Another arrogant MP.

I saw that Nana I still think he is disrespectful.

I wonder which gate David Cameron uses when he goes to work on his bike.

Not all police are plaster saints.

Some probably are plebs.

Aah Ana I see. Personally I would be far, far more offended at the use of the F word prefixing it - allegedly.

There had to be something in it, because yes he's admitted that. No doubt a stroppy man. Probably arrogant too. Happily for us in this country we can trust all our police officers to tell the absolute truth at all times.

Where have you been JO4? Not seen you posting or have you been in other threads?

Been on holiday.

You're always off on holiday!
Hope it was a good one!

I'm not!

Yes. Very good thank you.

Well I hate to admit it but I've missed your caustic and often crazy insightful and unusual comments!

I had noticed that something was missing...

The police log of the incident is in the Telegraph today.

Well, I hope that settles it and the plebs will open the main gate for him from now on. (Of course, it won't be for his bike - he'll be emptying dustbins as soon as he gets the sack!) Idiot!

He was warned that he could have been arrested. Why wasn't he?

Kitty - I don't believe for one moment that Tessa Jowell and her husband were genuinely separated - they were seen frequently out together. Just one more sleazy MP.

Lillygran would you have had him arrested for the "fuckings" or the "plebs"?

" but it is policy that we are not to allow cycles through the main vehicle entrance".

Why not?!!!

I'm a cyclist. I DEMAND EQUAL RIGHTS WITH CARS!!!!!

Could it be that every time the main gates are opened they present a security risk, or just that it takes more time than opening a single gate. I can't see what Mitchell had against using the side gate anyway.
It has been established that simply swearing at the police is not a crime, although there are various other offences about using threatening behaviour or causing a disorder.
I don't believe these highly trained policeman would have been aggressive towards him - he is just a pompous, self-important twerp. It would be good if some of the public who witnessed the altercation were to come forward with an unbiased account.

I can't wait for this week's PMQs, though it's a pity that our press is so taken up with this affair that more important world news takes a back seat. Take today's Save the Children report on the effect on children of the conflict in Syria, for example.

I suggest that it is a safety issue for pedestrians and cyclists to use a separate gate from the cars.

No. It's unwarranted segregation. Posh-os separate from us plebs on bikes.

If I was a Chief Whip I would definitely be pompous and self important.

In fact I would probably wear a uniform. On my bike.

What distinguishes a pleb from a posh? Is it schooling, attitude or wealth, or maybe all three. What does it feel like to be a posh? Do you have this overwhelming sense of importance and superiority, with the expectation that all plebs are there to labour for your wealth/personal needs etc.
Do all plebs see poshes as superior and natural born leaders?

Oh dear what a lot of nonsense it all is.
