the other articles I read had a bit more detail and suggest that the police allowed him to go and make a cup of tea at which point he stabbed himself.
I didn’t know that.
You know it’s stuff like that, which makes you realise what a damn decent chap your average good ol’ British bobby is.
They go round to arrest a guy in connection with a serious drug related offence and they let him make himself a nice civilised cup of tea.
No doubt as they smashed their way through his front door with big ****-off sledge hammers and battling rams, the coppers caused the poor man some worry and anxiety. I can imagine what happened next.
Having seen the perturbed look on the pitiful soul’s face, I’m sure one of the coppers must have said to him, “Look mate, you look rather pale, why don’t you go to the kitchen whilst we wait here and make us all a nice cup of tea. I’ll have 2 sugars in mine, and don’t forget the biscuits.”
People are always very quick to knock the police, but it is this sort of civilised behaviour which the British copper so special.
I wonder whether they would also have let him check his emails, and perhaps empty his washing machine, before taking him down the station to nick him. ……I bet they would’ve.

And btw samuri – yep, it was definitely sunday………..that’s my story, and I’m sticking to it.
At all other times I was logged on STW. Probably.
