Complaints Against The Police

Few things better illustrated Labour's takeover by posh Trots than its conversion to hostility towards the Police. The Police response was to turn into a wholly owned subsidiary of he posh Trots, subsequently known as New Labour. And New Labour's own response in turn was to refuse to pay the Police properly.

However, in these days of "record complaints" against the Police, and in the spirit of strong support for their old school trade union demand for proper pay in the public sector, I do have one or two friendly gripes of my own:-

- Treatment of cannabis as if it were more or less legal;
- Total non-enforcement of the drug laws in relation to universities;
- De facto lowering of the age of consent to 13;
- Demands for identity cards, 42-day detention without charge (not trial, charge), and other changes in public policy to the detriment of civil liberties;
- Moralising denunciations of the newly convicted for media consumption;

And, above all:-

- Failure to patrol the streets on foot.
