I thought it would end in a sacking. As soon as the Merseyside Police found out that one of their officers was on the leaked BNP membership list they went into a salivating overdrive to get the guy dismissed. It's all very hypocritical, because the police only target the BNP. They don't go after any other legal political party.
Deputy Chief Constable Bernard Lawson loftily declares "We have an overriding legal duty to promote race equality and retain public confidence." Quite! But you don't do that by setting yourself up as the arbiter of political correctness. Mr. Lawson should get a grip. Either the police can join legal political parties or they should not - any of them.
It could be that Mr. Lawson declares, "We have an overriding legal duty to promote gender equality and retain public confidence." The Merseyside Police could be accused of promoting gay issues. They could promote any issue, but is it their duty to do so? I would have thought fighting crime and upholding the law irrespective of creed or colour was their prime duty.
Mr. Lawson is some sort of quasi politician it would seem. That's not good enough. He puts himself in a position where the BNP may find police officers reluctant to investigate crimes against BNP members, such as hammer attacks. This would be invidious and the whole sorry saga makes the police out to be politically motivated.
I would suggest that police officers should not be members of any political party. That way we would have a police service untainted by such party political meddling. Mr. Lawson will find the BNP making hay with this, and he will be just another fodder feeder for their publicity machine.
Stand in the corner, Mr.Lawson!

How can any white English people on Merseyside be confident that members of the black police officers association are not racist?
Well, the short answer to that is - they can't!
Labour's politicisation of al aspects of government and administration is a disgrace.
A non-political police force was a jewel in Britain's constitutional crown.
Now the 'police service' a cheap plastic tiara on Nu labour's Britain's hen-night spending-spree shag fest.
Not very edifying, and banana republic, here we come.
New Labour and policing is a bit like the old "pick n mix" at Woolworths. Political correctness and turning a blind eye to petty crime is mixed in with an ability to storm entry to the houses of law abiding immigrants whilst demuring to the cheesy rants of mad mullahs!
No wonder we think something is wrong.
