Dodgy Copper !!

An old acquaintance of mine, someone I went to college with ten years ago, has become a policeman.
This is of particular concern to me as the chap is a pathological liar !!!

Dont get me wrong - I have enough respect for the job of being a policeman - lets face it - society needs police, although it would be better to spend more on redistribution of opportunities and less on things like prison.

For the most part, they do a dangerous social job with massive responsabilities - it's not all about clamping down on anticapitalists.

But unfortunately, the kind of job where you get issued with a stick with which to hit people who don't do what you tell them is inevitably going to attract a certain type of person, like this chap ****** (I don't know what station he works at.) He's a proper screw-up - a pathological liar who was always a bit of a whipping boy back at ****** College. His dad, with the same name as him, used to be head of ****** Police

You can't have a policeman who can't help lying ?!?! Someone who lies out of habit to get through life's challenges is now a copper ?!?! People's careers, maggiages, lives could be at stake here ! I might write to the Home Secretary... What's more, if he was giving evidence in court, it makes no difference whether he was lying or not, if you knew his character, you'd dismiss his evidence just in case and then some vile thug might be still on the loose...

I'd like also to point out that this chap might have reformed his ways because it's been time since I last knew him, but friends of mine who do know him say he hasn't changed...
