigners, plus of course who knows how many more parasitic hangers on?It wasn't a rag that I read it in.

Indeed, Putin has made it very clear how opposed to a return of communism he is, both in statements and in coming down hard on the pro-communist groups who campaign for Russia to return to that system.I am fascinated by the fact that the Right wing haven't got used to the idea that Russia isn't Communist any more.
Absolutely, if we want to have policing, we must be prepared to be policed ourselves. It's not them and us, it's a community partnership.It wouldn't bother me one iota if the police stopped and searched me every time I went shopping.
they probably know most of the likely offenders - if only our prisons are not already so full.so they were checking people, who they knew wouldn't be a problem and couldn't check all the people that they knew were likely offenders.
Perhaps what he said (in jest) we could do would be to conscript the new would be inmates as Cockle Pickers in Morecambe Bay, which would at least mean that they were gainfully employed, enjoyed fresh air and Stunning Sea views and a lifestyle guaranteed to improve physical fitness to the point where only the fit ones remained and reduced the strain on the NHS, and the Epiphany gained from this experience disinclined them to repeat offend after release.they probably know most of the likely offenders - if only our prisons are not already so full.
