Can anyone work out why the Daily Mail felt it necessary to shine the spotlight on this WPC???

[sp1814]

Is this just the DM being a bit nasty? Or is there a genuine public interest angle on this story:

Or perhaps it's just a slow news day, so to fill their pages, they feel at liberty taking a personal story and splashing it so that this police officer can be gossiped about by a wider audience?

Oh, come on, all this fake outrage and sham sensitivity - pick up the vast majority of rags and you'll find so called "nasty" stories. It's nothing new. It's like watching the telly, if you don't like it don't watch it - or in this case, don't read it.

I'm not sticking up for the likes of the Daily Mail, but so many people *** off the tabloids, yet still see fit to read them first. Why bother? If you dislike or even hate the rag in question, why even feel the need to give it even more publicity via sites like this if you so say abhor it in the first place? Where's the logic? Or the justification?

All this self righteous indignation and wringing of hands over some poxy story about a confused person is so false as to be laughable and pathetic - as the modern saying goes: "grow some!"(no pun!)

The word deemed so nasty as to be starred out is s-lag.

I dont think that he - sorry she , has thought this out carefully .

What happens when she begins to loose her hair ?

No doubt she will be off on sick leave . citing psychological reasons

[wolf63]

It is tacky journalism.

What is the point in intruding on this ladies life? Do we all feel safer knowing the details of her life?

Life is hard enough without the likes of the Daily Mail making things worse.

"titillation is important to some people, including me"
Shouldn't that read: "titillation, regardless of how it affects the privacy and dignity of others, is important to some people, including me"

[joeluke]

How can this person be called a woman when she is still actually technically a man?

"exactly and you have described accurately a definition of humour"

Shouldn't that read "exactly and you have described accurately a definition Squad's sense of humour"?

[BertiWooster]
