Some people are just never happy :rolleyes:

Everyone* cries for a police investigation, and now complain because the police say if a similar investigation releases information that *could* influence or jeopardize the police one it's a 'cover up'


*usual suspects

I had a chat about the latest events with my CPS friend, and they pointed this out to me…

However, they did deem it "unusual" that this would happen if it was only about Fixed Penalty Notices - normally, this might occur if it was about a potential interview strategy for something more than a FPN; if someone gave an statement to the Gray Inquiry that was not matched by another’s statement, the police might not want to let the first person know this until after it’s been followed up.

[For any Johnson fans out there, don't worry, I don't think the sample size is sufficient nor the audience representative of UK voters, to draw any meaningful conclusions.]

Sometimes you don't need a big sample size. Compare with

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
 
The story so far
- the Met don’t investigate Covid crimes retrospectively
- the Met believe there is insufficient evidence to investigate
- the Met says we’ll see what comes of Gray inquiry
- Gray inquiry found evidence so the Met says we’ll investigate
- the Met says they do not object to Gray publishing her report in full
- the Met says they don’t want Gray inquiry to publish evidence as it’ll prejudice their investigation

What happens next
- the Met says the investigation is proving more complex than they originally anticipated so they don't expect to complete it for several months
- after a suitable period of time, the Met says the evidence they’ve found doesn’t meet the level necessary for prosecution/fines
- the Government says since no breach has been committed there’s no need to publish Sue Gray’s report
- the Government says "national security" means they can't tell you what happened or what, if anything, they’re going to do about it

Thank you, Michael Fabricant... ;)

My holidays are already (mostly) booked - 4 days in the Algarve in March, 11 days in North Cyprus in May, 7 days in North Cyprus in September, just got to find somewhere for 10 days in July (those are all the times we have the pooch booked into kennels). :D

I just had to google that geezer, what a fine looking specimen he is, although to be fair the only thing I could find that we *may* have in common is on his wiki page . . .

In a 2016 debate, Fabricant yelled "bollocks" over a discussion of the impacts of Brexit.

This is turning into an episode of "The Thick Of It"

Quote:

Sue Gray is expected to deliver her report on No 10 parties to the PM without waiting for the police inquiry to conclude, the BBC has been told.
