Easter Monday issue. Dispersal order in Southend, safeguarding vulnerable young people, is your vision roadworthy? Appeals, arrests, convictions, jobs.
As a former officer I am ashamed to read that SIX (yes SIX) police officers went into a pub on an anonymous complaint about traditional toys causing racial offence! I'm surprised they weren't armed - they weren't armed were they?? Whoever authorised that should be cautioned for wasting police time when there are not enough officers to properly investigate serious crime or traffic offences. No wonder the public have lost faith in the police service!
How do you justify sending five officers to impound a personal collection of golliwogs from an Essex pub? Were you expecting violence from these toys? Or perhaps a desperate defence of them from the Publican?
Please don't waste your time and test our patience by utilising a five strong force for such a petty, imagined 'crime'.
