Third World Britain, Part 94

A Pakistani student interviewed on the news last night asked, in a manner obviously intended to be rhetorical, whether there was any other country on earth where the Police went around hanging up election posters.

Well, here in the land of the Mother of Parliaments, the Police cars accompanying Tony Blair on the campaign trail last time had the words "Vote Labour" emblazoned immediately above and below the word "Police".

Of course, that was before the pay dispute.

But even so.
