Judge labels case 'PC gone mad'

This speaks for itself. Greater Manchester police (an outfit more in tune with political madness than political correctness) pursuades the Crown Prosecution Service (another near flaky outfit) to take legal proceedings against a 10-year-old boy over alleged racist name-calling. Apparently the two boys are now friends and play with each other.

The police and the CPS are wasting public money and behaving like perverse idiots. A spokeswoman for Greater Manchester Police said the force took all crimes seriously and was totally opposed to any racism. Well, we all should be but I'm afraid she's wide of the mark about "all crimes".

Did they ever bother to ask the boys if they had made up and forgotten their grudge? No, because the police are fast becoming tunnel-vision merchants. Heaven help us all!
