What an absolute disaster they are proving to be, how can a police force be nationalised rather than regional? my god, what a phuckng farce, we are all scots here, and we all know how different our banter is regionally, and how we all just tick in a different way, what a phucking joke, whoever thought that mob up should be sacked, its even ****ed from a grammar point of view.

I don't know about anyone else, but I find the term "Police Scotland" chillingly Orwellian. It's almost as if they're trying to brainwash you to the effect that if it's "Police Scotland" and not just "the police" it is a force fro good rather than anything else and that anything they do is likely to be right and you're not allowed to argue with them. Think how many times you hear on the news a statement like "Police Scotland attended the scene" rather than just "police attended the scene"
