Feck me a joke which let's be honest has reasonable argument given the hundreds of thousands of legal written evidence of abuse.
The minute they are reminded about home truths they go all falling down.
How can this sort of punishment stand up in Scottish law?
As previous poster said the minute she admits she is wrong is her downfall.
I'm sure a certain rangers minded QC would have helped her out as the factual evidence is staggering. So making a colloquial joke yes may be offensive but a joke none the less
I know a guy who was a Sgt and a black officer took umbrage that he scored another officer higher than him in a fitness test.
The black officer complained the said Sgt made a racist joke and got two others to back him up.
The Sgt was immediately suspended before they carried out any investigation.
Once they did the two backing up the black guy admitted the Sgt did not make a racist joke and that they were coerced by the black officer.
Nothing happened to black officer or the other two.
The Sgt, who admitted telling a joke, was taken up on discipline charges and found guilty at a hearing for telling a joke that may offend someone, somewhere at sometime. He was demoted and shunned by Strathclyde senior management.
It took him years to get back to where he should have and the only reason he did was he engaged a QC who got hold of the hearing tape ( had to go to court to get them) and the QC was going to play them in court as the ex Sgt was suing Strathclyde Police. A deal struck as they didn’t want to be shown up how corrupt they were. The 3 liars admitted on tape they were liars.
Laughing my arse off at the problems and suspensions that senior management in Police Scotland are now having to deal with. From being bullies and promoting the bhoys on their side to getting it hard is brilliant.
Police Scotland is full of hunks who grass each other up at the first opportunity. They have filled it with all kinds who are not able to carry out the job but are happy to rat on anyone they can.
The incompetence from the bottom to the top, the Scottish Police Authority, PIRC and their political masters is unbelievable.
Who suffers of course, Joe Public
