Policing the police?

Strathclyde Police take another biscuit! A crumbly mix of fruit and nut! Last night on Watchdog, a serial fraudster, one Richard Sage, who has spent time in jail, was revealed as having "sold" Strathclyde Police a contract for transporting dead bodies in his ambulances. When told of his past, instead of expressing at least caution and a promise to "look into the matter", a very unapologetic Stathclyde police said in a statement "that its joint board approved the contract and that the 'company has continued to carry out its business in line with the correct procedures' ".

So no problems with hiring convicted criminals on a not many questions asked basis then?
