Out of touch

Peter Black finds himself curiously out of tune with Evening Post readers who appear to have given a negative reaction to his critical press release over Jack Straw statement’s about lazy cops. There is little empathy with the AMs outrage over what he calls “a gross slur on the professionalism of a hard-working but under-resourced profession” by the Justice Minister. In fact, most seem to agree with the view that some police officers might actually prefer staying in the warmth of the police station than getting out on the beat.

What's the betting that the coming weeks see something a little less positive about local policing issued from Mr Black's office?

Update: Black finds himself eclipsed on the political unreality front by Labour’s Swansea West compromise candidate Geraint Davies who wants to screw up close off Wind Street for seven nights a week. Among his reasons is that it would be an effective “anti-terrorist” measure. Someone in the local party needs to take the nurk aside and explain to him what a “Trebanos Commando” actually means.
