Plod getting arsey, when the motives for their latest "safety" campaign are questioned. Who Knew? Rolling Eyes

Police We Know What's Good For You Police

Seems to have backfired, slightly.

Love the accidental Orwellian reference from the representative of the Ministry of Truth and Justice Very Happy

Also, the pedantry (no longer a criminal offence in the UK BTW) around who "owns" the helicopter following bikers around.

I think they need to introduce a mandatory "Don't make yourself look a tw*t" course for their social media team

Perhaps they should let their bikesafe team do the engaging with riders, or did the funding get switched for somehting that sounds similar but is more douchey and generates fines and performance figures rather than money and rider engagement.

Mmm, ScotPlod halted their BikeSafe courses because (Kafkaesquely) they were too popular. Brick Wall
