So Norfolk County Council is concerned that pupils or teachers caught with drug traces on them may be embarassed. Oh, shock! Oh horror! Better not report knife carrying or firearms for the same reason.
Whilst we're at it, don't report murder either.
The police response wasn't much brighter. "What would the officer do?" His duty perhaps, and investigate further?
I would not want any police officer to find himself in the difficult position of having to arrest anybody.
A police spokesman said that they needed a protocol and some guidelines. Now I'm sure I'm getting old. Police officers used to be noted for their judgement in individual circumstances.
It would appear that thinking for ones self is not on anymore and is to be discouraged.
What this government stands for is "Standardisation, Standardisation, Standardisation". Usually to the lowest possible level.
