Mate, Peter Hitchens has spoken a load of bollocks. I was a Policeman for 14 years and know exactly the protocol and process.

But it’s pointjess arguing with you as you come up with your smug rhetoric.

You can’t educate those who won’t listen. Hichens is talking shite and you’re regurgitating it .

The Daily Mail if it wasn’t so lazy, Lying and eager for cheap publicity could have found out that was proper procedure that was carried out but as ever did their usual printing of bullshit.

Go ask your Police Friends and they’ll tell you all was done correctly.
