How much better if this a***hole had been denied the oxygen of publicity.

What I want to know, more than almost anything else, is what do the prospective Police Commissioners think.
Why no press release from the Blue and the Red...we must be told.

I think there needs to be change in the law. In fact the complete act should be scrapped and a complete rethink on the whole issue undertaken. For example here's a segment of the legislation:
1) Any person who sends to another person
(a) a letter, electronic communication or article of any description which conveys
(i) a message which is indecent or grossly offensive
(ii) a threat or
(iii) information which is false and known or believed to be false by the sender or
(b) any article or electronic communication which is, in whole or part, of an indecent or grossly offensive nature,
is guilty of an offence if his purpose, or one of his purposes, in sending it is that it should, so far as falling within paragraph (a) or (b) above, cause distress or anxiety to the recipient or to any other person to whom he intends that it or its contents or nature should be communicated.
Utterly ridiculous law. It's virtually Victorian in it's nature but you all have to remember that of late governments have passed more and more laws which would not look out of place in the dark ages. It's like neo- puritanism. Laws against smoking, drinking, the very food we eat, environmental laws,going about one's ordinary life politicians, especially labour politicians love to think they are better than the rest of us and act like some evil baron passing laws to keep the serfs in place.
Pathetic.

Yet the only public building in which you can legally smoke is the Houses of Parliament.
