Nanny loves to accommodate all views, faiths and political persuasions; so long as she agrees with them that is!As such, it should come as no surprise to learn that when PC Alexander Omar Basha, a member of the Metropolitan Police's Diplomatic Protection Group, refused to be posted outside of London's Israeli Embassy, because he objected to Israeli bombings in Lebanon on "moral grounds", Nanny bent over backwards to accommodate his wishes and excused him duty.
The only trouble with this "bending" policy (can there be such a thing as a bent police officer?) is that police officers are meant to serve the law:
-NOT THE STATE
-NOT GOD
-NOT THEIR OWN PERSONAL PREJUDICES
Without fear or favour to anyone else.
Needless to say, now that this incident has become a matter of public knowledge, Nanny has assigned Sir Ian Blair to urgently inquire into the issue.
A senior source in the Metropolitan Police Federation said:
"Officers should not be allowed to pick and choose where they work in this way."
It is ironic that Sir Ian will be investigating this, as many blame him for the culture of political correctness that has infested the Metropolitan Police since he took over in February last year.
PC Nadeem Malik, an executive committee member of the Association of Muslim Police, said:
"There are around 300 Muslim staff working in the Met
and a number of Muslim police working in the diplomatic protection group
who do not have problem covering the Israeli Embassy.
These officers are Londoners, and Met police officers first and foremost."
Exactly, well said!
Ex-Met Flying Squad commander John O'Connor, said:
"This is the beginning of the end for British policing.
If they can allow this,
surely they'll have to accept a Jewish officer not wanting to work at an Islamic national embassy?
Will Catholic cops be let off working at Protestant churches?
Where will it end?
This decision is going to allow officers to act in a discriminating and racist way.
When you join the police, you do so to provide a service to the public.
If you cannot perform those duties, you leave.
The Metropolitan Police are setting a precedent they will come to bitterly regret.
Top brass granted his wish
as they were probably frightened of being accused of racism.
But what they've done is an insult to the Jewish community."
Just in case the Met haven't yet got the message. Police officers are meant to serve the law:
-NOT THE STATE
-NOT GOD
-NOT THEIR OWN PERSONAL PREJUDICES
Without fear or favour to anyone else.
Write this down and learn it for prep, I will be testing you on it later!
It isn't us that need testing on it!

British Policing has been dead for many, many years, I'm sorry to say.
The modern Bobby is as useless as tits on a boar-hog.
A real shame, Robert Peel must be rolling over in his grave.
Just out of curiosity ... do you really want a Muslim with known ties to a radical islamist sect assigned to stand guard in front of the Israeli embassy?
