Title: Hypocrite top copper
Post by: MaxRevs on 31 October 2007, 14:24:09
Quote from a news release: "Chief Constable Meredydd Hughes, who is head of ACPO (Association of Chief Police Officers) Road Policing Policy, has been caught speeding for the third time. On this occasion he is alleged to have been travelling at 90mph in a 60mph limit, which leaves him facing a ban and a maximum £1000 fine if convicted."

This is the pillock who wants even more speed cameras on our roads, preferably the hidden variety. He clearly doesn't believe that speeding is dangerous - unless, of course, it's you or I who's doing it.

This prat cannot possibly be allowed to keep his position of ACPO's head of RPP - it's like having a convicted thief in charge of the Royal Mint!

Oh, btw, isn't exceeding a speed limit by 30mph an automatic ban anyway, regardless of totting-up? What's the betting that the charge is modified to 88mph before it gets to court and that he keeps his licence as it's ", , , essential for his role as head of RPP". Bastards.
