Well , you would wouldn't you.

Nothing surprises me any more!!

People are always 'truly sorry' when they are caught

It would cause her "exceptional hardship" getting her children to school by public transport.
The poor love.

They are superfluous to requirements, another layer of bureaucracy we have to pay for.

A complete waste of money, resources and time.

Quite agree Callistemon. Daft idea. Mainly tories, esp in the shire counties, spend their time demanding more money and criticising other services. And thinking that speed limits don’t apply to them. This isn’t the first.

You just couldn't make it up could you.

We dont have them here ,what is their purpose?

They don't have one!

Driving too fast perhaps.

I just heard this on the radio... five times in 12 weeks.... why hasn't she been banned??

I’m just surprised that, as a crime commissioner, the police didn’t accidentally lose the evidence of her transgression. Her husband took over Anna Soubry’s* seat at the last election.
*one of the better Conservative MP’s imo but one who was outspoken in her condemnation of Johnson.

Um, er ....
thinking ?

To politicise the police perhaps?

Her MP husband has also been “done” for speeding. Why she still has a job and also a driving license is beyond me. What a disgrace.

Jobs for the boys.
She could aways run the school run,i doubt she will get a speeding fine.
IMO she should be sacked.
And if not,why not?.

I’m sure she doesn’t want to stand down from her £76,000 a year job. Who would?

Just read she has a 6 month ban.

Totally agree Callistemon

I agree Callistemon, totally unnecessary and what a big salary for something we neither need or want

I suspect a police officer convicted of 5 speeding offences is 12 weeks might get sacked. It’s not only careless, it sounds like putting the finger up to authority - the authority you oversee. She should be sacked if she won’t step down

Iam64 and, of course, they have to have a department to support them too. Not to mention the expenses they incur travelling to meetings.

We met ours once when the residents here had a problem. a complete waste of time and the problem still continues years later.

This criminal’s salary would pay the wages of two new recruits
