If you can't trust the police........... But be serious. Are you really trying to suggest the 43 British police forces are comparable to the BiB ? 1 of the 43 (South Yorkshire) most definitely, I think. They were not just involved in covering up Hillsborough but also child sexual exploitation in Rotherham. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotherham_child_sexual_exploitation_scandal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhizBang Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Unf**kingbelievable. Seriously, you just could not make this up if you tried. Monty Python would be so proud. The funny thing is, that it is the actions of the police themselves that leads to the worst tarnishing of their (so-called) reputation. This story is likely to make the rounds internationally and will have tons and tons of scorn heaped upon the police as a result, never mind the heaps of scorn it is likely to generate locally. And they deserve every last bit of it too. Those involved in this decision should be fired immediately. No inactive posts, no pensions or other benefits, just unemployment. They have absolutely no clue what their job is or should be. Reform anyone? Prayut?... Prayut?... Prayut? (deafening silence) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark131v Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Inept cretins that are beneath contempt.... The real issue is the junta, the other scumbags in brown along with the elites and the hierarchy who sponsor the whole sorry lot of them are all hogging the trough and they have complete and utter disregard for their own people and care not a jot for what the rest of the world think This is one of the byproducts of a completely dismal education system where all that matters is how much money your family have managed to steal/accumulate over the years and the lack of any scruples or a moral compass are the norm, scary stuff really but completely predictable....

Jonmarleesco Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 How can one defame something that is at the bottom of the barrel for corruption, competence and impartiality? Instead of shooting the messenger, whose message everyone knows to be accurate, the head honcho would be better employed actually dragging his subordinates, kicking and screaming, into the reality of proper work. Of course, the government could do worse than substantially increase salaries, in exchange for a complete clear out of the dregs of the force.

tropo Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Would just exacerbate things. Going after foreigners who mock them would be like poking a hornet's nest. There's no need to go after the foreigners. All they need to do is go after the forum. That's why mods are all over anything resembling defamation. They really have no choice.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karry Yokie Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I think there has been a mis-communication or a mis-translation somewhere - there MUST have been, right? Describing these people as being 'incompetent' is FLATTERY. It's also an insult to incompetent people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
