THE LAST DITCH

Link: Sir Ian Blair’s behaviour is simply criminal – Telegraph.

Sir Ian Blair has no pride. How can he not resign when the following can be written about him?

If the Beano had a leader column, it, too, would be calling for Sir Ian’s sacking, on the grounds that he is a disgrace to his uniform and to the once good name of our police.

If he had the least regard for the officers under his command, he would end their embarrassment by resigning. Sadly, he has never before shown any such regard. I doubt he will now. After all, he needs this job. He is a useless creature entirely unqualified for any other. His only life skill is sucking up to cretinous politicians.

Tom is a retired international lawyer. He was a partner in a City of London law firm and spent almost twenty years abroad serving clients from all over the world.

Returning to London on retirement in 2011, he was dismayed to discover how much liberty had been lost in the UK while he was away.

He’s a classical liberal (libertarian, if you must) who, like his illustrious namesake, considers that

“…government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.”
