    Default This is just....diabolical!

    I'm sat here almost in tears after reading this....

    Police officers in Staffordshire have been working in shifts to pour 2,500 cans of beer and hundreds of bottles of spirits and champagne down a toilet.

    The alcohol was confiscated from an off licence that was trading illegally and a judge ordered it to be destroyed.

    As Ian Dury and the Blockheads once sang.....what a waste!
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    To quote Marlon Brando from Apocalypse Now:

    Everybody take a deep breath and relax. Look closely at the photograph. Plod is pouring away canned liquids, therefore the only stuff going down the loo is Australian or American - no beer involved.

    The customs service got in trouble a couple of years back for 'destroying' several thousand pounds worth of wines (and this was good stuff, only a few bottles), that were later found to be totally legal or something.

    Someone had some good parties.
