    As Allison says,

    "last Thursday afternoon Es*** Police admitted what any sane person had known all along. “No Further Action,” the email to my solicitor said. There was no case against me, and never should have been. Why was my original Non-Crime Hate Incident escalated to a criminal investigation under the Public Order Act? Who thought that was a credible charge when two former home secretaries, a law lord, a former solicitor general, three KCs, two very senior police officers and the nice man who works in Coral the bookmakers beneath my office all looked at my tweet and said it didn’t “come near the threshold” for criminal investigation?"

    Why indeed was it escalated, Allison hints at the answer in her first sentence when she refers to 'any sane person', we're not dealing with sane people, we live in a lunatic asylum.

    We have a guy behind the counter in our local Corals who can convert betting odds quicker than any speeding bullet.

    Try having two Bobbies at your door at 7.30 am on a cold winters morning because you can't stand Crookes.

    Ah yes BT, however, that was under a Tory government so it just wouldn't happen now under your lot. After all, your confrontation must have added greatly to the supposed ?22 billion black hole which Labour never stop talking about at every opportunity. I do wonder who they are trying to convince.
