Pleb.........I have been called much worse than that by Police Officers in my younger days
and would not be afforded the luxury of running to Mum.
I read today of a Labour Whip swinging on the nuts of Jack Straw to bring him in line with the policy of the day.(Daily Mail).
This story is absolute tosh and a waste of police and parliamentary time.
I have every respect for the Police but none for the point scoring Police Federation.
The policeman is not hurt like that poor soul who was belted with a stick.

Its only the truth, what these people think of the ordinary working man.
Got it in one Cashy. A return to Victorian style sneering upon of the "plebs" by our lords and masters seems to be the order of the day.

As usual completely missing the point about what these scumbags think of us, we all know what the score was in our younger days, times have changed even i know that, doubt if yeh will ever grasp that fact.

Were those the younger days of the workhouse, when 8 year old chimney sweeps knew their place, when the army was called in to quell the 'plebs' of Peterloo?

You're sentiments are correct...Most of us have moved on....unfortunately morons like Mitchell haven't, they still think that they are superior because of an accident of birth!

Because, strange as it might seem, it is not a requirement of law that we be polite to a policeman.

With reference to number two.........doesn't this outburst qualify him for for the name 'pleb' then......it was certainly uncultured to rant on at the policeman(who was only doing his job) in such a manner.

It would be good if the politicians of this country would do their job with such diligence - maybe we would have some kind of chance of rising out of the mire that they created for us 'plebs'.

Wrong. Using four letter words towards a policeman is a public order offence and I have seen people arrested for it.

Theres a lad in the Mirror this morning from Gorton,who got a 16 week sentence fer a first offence, which was "Swearing At A Policeman" twas during the riots n yeh he looked a lout, but that aint the issue, its the same offence as what NO CHARGE has been brought against Mitchell, if ever there is proof that its us n them then that is it!
