Re: No longer allowed to express our opinions?
I don't live in England but I have done in the past for a short time. I always found the London police very polite, helpful and professional. So this does surprise me. On the face of it it sounds ridiculous that they would make a deal out of a bumper sticker. But times may have changed I guess. If there is a law that has been broken however well police are obliged to act regardless of their personal views. BUt they do not have a right to act in a bullying way. End of story.Re: No longer allowed to express our opinions?
It's a bit stupid having political slogans on your car to start with. Particularly something so emotive that could distract drivers who feel the other way.Re: No longer allowed to express our opinions?
Motorists are an easy target for the police. That police offices time would be better spent tracking down criminals and petty thieves. There are some, like in every other job, are bullies and like to throw their weight about . Fried of ours had a" Shit happens" sticker on her car rear bumper and the police made her remove it..Re: No longer allowed to express our opinions?
I am struggling to believe the police actually stopped the motorist on the motorway hard shoulder and did not take them off at the next junction. The police would fully understand that the hard shoulder is to be use only in an emergency and this incident was definitely not an emergency. Something is not right in the report.Re: No longer allowed to express our opinions?
